FAQs
What is digital signage?
Digital signage is a cost-effective way to improve the customer experience using a display (sometimes interactive) with dynamic and variable content managed over a network and updated in real time.
What types of interactive digital displays are available?
There are many types to consider, from: kiosks, tables, outdoor advertising billboards, wayfinding plinths, menu boards, advertising display screens, sales display suites, map tables, boardroom presentation flat panels and transparent displays for virtual exhibits. Refer to our Case Studies for inspiration.
What are the benefits of digital signage?
Interactive touchscreens and digital signage are smart, scalable and professional. The message is clear and consistent. It’s better than email, printed posters, static signage and other marketing as:
- It delivers information and news in real-time;
- The customers love it – it’s modern, fresh, current and engaging;
- Messaging can easily be changed to reflect trends, sales, demand or information needs;
- Content can be changed to rotate at interval or show multiple things on a screen at once;
- It saves money by eliminating design, printing, and distribution costs; and
- There is a return on investment – with $$ revenues by selling display space.
How does digital signage work?
There are a couple of options based on technology available, desired flexibility and budget. Either connect devices using a wireless or wired internet, or from a simple USB [see this Digital Directory which runs on an USB].
Can my business or company benefit from digital signage?
The short answer is Yes! If you are a business with a message, product or service to promote then interactive digital signage is for you. If you are looking to stand out against your competitors then digital displays can potentially double audience information retention [source: zugara.com]. If you are looking to upgrade to professional sales tools that pack a punch, then use technology to enhance your sales force.

Is my information and content secure?
We apply rigorous security protocols to ensure that data is protected.
How do I purchase a Touchscreen?
Do you service Australasia?
Yes, we can service WA, Australia and New Zealand.
How much does digital signage cost?
There are many different factors that will influence price. We like to focus on value.
For as little as $5,500+GST you can get started on your interactive digital signage journey.
Whilst the initial investment maybe higher than conventional signage, the flexibility and potential for return on investment (from advertising) can mean the solution is cost neutral.
Basic digital signage screens can start from a thousand dollars, whereas interactive touchscreen solutions, networked with sophisticated content across multiple sites may be a few hundred thousand dollars. Contact us with your idea and we’ll give you a no obligation, budget quote over the phone.
What kind of display monitor can I use?
You can use any display such as a Computer monitor, LCD or Plasma which supports PC input. We will recommend the best option for you from our preferred partners.
Does your content support RSS, Weather, Stock, Podcasts?
We support all common RSS feeds. We provide the editor tool so you may completely customize the look of any really simple syndication.
Can I run PowerPoint?
The short answer is yes. However, content is a key determination of the success of your digital signage investment. We would strongly recommend you read 7 Deadly Sins of Digital Signage Content and consider using professional design services to create content.
