No matter how small or large your business is, communicating information effectively across teams and departments can be a challenge. Read on to discover how digital signage can transform your internal communications for a more efficient workplace.
The benefits of digital signage are numerous, from promoting the latest offers in retail stores, to bringing digital menu boards to life. However, workplace digital signage can also be a powerful tool, enabling you to bring teams together and unify employees.
From performance dashboards to meeting room signage and everything in between, corporate digital signage solutions can breathe new life into your employee communications.
Here’s how:
Digital signage solutions like DatabeatOMNI enable you to display dashboards across multiple screens and locations, making them ideal for use in the workplace. This allows you to track metrics including sales figures, marketing performance, recently acquired customers, and more.

While marketing and sales teams can often be found working in silos, displaying information in this way helps to bring teams together and demonstrate how each department relates to one another.
The more collaborative your team is, the more effective their efforts will be, and therefore, the better the results for the company and everybody involved.
Everybody wants to be recognized for their achievements at work, whether that’s exceeding their monthly sales target or completing a particularly challenging project. Introducing digital signage in the workplace is a great way to recognise these celebratory moments.
For example, if you have an ‘employee of the month’ scheme in place at work, you can use digital signage to reveal the winner across multiple locations simultaneously, recognizing that particular staff member’s contributions and motivating future performance.
Digital signage is also a valuable tool in the workplace for embracing smaller, but equally as important contributions, such as thanking a colleague for their hard work and positive attitude towards a task, or completing a piece of work early.
