What do our members say about belonging to the largest state sign association in the US?
“When I purchased a sign company in 2020, TSA became an invaluable partner in navigating the industry. Through TSA, I’ve had the privilege of connecting with and learning from other sign company leaders, which has been crucial for my growth as a business owner. My team has taken full advantage of the specialized training, including electrical test prep classes. The value TSA provides is undeniable – if you utilize the benefits it offers it will more than exceed the cost of membership.”
George Jacobus, Highpoint Signs & Apparel, Bryan, TX
“Being part of TSA has been integral to the success of Comet Signs. The relationships we have formed at industry networking events has paid dividends in helping find top notch installers to assist with installation projects. Employee training and certifications through TSA sponsored events has helped develop our employee knowledge base. We have really benefitted from the TSA Safety Group by learning how to work safer which has resulted in increased workers compensation insurance dividends from Texas Mutual.”
Mikal Harn
“Being a longstanding member of the Texas Sign Association has been invaluable for Federal Heath Sign Company.

Their advocacy, education, and promotion of industry best practices elevate not only our company but the entire sign industry.”
