Good content poorly managed is not very effective. Digital Signage operations often miss the mark because they do not have a dedicated operator or manager. If the content were a printed poster, there would have been a process by which it was conceived, created and approved. Just because the content is delivered digitally does not mean it should not have the same process in place.
Each operation must have a system owner. In some corporate communications systems, the IT department gets charged with this task. IT may be a good systems caretaker, but they are not in the business of communications and content creation. Many more Digital Signage networks put their content management in the hands of the creative team. If the creative staff has no training in the operation of a Digital Signage system, this approach will not produce effective results either.
A good content management effort requires the staff be knowledgeable in many areas. Criteria such as display location, screen size and information inventory can make managing Digital Signage systems a multidimensional challenge. Add in the potential of using real-time data sources and you have a dizzying array of information to deal with.
It is good practice to create a dedicated or shared staff position that is tasked with running the Digital Signage system and then provide some basic training in how to best design and schedule screens for optimal performance. Seek out a professional Digital Signage integrator and they will be able to provide your staff with instruction that goes beyond basic how to operate the software and hardware systems.
Network owners who rely on software solutions like the Navori Tycoon Digital Signage suite can reap the benefits of quicker training cycles and reduced support costs. The Tycoon platform was designed for the owner/operator in mind so your staff can focus on content and not the technolgy behind the network.
Selecting the right integrator and investing in a proven software solution will not only ensure a rapid deployment. It will also ensure long term success as you grow your network.
