Your business is a reflection of you. Whether it's a retail store, restaurant, office building, or any other type of business, you want your space to be inviting and eye-catching. 

One great way to make sure your business stands out from the crowd is through exterior painting. Here are three areas you can paint outside your building that will help bring attention to your business.

Building Exterior

The exterior of your building is the first thing people will see when they approach it, so it's important to make sure it looks good. You don't have to use the same color for your whole building either. Consider using multiple colors to create a more interesting look.

You can use bold colors or subtle shades that coordinate with the rest of your branding. For example, if you have a blue logo, you may want to include shades of blue in your building's exterior paint job. Have sections of the building painted in different colors to add dimension and interest. You can even paint patterns or stripes for a unique look.

Not only does a good paint job make a great impression on customers, but it will also help protect the walls from the elements. You won't have to worry about chipping walls or broken-up concrete surfaces if you give the building a good coat of paint.

Parking Lot

While the building exterior is important, don't forget to pay attention to the parking lot. People will walk or drive through it on their way to your business, so you want it to look inviting and well-maintained.

Adding some color to your parking lot can really help create a fun atmosphere for visitors and employees alike. Whether you choose bright stripes or an intricate mural design, a painted parking lot is sure to leave a lasting impression on anyone who visits your workplace.

You can even paint the parking space lines with bright colors to make them more noticeable. That way, visitors won't have to worry about parking in the wrong spot and can find their way around easily.

Sidewalks

If you're looking for something more creative than just plain asphalt or concrete sidewalks, consider adding some artwork. You can draw attention to special events or sales with colorful sidewalk art that passersby won't be able to ignore. But executing this kind of project can be difficult. You'll need to either hire a professional and invest in quality materials and equipment to get the job done right.

If your budget doesn't allow it, you can still spruce up walking paths with a fresh coat of regular paint. Choose colors that will make the area look inviting and welcoming, such as bright yellows, oranges, blues, or purples. Try to match the colors to your brand as well if you can.
