What is Digital Signage or Digital Display?
Digital Signage solutions are networks of interconnected digital screens that allow the dissemination of information, advertising and entertainment to a target audience. These displays can be managed from a central location, from a single device, and the displayed messages can be adjusted according to the characteristics of the audience or the time frame. Digital Signage is one of the most popular and cost-effective methods of communication for businesses. If you want to implement a digital signage solution, but don't know where to start, here are some considerations that will help you navigate this process step by step.

What is the purpose of implementation?
The first step in implementing a Digital Signage solution is to clearly establish the goals you want to achieve. Whether you want to increase your brand visibility, improve internal communication, boost sales, or provide relevant information to your audience, your objectives will guide the entire implementation. Understanding the needs of your audience and the context in which the Digital Signage solution will be used is essential to create captivating and effective content. Choosing the right software platform and equipment will directly depend on these objectives, and their correct integration will ensure a fluid experience and maximum impact on the target audience.
How do we evaluate success?
To measure the success of a Digital Signage implementation, it is crucial to clearly establish indicators that reflect the achievement of your objectives. These indicators can include return on investment (ROI), but also other measurements relevant to your business, such as increased brand recognition, improved customer loyalty, increased sales, or more efficient communication with customers and employees. Defining these objectives from the beginning will allow you to not only monitor the progress of the implemented solution, but also to ensure that you choose the most suitable solution for your long-term needs.

Choosing the right place
The choice of location for digital displays is a key factor in the success of their implementation. It is important to identify the areas with the greatest impact on the target audience. For example, placing displays in entrance areas or hallways allows for the transmission of welcome messages, essential safety information or important details about the company. In relaxation rooms, displays can be used to celebrate employee achievements, and in waiting rooms, they are ideal for presenting company products and services, including up-selling and cross-selling strategies. Near elevators or on staircases, displays quickly capture attention with short and impactful messages. In addition, window displays are excellent for attracting the eyes of passers-by, generating interest in the products or services being promoted.

Types of Digital Displays and the right choice for your business
There are several types of digital displays , each with specific applications and advantages that suit different types of businesses:
- LED Displays - They are used both outdoors, for street advertising or shop windows, and indoors, especially in areas with strong lighting, such as shopping malls, showrooms, sports arenas, or retail stores. Due to their high brightness and efficient energy consumption, they are excellent for attracting attention and creating a strong visual impact.
- LCD Displays - Ideal for indoor use, offering clear and detailed images, they are frequently used in HoReCa, meeting rooms, airports, clinics, hospitals and offices to display specific information. They are also very suitable for store windows, providing an attractive and clear visual experience, perfect for showcasing products and attracting the attention of passers-by.
- Totems - They are effective for displaying information in high-traffic locations and are frequently used for guidance in spaces such as shopping malls, airports or office buildings, helping visitors find their way around more easily. In retail environments, totems are an effective way to display advertisements, promoting products, offers or events.
The choice of digital display type depends on the location, communication purpose and target audience, with each type offering effective solutions to attract attention and convey clear messages, thus increasing visual impact and improving the user experience.
