National Sign Programs: Building and Illuminating Relationships

Every so often, amid the hustle and bustle of business, we are reminded of why we do what we do at National Sign Team. Such moments are profound, heartwarming, and serve as a testament to the value of genuine relationships. Recently, we received a letter from John Thall, President of Planet Hollywood, an embodiment of this sentiment.

John Thall and Earl Enterprises

International Leader in Restaurants, Hotels and Entertainment

We've always valued our professional friendship with John and the entire Earl Enterprises team. You may not know the name Earl Enterprises, but you definitely know their brands. Planet Hollywood, Buca, Brio, Bravo, Chicken Guy!, Bertucci, and Asian Street Eats (to name just a few) are family favorites, thanks in no small part to Earl Enterprises’ visionary approach.


At National Sign Team we know how busy our clients are and we know how busy John is managing this incredible hospitality footprint, so when we received his letter, it reinforced a core principle we hold dear: Relationship building is the foundation for a long-lasting successful venture. This isn’t mere rhetoric; it’s the lifeblood of our operations.

John's Letter: National Signage for Multiple Brands

In John’s words:


"It's not often that I write referral letters, but when it comes to the exceptional service and quality we've received from the National Sign Team, it's absolutely warranted. Over a collaborative journey with Mike Morelli spanning 15 years, he has consistently been our preferred signage partner for our diverse range of brands, from the vibrant allure of Planet Hollywood to the rustic charm of Bertucci's.


Their ability to intuitively grasp and vividly translate the essence of each brand into their signage work is unparalleled. More than just providers, they've acted as project managers, and their knack for consistent signage while managing local ordinances and permitting is truly commendable.

In a landscape where brand identity is paramount, National Sign Team has consistently raised the bar. Their commitment to excellence, punctuated by their innovative approach and unwavering dedication, makes them an invaluable asset.


I wholeheartedly endorse and recommend the National Sign Team to any enterprise seeking not just a signage vendor, but a trusted partner in their branding journey."
