The History and Evolution of Human Billboards
The term "Human Directional" originated from the role's primary function: providing direction to potential customers by pointing them towards the advertised location. It has since become an industry term for sign holders, although it is now considered somewhat outdated. In modern marketing vernacular, "sign holder" or "sign waver" is more commonly used to describe these individuals.
While the role of a Human Directional may seem simple, it requires dedication, perseverance, and the ability to engage with the public in a friendly and professional manner. Human Directionals need to stand in various weather conditions for extended periods, ensuring that the sign is properly displayed and easily visible to passersby. They may also interact with curious pedestrians or motorists who have questions about the advertised business or promotion.
As the sign spinning industry has evolved, many Human Directionals have transitioned into professional sign spinners, mastering the art of sign spinning and performing eye-catching tricks to attract even more attention to their advertising efforts. In fact, AArrow Sign Spinners, a prominent sign spinning company, provides training to help sign holders develop their skills and become professional sign spinners. The company has a sister brand, sign-rockers.com, that offers services for those looking to hire traditional Human Directionals.
Whether holding a simple sign or spinning an arrow-shaped sign with flair, both Human Directionals and sign spinners play a crucial role in promoting local businesses and attracting customers. Their physical presence and ability to engage with the public provide a unique and effective form of advertising that can't be replicated by digital or print media alone.
