Ditch the screaming SALE signs that every small business seems to use. BECAUSE every small business uses them, they become “invisible”, background noise.
Put some personality, and some word-of-mouth worthiness, into your window displays
as you reach the end of your summer clearance sales. Then after summer’s all gone, use this idea to remind your clientele that it’s fast approaching Back-to-School time!
Heck, this idea can be used any time of year…and could easily become your shop’s signature look.
Think about everything that could be in the bubble.
- But it’s still HOT!
- Watcha gonna be for Halloween?
- Where did you say Santa shops?


Love this Idea !! I called my mom up once I read this blog and told her the idea, she loves it !! we are going to pick up foam core tonight and brainstorm the words we would like to use !! Thank you so much !!
Glad you like the idea… I thought it was pretty cool too…and SO appropriate for using the phrases your target audiences would truly USE.
HI Kate,
This is such a fun idea. Definitely will be using it.
