Use few colors as possible
The correct use and combination of colors will attract attention. They could in fact help passersby notice your signs even from a distance. However, too many colors may complicate the design and confuse on-lookers. Use only two or three colors to make the outputs fall under one theme. You can even choose one color with different shades to make the designs consistent. To give you an idea, check out the samples below:

Choose simple fonts
Simplicity could do more help than harm, as such the case for fonts. Simple fonts make your ads more readable. Using them will allow your customers understand readily what important message your yard sign carries.

Highlight an important detail
Remember that passersby will literally have seconds to read your signs. You might as well ensure that you include the most important detail on the signs. If applicable, choose only one word that you’ll write in big bold fonts.

Place some pictures
Use pictures sparingly. You can use them to make plain backgrounds look more appealing; they can even improve brand recall. However, too many pictures may overcrowd the design and bury the more important details.
