At 216-inches, he found this display to be an ideal fit for many professional, commercial, and entertainment settings, including large meeting rooms, auditoriums, and home cinemas. To get a bit technical, the massive display included 4K Ultra-HD resolution, a 120% Rec. 709 wide color gamut, and 500 nits of brightness.

auditoriums, and home cinemas. To get a bit technical, the massive display included 4K Ultra-HD resolution, a 120% Rec. 709 wide color gamut, and 500 nits of brightness. It also offered support for advanced video features like high dynamic range (HDR), which delivers darker blacks, brighter highlights, and overall richer, more vivid color, and Hybrid Log Gamma (HLG), which could come in handy for broadcast media.

Also available with the ViewSonic 216-inch Direct View LED display was the was the ability to display picture-in-picture (PIP) and picture-by-picture (PBP) views, for added versatility in content delivery. It was further equipped with dual, studio-grade 20W Harman Kardon speakers with professional passive radiators, woofers, and tweeters for high-fidelity theater-level audio. The adjustable 500 nits of brightness, along with a high contrast ratio of 20,000 to 1, would maximize the clarity of images in any lighting conditions.

Before continuing down this path, the college’s IT project lead visited an auditorium in which his consultant had installed a Direct View LED display six months prior. The picture quality was stunning. He was ready to learn more about this new technology.

The Direct View LED display, he learned, was made up of smaller LED panels that seamlessly created the larger display. The first phase of installation would be to attach cabinets to the wall. Once those were leveled and mounted, the panels fit quickly into place. The AV consultant showed him a video of a panel being swapped out using a hand-held vacuum tool. The task was completed incredibly quickly, and was clearly something anyone on the IT staff could handle. He was pleased to learn that ViewSonic included several extra panels with its Direct View LED displays, for customers to keep on hand, just in case. The consultant assured him that every individual panel was factory calibrated and would deliver a precise match with one another.

Additional notable factors included the reduced maintenance compared to projection. With a ViewSonic Direct View LED display, there would be no need for calibration, cleaning filters, or replacing bulbs, which required a lift to access a projector mounted on the auditorium ceiling. Instead, any maintenance could be performed from the front of the display, as he’d seen on the panel-replacement training video.

What’s more, installation would be faster and less costly than putting up a ceiling-mounted projector system. Over the term of the 5-year warranty, they could expect to experience savings due to the minimized maintenance and optimized power consumption of the Direct View LED displays.

He discussed his findings with his supervisor, who wanted more information on how content was delivered to the screen. It needed to be accessible enough for professors and after-hours presenters to manage without a call to the help desk.

After consulting with the AV partner, he was able to report back with confidence that in most cases staff should be able to handle content display without needing support from the IT team. The integrated operating system worked just like a familiar PC environment, and would enable users to easily install apps, browse the internet, and play multimedia files. Connectivity would also be easy, with the built-in Wi-Fi. Finally, the included ViewSonic ViewBoard Cast™ software would enable up to four users to connect and share content from their mobile devices over a wireless network.

He also learned that the IT team would be able to remotely manage the display using the included myViewBoard Manager™ software. Using this cloud-based solution, they could perform just about any needed management task, from making sure the display was turned off at the end of the day for power savings, to installing apps.

With all of the information at hand, the decision was clear, and the IT team purchased a ViewSonic 216-inch LDP216-121 4K Ultra-HD Direct View LED display. Installation was fast and trouble-free, and, to date, all feedback has been beyond positive. Students and instructors love the bright, brilliant images. Plus, they’ve barely needed to reference the “How to Use” sheet the IT team mounted on the back of the podium, thanks to the overall intuitive ease of the system.

The aesthetics of the massive displays ideally coordinate with and enhance her upscale brand. And, as she had been assured would be the case, the ultra-high defi nition 4K images were brilliant and detailed even with sunlight pouring through the floor-to-ceiling windows.

Together they reviewed several brands, with the retailer ultimately selecting the ViewSonic LDP163-091 163-inch 4K Direct View LED display. Many factors infl uenced this decision. Most of the LED brands they reviewed were sleek and modern looking. The ViewSonic Direct View LED won out based on price, overall lifetime cost considerations, and the ability to be mounted vertically with tiny 5mm edges on all sides, among others.

For an apparel retailer, portrait positioning was critical to showcasing designers and fashion models. Not only did the ViewSonic Direct View LED enable this less-standard format, it also allowed for the ability to detach the system control box that typically would run along the bottom edge in a horizontal installation, providing the symmetry of a virtually frameless 5mm edge on all four sides.

