Digital signage delivers many valuable benefits for users: it provides timely and useful information and updates, attracts new customers, promotes your products and highlights special offers and much much more…
But for us, a key point when choosing a digital signage system is to make sure that it won’t take too much of your time and hard earned profits to run it daily. Here are our top 5 simple ways to reduce your spending.
Our solution has been specifically developed to make smart use of your resources and make deployment as efficient as possible.
Our top 5 simple ways to reduce your spending:
1. Use low impact hardware
Our engineers have developed a cost effective Pi Media Player based on the Raspberry Pi technology. It can output 1080p content at 60FPS, but even when playing full HD video and wi-fi and GPIO turned it still only draws 7W of power!
2. Power your displays down by when you don’t need them
The Pi Media Player uses very little power and can also control your screens over RS-232. Using the Award Winning InStoreMedia interface, you can then set opening hours in your network, and outside of those, your screens will automatically power down.
3. Reduce the time you spend scheduling content
Managing thousands of playlists deployed to hundreds or thousands of displays costs you money. With InStoreMedia’s Metadata rules scheduling option, you can schedule content simply by tagging it with relevant keywords.
4. Reduce the time you spend managing your system
Managing content deployment or monitoring a system’s health costs money. In the Instoremedia System, monitoring is automated through configurable alerting e-mails and dashboards.
5. Template your content
Producing content costs money. The InStoreMedia NOW! User interface comes with a range of professionally produced templates which you can edit from the User Interface. You can display professional animated content without paying professional production prices.
