Figuring out just what to put on reception signage to identify your company can be confusing. You're trying to decide how much information is necessary versus what would be nice to provide. You can provide a lot of contact information, but much of it should be left off the major signage that indicates which company works in that office.
You Do Want at Least the Name and Logo
When someone enters your office's reception area, they should be able tell right away which company works at that location. The company name and logo placed prominently on the wall behind the receptionist is usually enough. Walking into an office where there are no real signs of who works there can be confusing; people will want to check to make sure they have reached the right place. But with the logo right there and very obvious, that will remove any doubt.
You Can Put Contact and Social Media Info Elsewhere
Some signage advice says to place contact info on signs in the reception area. You can put these on a smaller plaque if you want, but they don't need to be so prominent so as to be visible and legible to anyone approaching the reception desk. All the addresses, phone numbers, social media handles, and so on just create visual clutter that can take time to process and sort in one's mind. Leave that information on general business cards kept up front or on one plaque on the wall or desk.
You May Want to Limit Reception On-Desk Signage to Just the Identifying Title
If you're going to have signs on the reception desk identifying who the person is that the public talks to, you may want to restrict that signage to something generic, like a desk plaque that reads merely "Reception." You don't really want to place names at the desk like you would at the entrance to cubicles and individual offices. It's good to let people know that they have reached the reception area for your business (if you've ever arrived at an unfamiliar office after rushing over to the location and generally having a crowded, confusing day, you'll remember that sense of relief when you confirmed that you had arrived at the right place). But you don't want to subject the people at the desk to angry or creepy people who should not be able to get the receptionist's name.
Reception signage needs to be clear enough so that someone who is very lost can easily identify where they are. But putting too much information on a back-wall logo, for example, only creates a visual mess of information.
