From Local to National: How SignTraker Connects You to Big Accounts
If you run a local real estate sign installation company, landing a regional or national brokerage can feel out of reach. Big accounts want consistent service across many markets, easy online ordering, and clear reporting—things that are hard to deliver on your own. That’s where SignTraker comes in. SignTraker is a cloud-based real estate sign post installation management platform designed to handle everything from online orders and scheduling to inventory and billing, all in one place. Today, it’s used by many market-leading sign installation companies and regional real estate firms to manage hundreds of installs per day, without losing control of quality or profit.
What Big Real Estate Accounts Really Need
Regional and national real estate companies care about more than just getting a post in the ground. They want a modern experience: 24/7 online ordering, clear pricing, accurate inventory tracking so panels and riders don’t “disappear,” and real-time photo confirmations so their agents know exactly when a sign is in place. They also expect consistent service standards from market to market, plus consolidated reporting and billing so their accounting team doesn’t have to chase a dozen invoices from different installers. SignTraker was built to solve these exact pain points, which makes it a natural fit for large brokerages and franchise brands.
How the SignTraker Network Puts You on the Map
When you operate on SignTraker, you’re not just a standalone local installer anymore—you’re part of a broader network of SignTraker-licensed providers serving major US and Canadian markets. SignTraker has developed a way to connect independent sign installation businesses through a single technology platform so they can collectively serve regional and national accounts, while each company still controls its own local operations and pricing. For a big brokerage, that means they can get professional, tech-enabled service “everywhere they sell,” using the same ordering portal and standards—making your local business a much more attractive partner.
Inside the SignTraker National Account Portal (SNAP)
The SignTraker National Account Portal—often called SNAP—is the bridge between those big accounts and the network of local installers like you. SNAP is a branded online portal for regional and national real estate firms, where their staff can place and manage sign installation, service, and removal orders across all their markets from one login. Orders can be entered manually, via file uploads, or through API connections to their back-office systems, and are then routed to the correct SignTraker installers in each territory. SignTraker manages the installer relationships and even provides consolidated monthly invoicing and payment remittance on behalf of the national account—so they see one bill, while you still get paid for your local work.
Turning Your Local Shop into a National Partner
Moving “from local to national” doesn’t mean opening offices in every city—it means plugging into the right platform. By running your operations on SignTraker and participating in its National Account and Enterprise ecosystem, your company can offer the kind of technology, consistency, and reporting that big brokerages and national brands expect, without hiring a whole new back-office team. You stay focused on great field work and local relationships; SignTraker handles the heavy lifting of online ordering, standardization, and multi-market coordination. For many installers, that’s the path from “just another local vendor” to becoming a trusted national-level partner.
