SME Guide To Cost-Effective Digital Signage! 🖥️ When it comes to setting up a digital signage system for your small or medium-sized enterprise (SME), you don't always need to invest in the highest-spec equipment to achieve your marketing goals. Here are the top seven pointers to help you set up an effective digital signage solution without breaking the bank: 🌟 Check Specifications: High-end isn't always necessary. Determine the resolution, brightness, and connectivity options you actually need based on where and how the signage will be used. 🌟 Standardise Your Hardware: Stick to one manufacturer and model for your screens and media players when possible. This consistency simplifies maintenance, troubleshooting, and any future expansions of your signage estate. 🌟 Plan Technical Requirements: Before you start shopping, outline your technical requirements. Consider what content you will display, any necessary interactive elements, and how the signage integrates with your existing systems. 🌟 Automated Screen Management: Choose screens that can auto-turn on/off according to business hours to save energy and extend your screens' life. 🌟 Assess Installation Environments: Measure light levels in the areas where screens will be installed to choose displays with suitable brightness and visibility. 🌟 Consult with Experts: Speak with an expert with digital signage experience. They can provide valuable insights on setup and optimisation and even help you avoid common pitfalls. Ask for case studies or references to understand their capability and reliability in providing digital signage solutions. 🌟 Total Cost of Ownership (TCO): Consider the total cost of ownership, which includes the cost of the hardware, software, installation, and maintenance. By following these pointers, you can ensure that your digital signage investment is cost-effective and adds significant value to your business's marketing efforts. #SMEGuide #SMEMarketing #SMETips #BusinessGrowth

Our very own Matthew Drury was interviewed for this article about the retail market. Definitely worth a read!
The expected take up of in-store AV has been slower than we would all like. It is simply a case of we haven't found the right formula yet for AV in retail? Or do the issues run far deeper than that? many thanks to Peter Critchley from TRISON and Loek Wermenbol from First Impression audiovisual and Paul O'Reilly from VIVID Digital Retail and Florian Rotberg from invidis consulting GmbH and Matthew Drury from Saturn Visual Solutions and Graeme Little from Samsung Electronics and Mark Bracken from POLAR Integrated Solutions for offering such fantastic insight. you can read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/eieCb8xu

Saturn's Stellar Project at ODEON Luxe West End! 🎬 We're thrilled to throw it back to a fantastic project in the heart of London's West End. ODEON Cinemas Group tasked us with a challenge fit for the silver screen: to enhance their new Art-Deco-themed Luxe cinema with state-of-the-art digital signage. 🌟 The Challenge: With space at a premium in one of the city's busiest areas, ODEON wanted a striking convex, curved LED wall on the building's exterior to catch every passer-by's eye. Inside, the standard Luxe cinema setup called for multiple digital displays, all while navigating the site's restrictive access and narrow fire escape routes. 🌟 Our Innovative Solution: Engineering a bespoke framework, we designed a system that accommodated the architectural fins on the building's façade and supported the hefty weight of the LED wall. This design not only respected the site's structural integrity but also its aesthetic. The process involved meticulous planning, from securing permits for scaffolding to navigating tight clearance for installation. 🌟 Inside Out Brilliance: Beyond the external spectacle, the interior saw the strategic placement of a nine-screen video wall above a steep escalator and multiple digital screens throughout the foyer and service areas. Every piece of hardware, from 43" menu screens to dynamic advertisement displays, was precisely manoeuvred into place. This project wasn't just about installing screens; it was about transforming a space into a dynamic, engaging experience that starts before you even step inside. Today, ODEON Luxe West End stands as a beacon of modern cinema experience, thanks to tailored digital solutions that blend seamlessly with its luxurious theme. Saturn is proud to push the boundaries of digital signage solutions, proving that no vision is too big and no detail too small. Experience the future of cinema with us! #CinemaDesign #ODEON #TechInnovation #VisualExperience
