I found a sign company online, buildasign.com and I am thinking about getting a sign made that says

I would set this sign out on my table during shows where people can see it the whole time. I priced a 9 x 12 sign for $25. I thought about getting a bold flashy color to stand out, but I change my display color a lot and wouldn't want it to clash.
 
I like the idea. I'm doing the same type of thing, but just making a flyer in Word and placing it in one of those stand-up acrylic sign holders. It's a lot cheaper and I can change the colors on it any time I want. The price of the one that you got doesn't seem too bad though. May have to chack it out.
 
As I suggested on another thread, I would write on one of your larger SA pieces with a dry erase marker, and prop it up in a plate stand on your table!

I think that's a great idea!
Those Uppercase Lettering things look pretty on SA too.....right Darby??:)
 
That's a lotta $$ for something you could print up yourself on a neon piece of paper and display in a lucite stand...
 
My director has a large grooved cutting board with the plastic on, and writes NOW HIRING on the plastic with Sharpie. When people sign up they get the board.
