FUN FACT FRIDAY

led signs — Fri, 10 May 2013 03:27:55 -0600

• Did you know that LED signs do not burn out like regular, standard bulbs? Instead, LED signs burn down over time. Our signs come equipped with brightness control so one can reduce the intensity of the sign as the ambient light changes. This little tactic significantly extends the life of an LED sign! • The expected lifespan of an LED sign is 100,000 hours or more when using standard energy levels. That calculates to over 11 years! Typical incandescent bulbs last up to only 2,000 hours, or just 3 months. To learn more about LED Signage, visit our websitewww.westcoastsigns.com

DOOH campaign raises Delta Airlines brand awareness twenty eight percent

led signs — Thu, 21 Feb 2013 21:43:43 -0700

As many of you are aware, West Coast Signs is a sister-company to Digital Blue Dog. Visit Digital Blue Dog at www.digitalbluedog.com. Digital Blue Dog is an experienced player in the Digital Out of Home (DOOH) industry, specializing in the first (and only known) Oncology Network. Digital Blue Dog was inspired by the need for hyper focused digital programming and advertising directed towards Oncology doctors, healthcare workers, patients and caretakers. DOOH Networking is a powerful way to get your product and message to a targeted audience. According to 'Digital Signage Today,' Delta Airlines brand awareness raised 28% because of their DOOH campaign. Delta Airlines is serving as an example of how impactful digital out-of-home media can be when used as part of an integrated digital media campaign. Earlier in the year, the airline and its ad agency, Digitas, ran a brand-awareness campaign for Delta's international travel services using digital out-of home screens combined with traditional media. Last week, the results of the DOOH portion of the campaign were announced and were highlighted by the fact that "awareness of Delta as an international carrier increased by more than 28 percent." Edison Research surveyed consumers prior to the launch of the DOOH campaign and again during the campaign to measure how effectively the messages reached Delta's target audience and whether awareness was increased. The results indicate that Delta's goals of reaching the target audience and increasing awareness of Delta as a preferred international carrier were accomplished. Specifically: • Awareness of Delta as an international carrier increased more than 28 percent. • Among business travelers, the perception that Delta "flies to the international destinations you want to go to" increased 26 percent. • The percentage of people "very likely" to recommend Delta to friends, family or colleagues increased 61 percent. • Of those who noticed the screens, 32 percent fit Delta's income demographic. • Those who noticed the screens were frequent travelers who had an average of 5.2 business trips a year. • Overall awareness of Delta increased by 15 percent.

Sign Service regarding brightness

led signs — Tue, 14 Dec 2010 20:03:32 -0700

Have you ever noticed some signs are much brighter at night than others? Brightness could be a factor of several things: 1. Daylight Lamps vs. Cool White Lamps. More and more of today's signs are built using daylight spectrum lamps instead of cool white lamps. Daylight or DA lamps display a broader spectrum of light and therefore appear brighter at night. Cool white lamps have a tungsten tinge which makes them appear beige or light brown in comparison to daylights. Ask your sign company to change out your lamps to daylights - the cost is not significant and you'll be shocked at the difference! 2. Sign faces tend to fade or get color damaged over time. Regardless of how bright your lamps are, it's possible that your sign face has simply faded or has been damaged by the sun. This will also cause your sign to appear less bright. Have your sign service company quote new faces which will give your sign a great facelift. 3. Algae buildup. After several years signs often develop algae growth on the inside of the faces. That growth restricts the light that shines from inside the sign. Have your sign service company clean the faces on your next lamp changeout - you'll be glad you did.

