Digital Poster Advertising - The Perfect Advertising Medium For the Small Business

We have all heard about Out Of Home (OOH) advertising and Digital Out Of Home advertising (DOOH), however there is a small but growing group of forward thinking business people who are utilising digital advertising to get their shop or store noticed.

These business people are using digital posters, these are a scaled down version of an outdoor digital sign with one exception, that they are housed indoors as they do not have the necessary protection to work efficiently outdoors.

What is a digital poster? They are an intelligent, third generation photo frame, just like a digital photo frame they have an LCD display, up to 19 inches wide by 25 inches high and they show the images in a slide show format, now here is the were a digital poster is different to a photo frame.

The digital poster comes with some software so you can drag and drop your images onto the memory card then set the rotation time, so that the images rotate in sequence, as you require. Then you have to insert the media card into the player, once secured into position, the digital poster is now ready to hang in your store window or on the wall.

Digital posters can also accept MPEG video files, so you can create a video and zone the screen and have separate images in each zone, while running video, the only thing you can not do is add RSS feeds, this is due to no Internet connection on the poster.

Now what makes them a perfect medium to get additional business, this is your opportunity to up sell your in-store merchandise and get a fast return on your investment, as you create the media content, so there are no additional costs and only a small investment in terms of money and time to get the digital sign configured and working.
