Vueinti helps make barbe-queues at garden centres

2011-06-14T05:23:00.001-07:00

Creating an immediate impact is crucial if you have seasonal products to sell, which is why Leisuregrow asked Vueinti to develop digital signage for point of sale

Given the fickle nature of our British weather, if your business is selling outdoor lifestyle products you’d better make sure you get your message across fast and effectively before the sun goes in.

That’s the perennial marketing problem faced every summer season by one of Britain’s biggest suppliers of outdoor lifestyle products, Leisuregrow.

In 2011, the company was especially keen to make a promotional splash for an exciting new product exclusive to them - Grillstream – a range of ‘better eating’ barbecues that had already impressed the judges on BBC TV’s popular business programme – Dragon’s Den.

But how best to ensure this innovative barbecuing technology stands out from the competition and gets noticed in garden centres throughout the UK?

With 150 garden centre outlets to work through, whatever marketing method was chosen had to have ‘reach’, be cost-effective and flexible enough to meet the varying needs of different types of garden centres, from small independents through to large national chains.

These constraints ruled out TV and most forms of national press advertising, which, while having the reach, would have proved prohibitively expensive. But since there was already a high collective footfall through the garden centres, Leisuregrow decided to focus their efforts on Point of Sale promotions next to their barbecues. This would highlight the benefits of the new range to shoppers, then immediately allow them get ‘hands on’ with the nearby products.

However, thinking that traditional POS materials might be too static and too ‘old fashioned’ to promote something innovative, Leisuregrow turned to Vueinti to devise a more dynamic, digital signage solution that would really grab the attention of the thousands of visitors to the centres each week.

Large LCD or plasma screens might have been one option, but were cost prohibitive. They were also potentially impractical, given the need for heavy duty staging and fixing if they weren’t to pose a health and safety hazard, particularly to families who might have small children there.

They would also be more difficult to set up and move if the retail area had to be reconfigured and the layout changed. In any event, a large screen, though eye-catching, could seem too obtrusive for the retail space of many garden centres.

To overcome such issues, Geof Jones, Vueinti’s head of Business Development and Innovation, developed a small LCD screen mounted on a bespoke, height-adjustable ‘gooseneck’ stand. And this would play a 2’ 30” promotional video fed from a SIM card slotted into the screen, rather than using a bulkier, expensive standalone media player.

With a weighted base, the stand and screen together are a robust and compact signage solution at point of sale but still easily movable as and when required.

While the voiceover from the ‘looping’ video would attract the attention of anyone nearby, to create even more pulling power, the screen was given a 50mm orange-coloured surround, that would not only catch the eye, but also present valuable promotional messages.

With this POS signage up and running, Leisuregrow now had a permanent, noticeable but still discreet ‘salesperson’ right next to their products tirelessly selling the benefits of Grillstream.

As a result, the Vueinti screens have helped Leisuregrow sell thousands and thousands of units in the first part of the 2011 barbecue season alone. And, with May 2011 being billed as National Barbecue Month they’re expecting to sell many more. All in all, another success story for digital signage.

DS PERFORMS FOR PRINCE'S CHARITY

2010-12-07T05:22:00.000-08:00

Digital signage technology company, Vueinti, was at the heart of Sleep Out 2010 (11^th November), a high profile event organised by the UK’s largest youth charity - Centrepoint - whose patron is Prince William.

Nearly five hundred people who slept rough in the cold of Old Spitalfields Market to raise funds for London’s young homeless, were kept amused and informed by Twitter ‘tweets’, videos and messages displayed on a large format screen (2.6m x 2.2m with an Sanyo Projector supplied by Vueinti.

And, to represent the ongoing plight of thousands of destitute youngsters, Vueinti not only manufactured the screens but also ‘housed’ it in giant cardboard ‘sleeping boxes’.

‘We were very pleased to help such a great charity,’ says Vueinti’s Business Development Manager Geof Jones, who took part in the event itself.

‘As fast growing company it’s testament to the effort our company is putting into becoming a first choice supplier of rear projection screen technology, not only in the UK, but also Europe and the Middle East.’

DIGITAL SIGNAGE MAKES AN EXHIBITION OF ITSELF

2010-11-26T06:40:00.000-08:00

When faced with an exhibition space, twenty feet above a busy shopping precinct, Worcester-based Artists in Minds (AIMS) turned to digital signage and technology company Vueinti, to bring the event to life.

The charity had been given an arts exhibition space in the centre of Worcester to promote World Mental Health Day. The only trouble was that it was in an empty first floor shop overlooking a busy pedestrian precinct.

‘Under normal circumstances, having an exhibition twenty feet in the air and which could only be seen through a shop window wouldn’t have made much of an impact,’ says Vueinti’s Business Development Manager, Geof Jones.

‘Not only would it have been impossible to see more than a few of the 160 works of art at any one time but, being so far up, the details would have been lost on the shoppers below.’

However, by using rear projection technology Vueinti transformed the window into a vivid and dynamic display surface for 160 works by 48 different artists.

Using a 2.2m x 2.8m Vueinti Aura HC Projection film and a Panasonic 6000ES projector the resultant high clarity images could be seen day or night during the week-long exhibition. And, once the event was over, the film was quickly and easily taken down, making it good and ready for its next tenants.

‘We’re increasingly seeing charities and event organisers turning to digital projection technology as a way to get their message across, so DOOH isn’t confined to the retail sector alone,’ says Geof Jones.

‘And obviously, in locations like this, standard LCD or plasma screens, given their smaller size and a capacity to overheat in large south facing windows, even on an autumn day, would not have worked.”

Vueinti - the future of Interactive displays and Rear Projections screens has arrived

Web 2.0Touch - the future of touchscreen

2009-03-01T14:11:00.000-08:00

Touch screen technology is the future for business and consumers in 2009

I believe that the touch screen will become mainstream and be the xmas present of choice in 2009. The problem is businesses need to adopt what I have dubbed "Web2.0Touch" and make their websites and portals touchscreen "finger" friendly - this will save £1000s

ASUS & HP have started this with PC's with touch from £400. the early adopters of this will take the lead.

We are producing a top tip guide to get your website "web2.0Touch" ready