Additionally, these aesthetic capabilities were offered in an all-in-one solution that would make this busy entrepreneur’s life that much easier. Everything needed for installation was included – all controls, cables, and power supply. Her integrator, along with included supervision from a ViewSonic engineer, would be able to complete the installation in around half a day. After that she would need only to turn on the display each morning, which she could do remotely for all three displays using the included and intuitive myViewBoard^® Manager^® software. With an upgrade to Manager Advanced, she could schedule unique video content for each display, or send the same content to all three.

The retailer was further impressed that on an ongoing basis, maintenance needs would be minimal and any repairs would be minimally intrusive. Unlike traditional TV-like digital signage, the ViewSonic Direct View LED display could be cared for from in front of the screen – without requiring costly, timeconsuming and disruptive removal from the wall. Additionally, she learned that replacing a malfunctioning panel was simple and easy. She was trained to do so herself, and is confident that should the occasion arise, she can personally take on this task.

Another aspect of the ViewSonic Direct View LED that the store owner commented on was the greater durability offered by this newest version of LED technology, which is waterproof, dustproof, and resistant to damage from jostles and bumps, promising a longer lifespan. The displays were a substantial investment for her; it provided peace of mind to know that if a customer elbowed a display, or spilled the complimentary champagne she offered onto the screen, it was unlikely to cause any damage.

Installation went without a hitch in all three stores and the owner has been pleased at how easy it is to manage all three displays remotely with the myViewBoard Manager Advanced software. The aesthetics of the massive displays ideally coordinate with and enhance her upscale brand. And, as she had been assured would be the case, the ultra-high definition 4K images were brilliant and detailed even with sunlight pouring through the fl oor-to-ceiling windows. Fine shadows and details in the drapes, folds and flourishes on the apparel were crisp and clear.

No additional components were needed: the LED tiles, AV hardware and software, power supplies, and cables were included. The bundled ViewSonic EMBEDDED Signage Platform (VESP) eliminated the need for external devices to communicate with the server or to play digital media. The customer appreciated that it was a more compact, easier-to-use solution that would reduce costs.

The AV integrator in charge of the project appreciated working with ViewSonic at every step of the way, reporting that it was one of the best experiences he’d had with an equipment manufacturer. He noted that the ViewSonic team even found a mistake on the design drawings that would have impacted the fit of the display. Further, the ViewSonic all-in-one Direct View LED solution included the services of a certified technician to assist with installation.

After several months of use, the banking software customer has also been beyond pleased, reporting that the solution simply does what they need it to do, with ease and without fail, launching quickly and running continually every day. The huge display is a vibrant and exciting presence in their corporate atrium. Personnel from various departments have successfully used it for presentations, welcome messages, and brand building.

To facilitate connectivity with remote workers, the company added a video conferencing system. When it was used for the first all-hands meeting, the Direct View LED display amazed the fully-assembled workforce with its looks and performance, even in the brilliance of a bright sunny morning in a space without blinds.

The interactive displays increased collaboration and sharing, and students seem more engaged in the lessons. Teachers particularly like using the vCast capabilities, which enables their students to cast and display work onto the ViewBoard display.

safeguard power usage. No need to be physically present at the display. The convenience for one display alone would be helpful – for a fleet of several hundred, it would be invaluable.

The IT team was convinced that this was the best solution for the districts’ needs. But first, they needed to ensure that the displays would be wellreceived by the teaching staff. Their ViewSonic rep helped out by visiting the district and demonstrating the myViewBoard Whiteboard functionality to teachers and administrators, taking them through several mock lessons.

First, he showed them the ever-present floating toolbar that would be their home base. Next, he used the shape drawing tools to simulate a geometry lesson, then showed them the graph paper template. He then used the browser to navigate to the NASA website, take the audience on a brief virtual field trip, then pull up the accompanying worksheet and began filling it in using the pen tool – commenting that in a real classroom he would send the worksheet to the students’ Chromebooks using the included vCast™ software.

He briefly displayed the music score template, to applause from the music instructors. Finally, to end the day with an English lesson, he navigated to his Google Drive, opened a PDF of pages from a popular children’s book, activated the record function, then used the whiteboarding tools to highlight and label parts of speech. He then saved the recorded lesson to the students’ Drives – providing a study reference and a lesson recap for students who were absent that day.

