Yard Sign Marketing Kits: 100 to 500 Signs, What Is Inside

What Is in the 100 Sign Marketing Kit?

The 100 Sign Marketing Kit is $930.89 and holds exactly what the product page lists:

• 100 double-sided 12 x 18 inch coroplast yard signs, full color on both faces
• 100 wire H-stakes, one for every sign
• 250 double-sided 3.5 x 8.5 inch door hangers, full color (the print run starts at 250, so the extra 150 are on us)
• 100 16pt business cards, full color
• Free design setup and a free digital proof of every piece, with every order.
• Flat $10 ground shipping to any US address

The signs are the 4 mm coroplast bandit size, UV printed on both faces because a route sign gets seen from both directions. The door hangers are the 3.5 x 8.5 inch size with the die cut at the top. The business cards are full color on 16pt stock. Bought separately those parts are $1,037.87, so the kit is priced under them, and design setup on all three pieces is already in.

What Changes in the Larger Kits?

The larger kits hold the same three pieces at higher counts, and two of them carry extra hangers and cards because of where the print runs start. At 200 signs the box holds 200 wire H-stakes, 250 double-sided 3.5 x 8.5 inch door hangers and 250 16pt business cards, and the extra 50 of each are on us. At 300 signs it holds 300 stakes, 500 door hangers and 500 cards, and the extra 200 of each are on us. At 500 signs it holds 500 stakes, 500 door hangers and 500 cards, with nothing left over.

Every kit, whatever its size, includes free design setup and flat $10 ground shipping to any US address, plus a free digital proof of every piece, with every order. The largest kit costs the least per sign, about $7.10 with everything in the box counted, and the smallest costs about $9.31. The counts, prices and links for all four are in the table above.

Why Is a Kit Priced Under the Parts?

A kit is priced under its parts because it is one order: the three pieces are produced separately and ship together in one box with one flat $10 shipping charge, and the from-scratch design of all three pieces is included rather than bought piece by piece. The figures are $930.89 against $1,037.87 for 100 signs, $1,583.59 against $1,765.47 for 200, $2,268.39 against $2,525.17 for 300, and $3,552.39 against $3,958.97 for 500. The comparison figures are the live prices of a 12 x 18 sign and stake pack, a door hanger run and a business card pack at the same counts, added up.

Preparing your file for print, which means sizing, bleed, resolution and color, is $14.99 once per item through AI image to print, kit or not, and the digital proof is free on every order. The kit also removes a mistake we see on separate orders, where the signs arrive and the stakes were never ordered. In a kit the stake count equals the sign count every time.

Who Is a Yard Sign Marketing Kit For?

A marketing kit is for anyone working a route door by door who needs a sign for the yards that say yes, a hanger for the doors that do not answer, and a card for the people who do. That is a storm-season roofer, a pest control route, a lawn or pool service opening a new area, a real estate team farming a listing area, or a campaign canvassing door to door.

The sample pest-control brand Elmsworth Pest Control runs it this way. The canvasser knocks, leaves a door hanger with the free inspection offer when nobody answers, hands a card when someone does, and stakes a sign in the yard of every customer who books. A hundred signs covers about a hundred booked yards; the 250 hangers cover the doors in between. When the route triples, the kit with 200 or 300 signs is the same plan at the next size.

Match the kit to the yards you expect to win, not the doors you expect to knock. Signs are the piece that sits in a lawn for weeks, so a hundred of them is a hundred small billboards, and that number should be real.

How Long Does a Kit Take to Produce and Ship?

Plan on 5 to 7 business days after you approve your proofs. The signs, door hangers and cards are separate print runs, and the kit ships together once the slowest piece is finished, shipped nationwide for a flat $10 to any US address. That is a production window, not an arrival date; add transit time to the day you need it in hand.

The proof step is where the clock starts, so the fastest kits are the ones whose artwork is ready when the order goes in. Signs, hangers and cards can each carry different artwork, and you tell us at checkout what goes on each. If you want all three designed from scratch, design setup is included, and a complete brief up front saves a round of revisions.

How Do You Split the Message Across Signs, Hangers and Cards?

Give each piece one job. The sign is read from a moving car, so it carries the name, one line and a phone number at 4 inch capitals, and nothing else; a 12 x 18 inch panel holds about three lines at that height. The door hanger is read in a hand at the front door, so it carries the offer, the reason to call this week, and a phone number or QR code, with the top 2 inches left to the die cut. The business card is read later, so it carries the name, the person, the number and the website.

Keep one look across all three: the same logo, the same two colors, the same phone number. A homeowner who saw the sign on the lawn next door and then finds the hanger on their own door should recognize it at a glance. The three files can be different layouts, and usually should be, but they are one brand.

What We See on Kit Proofs

The thing we catch most on kit proofs is a phone number that does not match across the three pieces. The sign file was made last year, the door hanger was made last month, and one of them has the old number or a different website. Three pieces that land on the same street a day apart have to agree, so we read every number and address across all three proofs before any of them is approved, and we flag a mismatch rather than print it.

The second is the door hanger die cut. The top 2 inches of a 3.5 x 8.5 inch hanger is the hook and the hole, and a logo placed there is cut in half. We move it below the cut on the proof and show you where the line falls.

The third is a sign file built single sided. Every kit sign is printed on both faces, and a one-sided file means the back is either a copy of the front or blank. We ask which, and most people want the copy, which costs nothing extra in a kit.

How Do You Order a Marketing Kit?

Open the 100 Sign Marketing Kit page, or the 200, 300 or 500 kit, and add it to the cart; there are no options to configure because everything in the box is fixed. Send your artwork for the signs, the hangers and the cards and we make it print ready for $14.99 once per item, or tell us at checkout to design any of them, and we send a free digital proof of each piece, with every order.

Approve the proofs and production takes 5 to 7 business days, then the whole kit ships together for a flat $10 to any US address. The 100 sign kit is $930.89 and the 500 sign kit is $3,552.39, and every figure on this page is the figure the page charges today.
