Digital Signage for Inter-Company Communication
Mon, Aug 4, 2008
Interesting piece from an employee perspective on digital signage in the workplace as a means of communication:
In my office we use email and posters to convey communication of upcoming events. Being that I work in a firm with very talented designers, the posters are always great to look at. I was reading today about the use of digital signage becoming the ‘in’ thing to do for large companies that have a lot of employees. The message is always changing and therefore it keeps the attention of those walking by or eating lunch if the plasma/lcd was in the lunchroom. There are so many uses actually and I think it would be a fun tool to incorporate into our offices, but then we’d need to have a media team as none of us has time to come up with content, lol. But I think it is a cool resource for companies – do any of you work for a company that uses this type of media to tell you your benefits have changed, or the annual company golf tourney is coming up?

One more suggestion. Benefits could also include offering local service, medical, restaurants, auto, supermarkets, etc., space on your monitors to offer discounts to the employees. Make sure the offer you proffer requires the discount to be the greatest discount they offer so that they have some skin in the game. Ultimately, you create a whole new genre of “employee benefits” that cost nothing but are available because of the digital signage.
