Cornerstone Companies LLC was
founded in 1984 by Bob Singleton of Charlotte, North Carolina. Bob and his wife,
Ruth, owned and operated a commercial sign company, Carolina Sign Company,
Inc. from 1984 to 2005. Carolina Sign Company, Inc. provided signs throughout the United
States while their primary focus was in the Carolinas. Carolina Sign
Company, Inc. made signs for a great many industries; Real Estate, Banking,
Racing, Construction and even for Hollywood movie sets. This vast and
varied exposure helped Bob and Ruth decide what signs were of greatest
interest to them personally. Today, they serve the clients they felt best qualified to
serve: churches, schools, military bases, municipalities, fire departments
and businesses in need of changeable message signs.
Bob served on the Board of Directors
of the United States Sign Council for four years, During that time, he
was able to discuss sign prices with shop owners from coast to coast. Bob
became convinced that many churches and schools throughout the US were
paying far more than needed for standard institutional signs. This formed a conviction for
Bob to change the company's marketing focus. The company's business model was changed
to reflect the commitment to helping people throughout the US save on
their signs. Cornerstone now serves clients throughout the US and has
provided signs to clients as far away as Japan.
In 1997 Churchsigns
LLC was formed to facilitate the change of the company's focus. In 2002, the name
was changed to Cornerstone Companies LLC. Today, Cornerstone Companies has
provided signs to churches, schools, military bases and businesses in over 40
states.
Cornerstone works hard to help prospective new clients
understand the differences in signs and why seemingly similar models differ
in price. Cornerstone began with the Mission of helping churches and schools
save on their signs. To accomplish this Mission, Cornerstone has not
hired commissioned salespeople nor paid for denominational endorsements
which only add to client's costs.
Mission Statement
To treat our customers as we would want to be treated and to make the
process of buying a new sign as simple as possible
.
Purpose Statement
We will never settle
for being just another average sign provider. We will as a team, each
striving vigorously and creatively to be the very best provider of signs in
the United States and abroad.
