Which sign looks better

[Harper]

I need to finalise this A Frame sign for my computer shop. Otherwise people just walk by and not even know that you are open.

(Now scantly clad asian hookers on eitherside are currenty being negotiated)

The only difference between the signs is on the second line.
Should I go for ~ Now Open ~ or ~ OPEN ~

Poll closes in 4 days time as I need to get this sign done.

voted #2 so u can use it forever, even after you're not a new store, because the "now open" implies that you recently weren't open.

Now Open? well of course now you are open. It is now and you are open.

Are you going to have a sign that says almost open? You can put it out 30 minutes before you are open.

Sorry I am in a giggly mood after watching the George Carlin links you put up.

If you are going put it that way, it does explain most government offices rather well.

Like how many times you have been down in the post office and staff are just sitting there having thier morning cup of coffee. And they will not lift a fingure to help you until it 9:00am on the dot.

Yes that would be the pre-open period.

I need to have my coffee at some point in time in the morning.

Open looks a little better, and the capital letters help. I assume you're only going to put this out when you guys are open, right? In that case, the OPEN works.

How about "Come in We're OPEN!"

I'm mean, so what, "your open". That doesn't mean jack to a passer-by. Wow, they're open big deal.

But, if you say, "Come in, We're Open!" It seems more personal. As they read the sign they think you are talking to them personally. It's like a tease... "Come in... We have something secret in here that you don't want to miss."

The Asian Brothel is also "open" next door. Should I take door #1 or door #2?

 

[Harper]

Judging from the vote so far, I am just going ahead with sign number 2.