The teachers were fully onboard and the IT director began replacing the aging equipment as quickly as funds allowed. The district now has 150 classrooms equipped with 55- and 75-inch ViewSonic ViewBoard interactive displays, along with one 86” ViewSonic ViewBoard display in the district boardroom.

During the remote learning days of the pandemic, the IT team worked with the assistant director of instructional technology to train teachers on how to use the ViewSonic ViewBoard displays and myViewBoard software to facilitate hybrid learning. It was a perfect solution, the IT director said: the kids at home could see whatever the teacher put on the display along with their in-school classmates – and they had the ability to interact with it along with them.

Right from the start, the teachers loved using the new ViewSonic ViewBoard displays, and the love kept growing as the IT team facilitated more training. Back in the classrooms full-time, students were likewise big fans, said the IT director. Teachers told her that the interactive displays increased collaborationand sharing, and students seem more engaged in the lessons. Teachers particularly like using the vCast capabilities, which enables their students to cast and display work onto the ViewBoard display. This, she said, opened up classroom participation, even when students were tied to their desks due to covid. With their older systems, she said, they wouldn’t have been able to do this, and collaboration would have su  ered.

The 86” ViewBoard display has been equally useful for bringing the community and school board together for hybrid meetings, which have continued long past the pandemic, she said. In-person school board members have a clear view of parents and community members who log in via Zoom, and it enables more natural communication and better visibility than when each member was looking down at their individual laptop.

As soon as funding is available, the IT director plans to standardize on ViewSonic ViewBoard interactive displays to upgrade every classroom in the district. She has a wait list of requests from building principals. She further hopes to invest in ViewSonic interactive displays to build out the district Girls Who Code program, noting that they could do so much more with the power of interactivity. Finally, she envisions implementing ViewSonic displays at school entryways and throughout the buildings to deliver welcome messages and informational updates.

Many mentioned how well the digital signage fit the unique mood of the restaurant’s interior. According to the family, the targeted promotions have been a boon to business. Sales of these items have increased, and the ability to schedule different promotions at each restaurant has allowed them to highlight local favorites.

The AV consultant further outlined the benefits provided by ViewSonic commercial displays, including the increased durability of full-metal construction, 25% high haze anti-glare screens, and robust 24/7 operation for commercial-grade reliability. Based on the size and configuration of the restaurants’ food service area, she recommended the ViewSonic^® CDE6520-W 65-inch commercial displays with crisp 3840 x 2160 resolution for the menu board. Rated for 24/7 use, these displays would reliably accommodate the restaurants’ long hours.

The displays came complete with an included remote configuration software system called myViewBoard® Manager, she explained, that would let the owners manage all of the displays remotely from one location. An upgrade to this software would add the ability to easily manage their content as well. Ideal for scheduling and managing multimedia content across many displays, myViewBoard Manager AdvancedTM was available with a annual subscription fee after a 30-day free trial.

Along with considering their consultant’s advice, two of the family members viewed digital signage installed in several retail environments – travelling together to compare their impressions of the displays. Their conclusions were virtually identical. The images on the displays from ViewSonic and other well- known brands were clearly superior. The ViewSonic commercial displays had a more durable look. And the “TV displays” often looked dim or, frankly, cheap – not a look they wanted for their restaurants.

The family then compared the specifications and pricing of ViewSonic commercial displays with equivalent models from other major brands. Not only was the ViewSonic pricing better, with the other brands they would have to individually manage the displays – adding significant time, and therefore, expense. Both the included and upgraded versions of ViewSonic myViewBoard Manager software would enable them to remotely handle all maintenance tasks for the menu boards at their six locations, including powering the 18 displays on and off at pre-scheduled times. The Manager Advanced software would streamline management of multimedia content, and the monthly subscription would cover additional displays as they expanded to more locations at no additional cost. They were sold.

The restaurateurs purchased three ViewSonic CDE6520-W 65-inch commercial displays for each of their locations. While they awaited the delivery and installation, they hired a local graphic designer to create templates for the menu boards. As they worked with her, they decided to add promotional spots for high-margin products.

When the time came to begin using the displays, they were relieved to find that they were as intuitive to use as promised by ViewSonic and their AV consultant. With the myViewBoard Manager Advanced software installed on his laptop, the family member designated to oversee the displays was able to intuitively discover how to create and use multimedia playlists, which he could push out to all the displays from the comfort of his home office. He was also able to create customized playlists for each restaurant, which allowed them to base promotions on that location’s needs.

