Digital signage examples for every industry.

Smart-Signage adapts to your business. Here are concrete scenarios, industry by industry.

One tool, very different uses

Digital signage is not rolled out the same way in a bakery, a pharmacy or a production workshop. The principle stays the same: remotely managed screens whose content changes with the time, the day or the news. What changes from one business to another is where the screen hangs, how long it stays on, who looks at it and how much time that audience has to read it.

A street-facing shop window calls for a high-brightness screen and messages that can be read in three seconds. A waiting room offers several minutes of attention, but requires calm, carefully controlled content. A company lobby mixes internal news, room schedules and key figures. Each page below starts from these constraints: what is worth showing, the hardware to plan for and how to schedule the content.

For the basics (components, choosing a screen, setup steps), read our digital signage guide; for the budget, screen and installation included, the digital signage cost guide.

The essentials, industry by industry

  • Bakery & pastry shop: pastries in the morning, meal deals at lunchtime, cakes in the afternoon: every moment of the day has its offer.
