What Square Signs does

Square Signs is an online custom sign printing company founded around 2015 and headquartered in Burbank, California. The company offers more than 100 types of customizable signs and printed products for small to medium businesses, real estate agents, trade show exhibitors, restaurants, political campaigns, and individual consumers. Its catalog spans rigid signage (acrylic, aluminum, plastic, metal signs), banners (vinyl, mesh, fabric, retractable), trade show displays (pop-ups, SEG, tension fabric, table covers), vehicle decals and lettering, and printed marketing materials (business cards, brochures, stationery, wall art, stickers). Through a wholly-owned subsidiary, Front Signs, the company also delivers large-format printing and full-service signage solutions to businesses and public organizations.

The platform is built on a browser-based online design tool featuring drag-and-drop editing, 3,000+ customizable templates, Pixabay API integration for royalty-free imagery, QR code generation, and a generative AI image-creation feature. Production uses UV-cured ink printing applied to acrylic, vinyl, plastic, metal, and fabric substrates, with custom sizes from one inch up to roughly 1,680 inches. Square Signs distributes exclusively through direct e-commerce to customers in the United States and Canada, with no minimum order on most products and free shipping on orders over $99. The company maintains an unusually large review footprint for the segment, with 4.8/5 across 54,144 Trustpilot reviews.

Square Signs operates a one-time product sales revenue model with unit pricing and volume discounts, augmented by first-order discounts (e.g., WELCOME10 / SAVE10), category-specific promotions of 10-27%, and a referral program that issues $50 credits. Its go-to-market combines a product-led self-serve e-commerce front end with an inside sales function for corporate and bulk quote requests. The company is privately held as Square Signs LLC, is bootstrapped with no disclosed external funding, and has appeared on the Inc. 5000 list for four consecutive years (2022-2025), ranking 1,619th in 2025 on 270% three-year revenue growth. Note: one source identifies Arman Danielyan as CEO and another source identifies Gevorg Hambardzumyan as co-founder and CEO with Arman Danielyan as COO; both co-founders are referenced and the conflict between sources is not fully resolved in the available data.