Feedback from their customers has been overwhelmingly positive. Many commented on the fun graphics and vibrant images. No one missed the old- fashioned printed signs. In fact, many mentioned how well the digital signage fit the unique mood of the restaurant’s interior. According to the family, the targeted promotions have been a boon to business. Sales of these items have increased, and the ability to schedule different promotions at each restaurant has allowed them to highlight local favorites. They plan to experiment with more and varying promotional formats with the goal of further increasing profits and customer satisfaction.

everything needed in one box – from the display system components to the power supply and integrated management software. The product itself included everything needed for executing conference calls using popular applications like Zoom and Microsoft Teams via individual laptops or other devices. The built-in Wi-Fi and operating system would make it easy for users to work in a familiar PC environment for app installation, web browsing, and wireless device connection.

With the space remodel complete, installation of the ViewSonic^® Direct View LED 4K 216-inch display was accomplished in less than a day by a local installer supervised by the ViewSonic team member. The team accessed a company video from their website and had it playing on the screen before bringing the president to see it for the first time. According to the office manager, he couldn’t have been more pleased.

The executive boardroom had always been the epicenter of the most important company meetings. Now, the ambiance and technology fit the firm’s expanded position in the industry. It was also the springboard for additional conference room upgrades. After meeting in the updated space, it wasn’t long before members of the executive team started wanting a ViewSonic Direct View LED display for their departmental conference rooms. Their only questions were about the ability to easily share content both in the room and from remote teammates.

The office manager again consulted with their AV expert, learning that both scenarios could be easily accomplished with the ViewSonic Direct View LED displays. Pre-installed ViewBoard^® Cast software would enable direct wireless content streaming from mobile devices to the display. Remote users could share content though the screen-sharing capabilities of the fi rm’s Microsoft Teams conferencing app. Later that year, the company installed 163-inch ViewSonic 4K Direct View LED displays into four additional conference rooms.

with the best price and support for Direct View LED displays using the new Chip-on-Board (COB) LED technology.

The CEO loved the slim and vibrant look of the display, along with the ability to compartmentalize the space to display content from several sources. He was further swayed by the solutions’ low-maintenance profile and the ability for airport staff to replace LED panels, if needed, rather than requiring the services of a third party – which would be less efficient and more costly. Instead of moving an entire display around for maintenance, the hot-swappable front LED modules allow staff to change any defective piece. An included vacuum maintenance tool uses suction to easily remove and replace LED modules. The ability to service the display quickly and without having to remove it from the wall would mean less disruption to passengers.

Additionally, he learned that the most current version of the technology, called COB, was more durable than earlier generations. With an ingress protection rating of IP54, the ViewSonic^® Direct View LED displays were protected against contamination from dust and other particles and would not be harmed by liquid spills or sprays. These latest ViewSonic Direct View LED displays would also provide more protection against accidental impact. This was an important factor for installation in a space filled daily with bustling crowds loaded down with suitcases and bags while gripping coffee and water bottles.

For his part, the IT director was pleased to learn that the displays included device management software that would enable him to remotely manage all aspects of the device. With a monthly subscription to myViewBoard^® Manager Advanced, he would be further able to control and schedule the multimedia content.

Nonetheless, the project almost stalled when ViewSonic’s largest available Direct View LED, at 216-inches, was too small for the area the CEO wanted to use – a long hallway that connected the terminals with the retail services space. With a call to his ViewSonic rep, the AV integrator had the answer: daisy-chain two 163” displays for an impressive 23.7 feet of brilliant, virtually frameless image.

Based on this solution, they ultimately decided to purchase two 163” 4K UHD all-in-one Direct View LED displays. Installation was completed in less than a day, with minimal disruption to passersby. The resulting display was beyond stunning, and according to the IT director, the CEO has been thrilled with the performance. To date, there has been virtually zero downtime in the 24/7 schedule. Airport retailers and local businesses are running ads, and the massive display caught the eye of a well-known local blogger passing by, who mentioned it in glowing terms in a post.

Ultimately, the airport CEO is quite satisfied with his investment in the huge display hallway, as he likes to call it. The images are consistently vibrant and stunning, and the super-slim profi le skims the wall, giving it an ultramodern look. Not only has it brought in new and increased ad revenue, it achieved the goal of raising the profi le of the airport. Passersby comment on it constantly, and the CEO has received calls from numerous local businesses interested in the technology. He is confi dent that over the next year he will recoup the investment in ad revenue.

