What Is Digital Signage?

That’s a great question!  We often get a lot of questions about what digital signage means but there’s no question that you’ve seen digital signage everywhere.  You can’t walk into a movie theater, restaurant or even a school anymore without seeing digital signage.  Because it’s all around us, the name is a catch-all for all kinds of different technology being used in lots of different ways for different digital signage purposes. According to it’s definition on Wikipedia:

“Digital signage is a sub-segment of signage. Digital signs use technologies such as LCD, LED and Projection to display content such as digital images, video, streaming media, and information. They can be found in public spaces, transportation systems, museums, stadiums, retail stores, hotels, restaurants, and corporate buildings etc, to provide wayfinding, exhibitions, marketing and outdoor advertising.

So, in summary, digital signage consists of any size screen displaying any type of content for any reason.  That’s an incredibly broad description and one of the main reasons that the average person looking to install a digital signage network can get easily confused. Let us help clear a few things up!

Benefits of Digital Signage

Customer Engagement

Touch screen technology allows customers to interact with content displayed onscreen. Digital signage engages the consumer without requiring employee interaction. As a result, they get the information they need to make a purchasing decision and employees are free to provide help where only a human can. The use for this technology can be used in a range of industries including restaurants and schools.

Manage Remotely

With digital signage, displays in numerous stores located throughout the country can all be changed at the same time from one remote location. If a company wants to advertise a new product or announce an upcoming sale, they can create a new ad, confident that it will be deployed across all of their locations at the same time with the exact look they want.

Showcase your products

Displays can also be used to attract passersby who may otherwise have never entered a brick-and-mortar business. While traditional signs may attract attention such as product displays, mannequins, etc., digital signage has a very powerful advantage: it can leverage motion. This is one of the reasons digital signs capture an average of more than 400% of views than that of static signs.

Industries That Can Benefit From Digital Signage

Healthcare

Hospitals and clinics have been among some of the fastest adopters of digital signage. Digital signage is an efficient and cost-effective way for medical facilities to keep patients, staff and visitors informed at all times. They can also provide relevant and timely information for patients, staff and visitors, can give directions to visitors and patients in the facility and may also be used to promote hospital services. 

Retail

The use of advertisements is not a new concept in retail.  Digital signage and has been used by stores successfully for quite a while. Businesses can efficiently communicate with customers in the store to promote and provide information on products and services and to strengthen brand awareness. With dynamic digital signage, managers can set up and manage their signs easily in the store or from the corporate office to any number of stores. Different messages can be targeted to different locations and easily updated at anytime from anywhere.

In corporate spaces, digital signage is used to communicate with employees, provide information and updates on corporate events and activities in real-time, product announcements, HR information, company bulletins, inventory updates, upcoming meetings, training procedures, etc. This is especially relevant in places where there may be disconnect among employees, such as staff rooms, building lobbies, warehouse floors, employee breakrooms and more.
