How often does your shop hear this question . . . . "How should I install my banner?"

As a previous wide format print shop owner, I was often asked how to install banners. Prior to developing the Banner Bar, we didn't have a way to answer this question with a high level of confidence.  Most people had access to "green fence posts" so they would drive a couple of posts in the ground and stretch the banner between them.  
Banner on the ground
​It was not uncommon to drive by their place of business a few days later and see their brand new banner on the ground or shredded by the wind.  Many customers would get frustrated because they thought we'd sold them a poor quality banner that didn't last.  In reality, we produced their banners using quality materials and finishing techniques. The true culprit was the lack of a good frame system to hold their banner.  This problem set me on the path to create a solution for displaying freestanding banners that could withstand 30 to 40 mph winds.
V-Configuration Banner Frame
The opportunity for your shop is to be the Banner Hero by offering a proven solution to install freestanding outdoor banners.  Here's a quick summary about each Banner Bar configuration to help you be the Banner Hero for your banner clients.
