For sign businesses, there are many benefits to being part of a franchise like FASTSIGNS, such as receiving technical, sales, and marketing help from the franchise, as well as specific initiatives and programs. In particular, the FASTSIGNS Co-Brand program is designed to help not just sign businesses, but print-oriented businesses of all kinds to expand into new product areas. As a part of the Co-Brand Program, businesses are able to retain their original identities while expanding their product lines and services. The program allows companies to add a FASTSIGNS center to their existing business and receive ongoing training and support from the FASTSIGNS franchise system.

Some common businesses that have participated in the FASTSIGNS Co-Brand Program are:

• Print Shops
