Digital Signage for Information in Restaurants

What happens when you are the owner of a restaurant and decide to bring out a special menu this week, but still don’t know how to tell your customers about this change in your restaurant and also intrigue their taste buds? In the past, you would need to design an advertising banner, get it printed and position it in the window display. After a specific event is over, the banner would be taken and thrown away, without being reused. This is not only uneconomical, but also un-ecological making it very inefficient.

The advantages of utilising an LED screen are:

  • Have constant control over the content of the message
  • Do not have to create a new banner each time you change the offer
  • Capability of easy content editing
  • Opportunity to change the content of the marketing message in real-time
  • React flexibly to the situation
  • Clarity of image is Eye-Catching

As the saying goes, a person eats with their eyes, therefore it’s imperative in Restaurants to trigger the sense of taste with strong visual imagery. 

In supermarkets, the current offer is also an important topic, since it changes from day to day. Illuminated LED window displays are crucial in guiding the customer visually and motivating them to buy the goods. In this case, illuminated LED displays can serve as a visual sign to alert the customer to the current offer and therefore promote targeted sales.

Use of LED screens in the Fashion and Beauty Retail Industry 

Fashion and Beauty sectors are one of the most firm and substantial industries. With customers spending billions of pounds annually, it is imperative that fashion and beauty outlets display their products in colourful and attractive window displays, whilst also being cohesive with different brands identity. In this case, visual merchandising teams often use illuminated LED screens in combination with static elements. The high resolution of LED screens and the true display of colours allows creative teams to display content in high quality, which is essential to the promotion of fashion.

In this case, the undeniable advantage is the dynamics of the content, simply put, the customer is more attracted to the video in high definition showing the new collection against a colourful, striking background, rather than on a faceless mannequin. As you can imagine these factors are crucial for increasing footfall of your store. The same is valid for the cosmetic industry, where video presentations are much more appealing than static photos. 

The beauty of LED screens allows for long term installation in Retail Window Displays, with minimal intervention post installation needed. This makes it a highly suitable technology for Retailers promoting a continuing campaign.

LED Screens Serving the Automotive & Furniture Marketing

Though it may not seem so at first glance, retail window display promotion for the automotive and furniture industry has many similarities. The main common factor is to offer several variations of one product. Whether it’s the different colours of a sofa or a different type of wheels for a car. With the aid of illuminated LED screens and digital software, creatives in these fields have many opportunities to display their products in real-time and in real-scale. For example, a large-format LED screen in a car showroom. Nothing is easier than displaying a 3D model of a car in real size and immediately incorporating the modifications the customer requires instead of browsing through a catalog or displaying the offer on a small screen. LED screens thus provide a means of presenting products with a maximum degree of realism.

People with a great aesthetic sense are often drawn to design furniture products. They tend to be surrounded by beautiful things. They want to stand out from the crowd.
