The age of digital signs is upon us. Whether a company, organization, or small business chooses digital printing, lighted LED signs, or moving information streams, the new technology ensures that their message will reach its target audience.

There is no arguing with the fact that digital signs attract our attention; it is hard to ignore them wherever they are. Digital printing allows for easy customization with original artwork, commercial logos, or business-specific posters generated by Human Resources. With computer software, all that is needed is a good idea and it can be quickly transformed into a bright, attention-grabbing poster or notice.

Today digital signage lets you know the time and temperature (common for banks), how fast you are going as you come into town, how much the gas prices have changed since yesterday, and what’s on sale at the garden center. As you wait in line at the pharmacy, a video presentation may tell you more than you want to know about some over-the-counter or prescription drug.

There is a whole industry devoted to making it easier for businesses to attract customers and companies to communicate with their employees. There are many forums that can be used, from highway towers to plasma TVs in the employee cafeteria; there is software for any application and even management teams that will perform all the necessary tasks on a contract basis.

Using computer technology makes it very easy to customize signage, or create unique and striking digitally printed posters if that is the medium chosen. Staff no longer has to climb a ladder to change the price of gasoline outside a convenience store; the update can be done using the location’s computer or from any computer if the system is connected to the Web. The price per gallon is displayed digitally on the pump as well, letting you know how much gas you are getting, the price per gallon, and the total cost at the end. If posters are needed for point of sale display or for staff communication, they can be created on the spot.

Inside the store, point of purchase digital postings ensure that customers are aware of sale prices and limited time offers. Sometimes the display includes a video presentation, where a company spokesman extols the virtues of the product and why the customer should buy it right away. Inside a luxury hotel, if the way to an upscale event or business conference is pointed out by digital signage, the immediate impression is one of advanced technology and no cost spared.

Temporary speed checks, folding traffic signs, merge arrows, lane openings or restrictions, toll booth notices – our roads are full of LED signs and notices. Waiting in line at the pharmacy may mean being educated about the benefits of some drug. Variable messages advertise everything from hamburgers to CD rates. There are currently over 300 software programs for signs on the market, and who knows how many customized systems there are.

Digital signs are today’s way to communicate, whether it is between a business and its customers, a company and its employees, or a community center or a church and the public. The possibilities are endless.
