THE SPINJAS BLOG # How to Hire a Sign Spinner (and What to Ask Before You Book) November 10, 2026 To hire a sign spinner, find a company that covers your city, tell them your address, dates, hours and message, approve a sign design, then confirm the corner before the first shift. The whole thing can move quickly. The part worth slowing down for is choosing who you hire, because the person on your corner is your business's first impression for everyone driving past. ## Step 1: Decide what the corner has to do Start with the goal, because it shapes everything else. A grand opening needs noise for a few days. A model home needs drivers to find a turn they keep missing. An apartment community in lease-up needs a steady presence on the weekends people go looking. A retail sale needs one clear offer and a date. Write that down in one sentence before you call anyone. If you can't say it in one sentence, a driver can't read it in three seconds. ## Step 2: Have these details ready - The address, and the road most of your customers arrive on. - The dates and hours you want covered. Weekends and the windows when your customers are already out tend to matter most. - The message. Short wins: the name, the offer and an arrow. - How many corners you need. One entrance is one spinner. A community with two approaches may want two. ## Step 3: Ask these questions before you book - Are you licensed and insured for working at busy intersections? Any company should answer this without hesitating. We are. - How are your spinners trained? Spinning is a skill, and a spinner who drops the sign on the shoulder of a six-lane road is not advertising for you. Our crews practice together every month. - Will they be in uniform? Your brand is standing next to them, so they should look like they're at work. Ours are. - Is the sign included? Ours is. Every campaign comes with a custom printed, double-sided arrow sign made for your promotion. - Who chooses the exact corner? You want a company that thinks about which side of the road can actually turn in, and where the spinner can stand safely. - Are sign holders allowed there? Rules vary by city and a few places restrict them. Ask who checks before anyone is scheduled. ## What affects the cost Sign spinner pricing comes down to a few things: how many hours you run, how many spinners you need, where the campaign is, and the sign. We quote each campaign rather than publish a rate card, because a Saturday at one entrance and a month of corners across a metro are very different jobs. Asking for a quote is free and takes a couple of minutes. ## How far ahead to book Your sign has to exist first. Plan on 3 to 5 business days for the sign once you've approved the artwork, and leave time for that approval. For a grand opening or a big weekend, reach out a few weeks ahead so the date, the design and the crew are all settled well before you need them. ## Finding sign spinners near you The Spinjas are headquartered in Naples, Florida, with local teams across Florida and in Los Angeles, Seattle, Portland and Denver, and run campaigns in 49 metro areas across 22 states.
