Light Boxes and shop front marketing

Lightboxes come in a wide range of shapes and styles all with different features in order to ensure the perfect display for anyone’s requirements.

One of the technical definitions of a “lightbox” is “a box of fluorescent tubes balanced for white light and covered with translucent glass or plastic.” And they have been traditionally used for photography purposes as well as treating seasonal affective disorder. But with many technological and creative innovations, the spectrum of uses is broadening. Because of the nature of the boxes, images become easier to see and words easier to read. Naturally, this has evolved into showcasing sales signs, business names and posters of the top-selling items on store fronts and attracting the attention of customers. Lightboxes are put to use for promotions, marketing and advertising purposes within shopping malls, retail stores, movie theaters, video stores, showrooms, trade shows and other areas where gaining people’s attention is important.

So what types of light boxes are available to shop and store owners? Most lightboxes are lit by either LED or fluorescent tube lights.

Just like LED televisions, LED light boxes are usually the slimmest. With the most current LED technology innovations, these boxes produce a crisp, even light and use much less energy than traditional fluorescent tube light boxes. Fluorescent tube lightboxes offer a superior level of even illumination. The backlit standard light boxes are usually lit with cool white fluorescent tubes. Lockable lightboxes are terrific for use outdoors and in high traffic areas. They are usually backlit and fitted with high frequency electronic ballasts. Illuminated menu cases are light boxes lighted from the sides and in front of the menu making them easier to read for curious customers. Curved front lightboxes are ideal for use indoors and are highly superior when it comes to light dispersal, which will create the maximum visual impact. The light tower light box is an impressive model that stands on the floor and offers double sided lighted areas for display items. Some light boxes have features such as a hinged front opening door complete with a lock and key, too. Another element of a light box is its lens, which is typically made of acrylic or Plexiglas due to its scratch and shatter-resistant nature.

Whether a shop owner wants to advertise a new sale, a new menu item or just the business name in an eye catching, yet “won’t hurt the eyes” way – then a lightbox is the perfect solution. With so many varieties and customizable options store front advertising and marketing is going to be transformed from flat name plates and posters to attention-getting, modern graphics

Electronic Marketing On The Shop Floor

Electronic Marketing On The Shop Floor
Digital signage has many varied uses on the shop floors of industrial facilities and other places of work. Its major use it to supply data to operatives, like manufacturing quotas, fresh working practices, health and safety issues, touring dignitaries and important reminders linked with the day to day organization of the small business. Any number of LCD advertising boards can be positioned on the factory floor, depending on the size of area and number of staff.

The media is quick to refresh and update as it can be also remotely accessed via the Internet or in house intranet, or by uploading the data onto a memory card and plugging it into the screen access point. This can be all set in advance and set to run at precise times, pertinent to the shift workers in the factory.

Much exploration has shown it can have a positive effect on production as little time is lost through workers group meetings and is visually aesthetically pleasing. It can be run with or without audio, where appropriate and much more notice is taken of the moving pictures than that of a static poster, or hastily written notice. Another advantage is more than one piece of information can be shown uninterruptedly therefore several can run concurrently.

This has shown to have a constructive stimulus on employees, as data is displayed instantly and is rerun for reminders. It can also be utilized for social events, the self-service restaurant menu for the week, fund raising and moral boosting. Data can of course be streamed to the office workers, were applicable.

As Digital Marketing is a right and proper advertising medium for both out of home and indoor use, extremes of temperatures need to be catered for.

Putting an digital poster in a ski resort is an excellent initiative, as it can offer so much data and advertising for local organizations, yet with the harsh winter temperatures of -30 degrees Fahrenheit, the hardware within the poster frame require protection. The damp from the snow, turns to ice and can destroy a hard drive therefore a thermostatically controlled temperature device needs to be fitted.

Similarly, in the waterless desserts of Arizona, electronic signage and touch screen menu boards have their place too, in establishments like dining places and even a cattle diary, where milk quotas and production is monitored. This without doubt needs a thermostatically controlled cooling unit to handle the soaring temperatures, without damaging the delicate systems.

Once wired to the power supply, these cooling or heating devices can be left to run, with minimal monitoring, as the thermostat will trip on or off as essential, so does not have to be controlled personally. As the temperatures change in the night, as the example of the dessert, where it can be extremely hot during the day, falling to sub zero temperatures at night, this would need a dual controlled thermostat. The power supply is available in each countries own unique wattage, for instance, America is 120 Volts, most of Europe runs on 230 Volts (formerly 220 V) and United Kingdom used 230 Volts (formerly 240 V). The dealer of the digital posters will be attentive of this and will notify earlier to buying.