As with other large multinational brands, cybersecurity had become a pressing concern. To address these issues, the auto manufacturer company was building out space for a cybersecurity command center. The initial plan was to install an array of commercial LCD displays. The AV rep convinced them to look at a relative newcomer on the market – Direct View LED technology.

ViewSonic offered the technology in several sizes, up to a massive 216-inches of seamless screen. In terms of looks, these displays clearly outshone stacked LCD displays with visible bezel lines. At about a third of the depth, the Direct View LED displays delivered an ultra-slim look; the frame was barely visible. The practical benefits further set the technology apart. The AV account rep was particularly pleased with the all-in-one aspect of the ViewSonic Direct View LED displays. A completely preconfigured solution with a powerful embedded operating system, virtually all the customer would need to do would be to plug it in.

With the versatility to display content from multiple sources, it was an ideal fit for a command center. Users could also share content from mobile devices using the included ViewSonic ViewBoard Cast™ software. The integrated OS looked and functioned like a familiar PC environment, which would make it easy and intuitive for users to install apps, access the internet, play multimedia, and connect wirelessly.

The auto manufacturer company IT team was additionally impressed by the most current LED chip-on-a-board (COB) technology, which was more durable and consumed less power than older generations, while delivering ultrafine pixel pitch and the highest-available resolution. Certified to IP54 ingress protection standards, the ViewSonic Direct View LED displays were dust and water resistant and provided greater protection against collisions. The new technology also provided a wider viewing angle of 170-degrees.

The team ultimately purchased the ViewSonic model LDP163-09, a 163-inch 4K Ultra HD Direct View LED display. Installation took around six hours, far less than it would have taken to install an LCD wall of similar size. The IT team responsible for maintenance was happy to see the front placement of the LED panels in action – clearly this display would be easier and less time-consuming to maintain than a video wall.

According to the AV account manager, the installment in the command room quickly garnered a great deal of attention from the powers that be, who were pleased with the phenomenal price-point for such a large, stunning display with a 5-year warranty that would also reduce maintenance time. Of course, they were also familiar with ViewSonic’s reputation for tremendous service and support. As the AV account rep summed it up, they know from fi rsthand experience that with ViewSonic they get the complete package – great products backed by great support.

In line with the district’s reputation for commitment to professional development, district leaders agreed to compensate teachers for time spent training with the ViewBoard interactive displays prior to their installation. A ViewSonic trainer held 10 two-hour zoom trainings, each covering the same ViewSonic Level 1 Module 1 lessons. Teachers were paid for their time spent after contracted hours and were allowed to attend the trainings as many times as they liked.

“Our ViewSonic trainer, George, did such a great job with the virtual training,” said Harris. “It wouldn’t be the easiest thing to do – teaching how to use a touch-based device on Zoom – but he did it. The teachers found it very valuable.” One week after the training, the most ambitious teachers were getting students out of their seats, working at the boards, and mirroring content to and from their Chromebooks. Other teachers were getting their feet wet with the intuitive teacher-centered tools on the one-touch toolbar. Student enthusiasm was palpable. Younger cohorts enjoyed anything from simple annotation, starting and stopping the timer, and erasing content – all perfect stepping stones for where the technology would take them. Virtually all students were more engaged with content displayed on the ViewBoard displays.

With around 70% of the ViewBoard solutions deployed, Harris reported that the next steps would include training in using the myViewBoard lesson creation software, which will enable teachers to develop and share content from their Google Drives.

[The owner] was delighted at how easy it was to return it to her preferred height with a push of a button, thanks to the ability to save up to three different height settings. That afternoon she put in an order for two more kits. She plans to purchase more if necessary to meet customer demand while allowing her to keep one permanently stationed at her facility.

ViewBoard Cast™ content sharing software further enabled easy content streaming from mobile devices onto the display.

The ease of the ready-to-use kit would allow the company to o  er the solution at a lower price-point. It contained everything needed to deliver a huge 135-inch display in a more cost-conscious way. In particular, setup could be accomplished in a manner of minutes – far less than what was required to mount, level, and fine-tune traditional LCD displays. Because it would be easy to deploy, over-and-over again, it would reduce labor costs compared to a mounted solution, or even other, less modular, cart-based options.

Everything in the included storage case was pre-assembled. The LED modules and cabinets were assembled atop a motorized cart that simply rolled out of the case and unfolded to its full size. The system control box came attached to the bottom edge of the display. And that was it. The smooth and silent 360° rotating wheels would let clients position the display exactly as needed in their space. Nothing else was required beyond a 20amp power outlet to plug it in. The motorized height adjust would allow for easy fine-tuning to fit perfectly in virtually any booth or meeting space.

