You can help define the atmosphere of your environment by how you communicate in that space. (Yes, you have that much power.) Think about the dreaded Monday morning feeling we all know. What if you could change the way people feel about Monday mornings just by displaying the right content when they walk in the door! The way we communicate in general, in everyday life, affects those around us. A bad mood can spread like a bad virus. If you take that analogy and apply it to how you communicate on your digital signage, you could spread good vibes as fast as warm butter on toast.  

Our world is an isolated one. Creating community is more important than ever before. We can do this with the right atmosphere through digital Signage.

All The Feels

When people enter your space, how do you want them to feel? Welcomed, informed and connected. A “feeling” of belonging, like you’re on the same page as everyone else, helps a person feel like they are part of a community. Visual communication can set the tone for how one feels. Imagine your signage is in the front of the office and displays positive visuals and messages right at the start of the day. It sets the tone for the day.

Mood

• Displaying a company kudos might trigger a response where “John” congratulates “Jill” when he passes by her in the hall.
  
• A simple “Good morning” message might help shape the rest of someone’s day
  
• Beautiful imagery inspires and beautiful imagery created by your own team or classmates encourages

Vibe

Lighten up.  Serious / important content should be reserved for serious and important alerts, infuse the rest with some light hearted humor and warmth.

Let your personality show. Nothing says stale like “generic” … allowing your brand to come through in ALL your communications is important, be sure digital signage doesn’t get left behind.

Imagery

If you’ve got nothing to say (which I find hard to believe) bring the outdoors in. Display beautiful imagery of exotic locations, if it’s winter, warm up the office with some sunny beaches. Display team members artwork. Imagery can help enhance the atmosphere of your space and gives viewers a break from constant content (which in turn makes the content more fresh when it is displayed).
