BuildASign.com, a bootstrapped online sign printer which also sells home decor items, Tuesday announced it has received an investment from PWP Growth Equity.
The Austin-based private company did not disclose financial details of the investment.
Founded in 2005, BuildASign.com has been on a steady growth track. (Silicon Hills News did this story in 2012 on its success.)
BuildASign plans to hire more employees, invest in sales, test new products and grow its existing business with the investment, according to a news release.
“This year BuildASign.com turns ten years old and we are extremely excited about this new chapter,” Dan Graham, CEO and co-founder said in a news statement. “This investment will allow us to be more growth focused than ever before and will give us an edge in the competitive landscape as we move forward.”
Graham will continue to run the company as CEO. Co-founder J.R. Kraft will no longer be president. David Ferguson and Chip Baird, both partners at Perella Weinberg Partners and co-heads of PWP Growth Equity, will join Graham and Kraft on the Board of Directors.
BuildASign.com also runs EasyCanvasPrints.com and AlliedShirts.com. It has more than 270 employees.
