Interview Q&A
How long have you been in business?
A decade
What is your primary product or service?
Signs, both electrical and non-electrical, banners, vehicle wraps and most other outdoor and indoor advertising solutions.
How did you first become interested in your line of business? (if owner) - What is your background? (If owner or store manager)
Steve Morgan, owner of Designer Signs, has been in the sign business for thirty years. Steve learned the trade back in the days of hand lettering and brush work. Today the business is much more sophisticated with computer graphic technology. We find that combining the traditional skills and sign layout basics with modern technologies makes for some incredible opportunities to create knockout signage for our customers.
How do you differentiate yourself from other businesses in your category and area?
We do what other businesses can't, or don't want to because it is outside of the box. If you want a classic Chevy protruding from your sign, we can do it. If you have a logo that needs to be cleaned up and made to dazzle, we can do that. If you want a monument rather than a sign, say, a 20 foot tall rubber duck, we can do that. Our in-house slogan is "If you can imagine it, we can do it."
How many locations do you have and do you have plans to expand?
Just one. We have no ambitions to create additional branches. We love what we do and we love the Rogue Valley.
Provide detailed directions to your location
We are located on Highway 99 a few miles north of the Rogue Valley Mall. We are next door to Providence Central Point. Look for the Dutch Brothers in our parking lot. If you reach the Grange Co-op you have gone too far. Our shop is located in the Star Center. We are on the right end of the complex. Our sign is very recognizable by its yellow paintbrush.
What type of payments do you accept?
Major credit cards are accepted - Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discover.
Which areas do you service?
Medford, Central Point, and all of the Rogue Valley - from Ashland to Grants Pass and all towns in between.
Who owns your company or runs daily operations?
Steve Morgan
What are your hours of operation?
9 am to 5 pm Monday through Friday
What is the best compliment anyone can give you?
We surpass our customers' expectations. We are conscientious and operate from a deep sense of personal integrity in everything that we do for our customers.
What is your favorite quote or Bible verse?
God helps those who help themselves
