THE HOW’s

How – Hashtag Wall: Social media provides businesses with endless streams of usable content. Repurpose that social media content to be displayed on in-store Digital Signage screens and use call-to-action hashtags to encourage customers to share pictures, videos or selfies on the wall. This not only enhances the in-store experience, but also increases brand loyalty and positive word-of-mouth; turns your customers into brand ambassadors and gives them a sense of being included in something special.

How – Selfie Mirror: Interactive touch-screen selfie mirrors are the perfect accessory for retail stores, hotels, malls or events. Using the most cutting-edge technology, the Selfie Mirror seamlessly and easily guides users through the process, with on-screen animations and steps as well as voice guidance. Photos can then be shared on social media using your company hashtag or sent to the users email for future use.

How – Internal Social Media Stream: Communicating with staff is just as important as communicating with clients. Establish an engaging channel of internal corporate communication via social media, using internal Digital Signage screens to display incentivising team news or motivational success stories. Create hashtags that can be used by employees and promote team building; and watch your staff satisfaction and retention rates soar!
