– Keep it current
It’s often hard to keep keep digital signage up to date with the seasonal trends, especially in winter, with Halloween, Bonfire night & Christmas often all rolling into one big season. Alas no more! Create timetables of new content to appear on a certain day to make sure your stores not making a blunder of advertising vampire teeth early December.
– Keep it relevant
If you know your footfall peaks between a certain time with a certain audience, schedule specific content to appear for that demographic. Take rush-hour as a perfect example, you’ll want to display different messages & offers depending on whether it’s the moing, lunchtime or hometime crowd. By scheduling content, you’re giving yourself a huge advantage to those shops who can’t keep so up to date with their advertising.
