A Sign of the Times

Digital signs sure have come a long way. Some may say they're a sign of the times, so to speak! Marketers have gotten really creative with the ways they engage their audiences, and companies all over the world have begun to adopt digital signs and LED wall signs as a means of creating memorable, interactive experiences for their audiences.

When you're shopping for a new outdoor LED sign, you may have exactly what you want in mind. Your zoning district may have different ideas, however. There are often a number of restrictions organizations have to adhere to before they can post signage.

Many schools have changeable letter signs; after all, they offer a great way to advertise events and messages to the community at a fairly low cost. Because the design and setup costs are typically affordable - and the final product is visually appealing - school leaders often opt for this form of signage. Unfortunately, vandals see this form of signage as an open invitation to do unsavory things.

When most people think of LED signs, they imagine big, bold digital billboards. Sure, major marquees are awesome for advertising, since they grab the attention of thousands of passersby who are able to see the messaging from any angle at any time of day. With that said, not every project requires a gigantic sign.

To many administrators, school is about one thing: academics. While education is certainly an important aspect of the entire scholastic experience, there's a lot more that rounds out students' and staff's voyages. School pride is an intangible—yet essential—ingredient to any school's success.

2018's Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) is here, and we're excited to meet some of the great church leaders of today! On June 12th and 13th, the city of Dallas is expecting the largest gathering of SBC attendees in nearly a decade. Between 8,000 and 9,000 messengers are expected to attend, as well as 5,000 to 6,000 invited guests, exhibitors, and other attendees, bringing the anticipated count to over 14,000 people.

A school is a microcosm of life. Each hall and classroom is filled with its own bustling world of activity. Students learn and grow; teachers creatively find new ways to engage with their students as times (and people) change.

Once upon a time, a school only needed a single, static sign. After all, it seems like simpler times lent themselves to fewer newsworthy notes around campuses. In today's world, however, it's all about engagement and keeping the community apprised of all the awesome things academic institutions are up to.

When it comes to making money, many schools and churches face uphill challenges. You're governed by a certain system that doesn't give you much leeway in terms of financial gain. Fortunately, there's one item that's ready-made to boost your community engagement while simultaneously making your organization money.