Before making the final purchase decision, the exhibit company’s installation team tested it out. As promised, setup took a matter of minutes. They were convinced that even those with limited technical knowledge would be able to manage every aspect – although depending on the location they may have to allow for a labor union contractor to plug it in.

The owner of the company purchased one kit, with the intention of buying more if the product became popular among her customers. Until they had their first interested client, she used the display in their showroom, with scrolling content of their recent booth builds and testimonials from satisfied customers.

Her team began pitching the new display. It wasn’t long before a client – impressed by the price-point for such a large, dramatic display – wanted to use it at an upcoming trade show. To say the client was thrilled would be an understatement. Larger than four 67-inch LCD displays combined – but without the distraction of lines – the vibrant display pulled visitors into the booth. The client reported that their lead volume was signifi cantly higher than usual for this type of event.

The included flight-ready case facilitated easy transport and delivery and the client was impressed by the protective packaging and ease of assembly. Setup, he reported, took less time and effort than with other types of (much smaller) displays they had rented in the past. Loading and running their content, he said, was just as easy and trouble-free.

When the display returned to home base, the owner of the exhibit company was happy to have it back in the showroom, helping promote their services. She was delighted at how easy it was to return it to her preferred height with a push of a button, thanks to the ability to save up to three different height settings. That afternoon she put in an order for two more kits. She plans to purchase more if necessary to meet customer demand while allowing her to keep one permanently stationed at her facility.

When [the owner] saw it in person, the display was bright and stunning. Text was crisp and legible while the images were clear and vibrant. Line-item lists like menus popped off the screen. Guaranteed to play multimedia from internal storage or a USB fl ash drive for up to 16 hours a day, seven days a week, this model was less costly than those with 24/7 playback – perfect for their needs.

like hers install this type of equipment. She found what she was looking for at a Chamber of Commerce networking event: a local AV installer well-versed in commercial display solutions for small-to-medium sized retailers and restaurants – not just home theater installs, though they did that, too.

After listening to her goals, the AV engineer recommended that they only consider reputable brands, which could deliver the performance and reliability she wanted. While she knew from her research that she could find less expensive options, she agreed. She and her brother were too busy handling other aspects of the business (and their lives) to invest in anything other than a solid solution with a reliably long lifespan. Among the highly rated wellknown brands, ViewSonic professional-quality commercial displays had exceptional pricing. Select models were also guaranteed for use up to 24/7, so she was confident that they could handle their restaurant’s schedule for many years to come.

The AV consultant informed her that the ViewSonic brand was known for delivering displays with stunning images, which she saw for herself when she visited their showroom. The ViewSonic^® CDE5512 55-inch display with 3840 x 2160 resolution was top on her list based on size and price. When she saw it in person, the display was bright and stunning. Text was crisp and legible while the images were clear and vibrant. Line-item lists like menus popped off the screen. Guaranteed to play multimedia from internal storage or a USB flash drive for up to 16 hours a day, seven days a week, this model was less costly than those with 24/7 playback – perfect for their needs. Additionally, the included myViewBoard^® Manager software would allow them to remotely manage the displays. If for some reason they both had to be away at closing time, they could remotely power down the displays from their laptops.

Finally, before making a recommendation to her brother, she wanted to understand how they would get content onto the displays. She learned that there were two options. They could upload content onto a USB drive, which would then connect to the display. Or, they could purchase a one-time perpetual license for ViewSonic Signage Manager software, which would allow them to create and schedule playlists. After a walk-through of the software, this seemed like the way to go.

When she presented these ideas to her brother-business partner, his primary concern was that they create a content plan before committing to the investment. They realized that they would need to invest some time upfront, creating an assortment of template designs that could then be quickly updated as needed down the line.

Ultimately, they decided to purchase three ViewSonic CDE5512 55-inch displays. Two would replace the chalkboard menus. They would use the third to promote high-inventory and high margin items while including diverting content like live weather, sports, and music videos. To ensure that the content looked as good as the displays, they would hire a graphic design intern from the local college to create a menu of templates that reinforced their brand look and feel.

Several months after the remodel and display installation were complete, the duo reported that the signage has been exceptionally well-received by their customers. The regulars appreciated the modern new look and the fun digital programming. Patrons old and new began ordering more of the promoted items – helping reduce product outages and increasing sales of high-margin items. At this point they decided the time was right to install a fourth digital display in place of their traditional bulletin board.
