Accreditation- What does it really mean?
A phrase I heard once a few years ago really stuck with me. And it goes like this…
“If you think hiring a professional is expensive wait until you hire an amateur..”
If you are a retailer, an office business, or a government agency, it doesn’t really matter because we all have business liabilities. Most times they can be overlooked because we are not thinking about the potential damage or harm contractors or suppliers can do.
A fall off the ladder, installation of the wrong part, high winds, incompetent untrained workers, and the list goes on and on. All can result in lawsuits and personal injuries to contractors’ staff, your employees, or even your customers. Not to mention damage to storefronts, vehicles, and electrical systems.
We don’t think of it until it actually happens, then it’s a huge problem and you can’t go back and change your initial decisions as to who you hired to do the work.
That’s why we believe in safety first and can boast that at Sign a Rama we have not had an accident in over 16 years!
In our daily management reports, before even getting into company performance, we always address the safety issues first. That’s the way it’s been since we opened and we have been lucky that we have been accident-free. Better safe than sorry.
Accreditation by third-party agencies like Contractor Check is an excellent process for any company because it systematically monitors and measures safety practices and recordings over the whole year.
Sign a Rama is a Contractor Check approved company and we systematically have safety meetings on procedures and practices as standard operating procedures.
The net result is that we carry up to $10 million in liability insurance, keep our WSIB current and constantly monitor our safety meetings and practices. We are audited every year to get this accreditation.
This gives our customers assurances that we have legal, trained labor and safe practices.
We are also proud members of the American Marketing Association which we are in good standing.
What this means is that we practice fair business practices with no unethical high-pressure sales tactics and do not manipulate prices or collude with other companies. We offer a fair price for outstanding services and understand the marketing process of brand management and retail business. We also are committed to a host of other high ethical standards.
We are proud members of the Ontario sign association and practice by their code of practices which include safety, fair pricing and honest presentation of company products.

Accreditation is peace of mind and a guarantee that you will be treated fairly and safely not to mention our outstanding creative designs.
