Why Retail Digital Signage?
Advertising Content
Do customers remember the advertising they see on screens?
Does advertising on your network increase brand perception lift?
Does the advertising prompt unplanned purchases?

Shoppers Move !!!
Legacy Offline Screens
You have screens but can you guarantee that they are turned on and that they are playing relevant content?
You have content but can you target your customers by time of day or week or make seasonal adjustments?
• Compliance for Digital Signage and Screen Networks
• Relevance with regard customer habits, buying patterns, stock levels, time of day etc.
• Can you sell what's selling or if you prefer sell what's not selling?
Industry Problem
Imitate The Norm
It's not Television and it's not Digital Signage!
Think Poster+ rather than “TV minus something”
Digital Out of Home is a content delivery business
• Screens won't be traditional screen shaped
• Branded fixtures more common
• Device based signage solutions will prevail
• EPOS based networks will become more common
• We will see more Shelf edge labelling
• More active digital signage rather than just passive
Trends
Note: Poor graphic quality due to Screen Shot
Content Delivery Roadmap
Building A Solution
A Clear Strategy and Vision requires a mix of...
Customer Retail PyschologyMarketing CommunicationsVideo / Graphic DesignTechnology – both AV and IT
• What content should go on the screens?
• What's the eye-on-screen dwell time?
• How long should content segments be?
• How should the content be day parted?
• What is the wear out time for content?
• ALSO where should screens be placed, how many and what size!!!
Screen Content
• Most retail sound is arbitrary, incongruous and HOSTILE
• Main affect is to reduce dwell time
• Need to create audio brand guidelines
• Remove inappropriate noise• Optimise acoustics and install
a decent sound system• Consider the whole
soundscape• LISTEN. SHUT YOUR EYES
