About Trade Desk Graphics
The design desk your shop sends its work to
Trade Desk Graphics is an outsourced design desk for sign, wrap and print shops, run by The Sign Network out of Charlotte, North Carolina. Two things come through the door: a bad file that needs to be production-ready, and design work the shop does not have the hours for.
Who we are
Powered by The Sign Network
The Sign Network is a wholesale sign brokering platform built by people who have sold, quoted and produced signs. Trade Desk Graphics is its design desk — the part of the operation that turns a bad file into a production-ready one, and takes on the design work a shop does not have hours for, so the rest of the job can move.
The people who redraw your artwork have sat at a sign shop art desk. They know what a plotter does to a traced edge, what a RIP does to forty near-identical swatches, and why a routed letter needs a clean outline. The files come back built for the back of the shop, not just for the screen.
Graphic design
A designer for your shop, without the payroll
Vectorization is where most shops start with us. The graphic design desk is where they stay. Sign-industry designers on US Eastern hours take the brief — logo, copy, sizes, substrate, deadline — and send back production-ready files with the source included. Hire the desk by the hour, by the month, or put a dedicated designer on your schedule by the week.
- Signage — channel letter layouts, storefront renderings, monument and pylon layouts, permit and shop drawings
- Vehicle — full and partial wraps, fleet templates, box truck and trailer graphics, wall murals
- Print and marketing — business cards, brochures, direct mail, menus, labels, presentations, apparel artwork
- Artwork and cleanup — logo vectorization, raster-to-vector redraws, color separations, file prep and preflight
Hourly from $20, monthly plans from $159, weekly plans from $649. Unlimited revisions within the brief, unlimited team members, no contracts. Multi-location and franchise systems get custom pricing after a full walkthrough. See the coverage plans →
How we work
Trade only. White label. Quote first.
- Trade only. We work for shops, not for their customers. If you are not in the sign, wrap, print, screen, embroidery or promo trade, we are not the right desk.
- White label. Your customer never sees our name on anything.
- Quote before pay. The industry does not pay before it sees a number, and neither should you. You get the tier, the price and the turnaround by email, you approve, then you pay.
- Monday–Friday. Files come back in 24–48 hours during the business week. Rush is quoted and only promised when we can hit it.
What we will and will not claim
Honest about the edges
- We redraw artwork. We do not design logos from scratch, lay out wraps, or digitize for embroidery.
- We say 24–48 hours because that is what we hit. We do not say “overnight” unless we have quoted it on your job.
- If a detail in your file is unreadable, we ask you. We do not invent.
- If we plainly got it wrong, the redo is free. That is the whole guarantee, and it is enough.
