Advantages of Digital Signage over Other Mediums of Advertisement Digital signage is one of the fastest growing mediums of advertisement today owing to the rapid advancement in technology. It is simply a way of displaying advertisements via a digital medium, unlike traditional mediums of advertisements that use plastic or wooden panels. Rather than have a static message displayed on a wooden or plastic sign, a business can opt for a digital medium where a screen displays important information in a more interactive and entrancing platform. Perhaps the main advantages of digital signage over traditional signage is the fact that it offers much flexibility, greater return on investment, and reaches a wider target audience. It is because of these main advantages that digital signage is rapidly gaining in popularity today among advertising companies and businesses as the most viable form of out-of-home advertising. A perfect example of a digital signage that many people have come across is large screens that display messages on roadways, banks, shopping malls, or along major streets. Often, these displays will be located in strategic locations such as over a parking lot, and will often carry information regarding the businesses around that area, and will mostly have specific items and deals highlighted. Event organizers also use digital signage as an effective way of communicating upcoming events to a specific target audience. Thus acting as a huge calendar showing and reminding people of major attractions that would be coming to the event soon. Digital signage therefore shares the same advantage as billboards located on highways; the ability to reach a huge and massive target audience. However, unlike billboards, digital signage is not only attention grabbing, it is also very easy to change the signs and details of the advertisement with a few inputs into a digital platform such as a computer, thus reducing the high cost always incurred when changing advertising messages. A business can rely on digital signage to pass important information to its customers on a smaller scale. This is very common in banks where clients standing in queues are informed of new deals, offers, and services that the bank could be having. Although such information can be conveyed through traditional signage, opting for digital signage makes it convenient and easy because the advertiser can advertise more information with a significantly smaller footprint. Digital signage is a particularly effective mode of advertisement in areas where line waits are synonymous, because many different pages of information can be displayed in a significant period of time, thus informing the clients in a much more convenient way than using a few static signs and panels. Still on point, most customers find digital signage more persuasive and inviting than its traditional counterpart, as the constant shifting of pages and information will always keep someone glued to the screen. Thanks to advancement in technology, some digital signage can be very interactive, allowing the customization of messages to specific target audiences. For instance, a kiosk in a store can have messages regarding specific products moving across the display screen accompanied by the images of the products. This allows a passive interaction between the customer and the kiosk, by simply watching the screen as they would any other form of advertisement.