Digital Billboards using LED Technology

led signs — Thu, 28 Oct 2010 14:47:32 -0600

A new technology is giving advertisers the unparalleled ability to change their ad messages quickly and efficiently. The same technology is making communities safer by helping catch fugitives and find lost children. It’s providing valuable information to keep the public informed about issues important to them. And it’s all wrapped in a familiar, comforting package: the billboard. Digital technology’s marriage to billboards is one providing countless benefits to diverse groups of consumers. There are hundreds of digital billboards in the United States, and that number is expected to grow by several hundred over the next few years. Digital billboards are updated electronically through a variety of methods. Some are networked together, most are operated remotely, and all of them can be updated quickly, sometimes with just the click of a mouse. This ability gives digital billboards flexibility and nimbleness. This nimbleness gives local businesses a unique and powerful way to reach a large number of geographically targeted consumers very quickly. In Toledo, OH, the Toledo Blade newspaper has used digital billboards to display daily headlines and even to deliver breaking news. In other cities, television stations use the technology to advertise the stories airing on the 6 pm news in the afternoon and the 11 pm news in the evening. The message is getting out. A recent study by Arbitron, the media research company, found nine out of ten people notice the advertising copy on digital billboards some or most of the time. Nearly two out of three find digital billboards to be a cool way to advertise and recall for specific brands hit 50% for some advertisers. Yet the advantages of digital billboards go far beyond selling products and services. The Arbitron study found more than 80% of people believe digital billboards provide important community information, and for good reason. In many cases, digital billboards are used as powerful aids to public safety. Throughout the country, local police departments are entering into partnerships with outdoor advertising companies to post the pictures of people wanted for arrest. Digital billboards represent a significant advance in the technology used by the outdoor advertising industry to provide substantial benefits to advertisers and communities.

Advantages of LED Digital Sign over Static Sign

led signs — Fri, 22 Oct 2010 09:45:35 -0600

Among the more obvious advantages of LED signs over static signs are the dynamic ways they allow you to communicate in ways static signs simply cannot. :: Video or Flash Messages for the ultimate in attention-grabbing power :: Dynamic Artwork and other content customized for your business or organization :: Regularly updated libraries of artwork to keep your message fresh and interesting :: Automated message rotation so you can set your messaging schedule and get back to work Of course, your LED sign can’t do all these amazing things for you unless you know how to operate it. Odds are you’re not a software engineer, so you should look for a sign with intuitive software that makes it easy for you to get your message seen. You should also strongly consider a company that offers readily accessible training and support on its sign’s software program. And if you, like other business owners, wear multiple hats and find yourself stretched for time, consider a company that can offer creative services to keep your sign displaying your specials. Simply put, look for a company that makes it easy for you to get the most out of your LED sign.

Lowest CPM or ANY Advertising Vehicle

led signs — Thu, 07 Oct 2010 15:30:30 -0600

...that's right! LED Electronic Message Signs offer the lowest cost per thousand impressions when compared to any and all types of advertising. For example, the CPM for newspaper advertising is approximately $8.40. The CPM for radio is around $14 and for local TV it's $12. Now consider the CPM for your LED Digital Message Sign... Let's say you spend $30,000 on your new LED sign. And let's say that the sign has a life expectancy of eight years. The amortized daily cost of the LED sign would be $10.27. Add $2 for electrical to run the sign and you get $12.27 per day. Let's say that your traffic count is 25,000 vehicles per day. That would give you a CPM of approximately $.50. That's right, fifty cents per 1,000 impressions - and that's counting drivers only - what about the additional impressions on passengers? Let's go a step further....an ad in the paper, on the radio or on the TV requires additional action by the potential customer - he or she needs to drive to your store. The customer you're reaching with an LED sign is already in front of your store. Therefore, your quality of CPM is significantly higher than other forms of advertising. Check out your daily traffic count at: http://www2.dot.state.fl.us/FloridaTrafficOnline/viewer.html

Signs are the Most Effective Form of Advertising

led signs — Wed, 06 Oct 2010 15:03:01 -0600

....and yet the least expensive form of advertising. That, according the the SBA, re-enforces what any successful retail business owner already knows. The SBA goes on to state that 85% of a business' clientele comes from within a 5 mile radius of their location. How is it best to reach your customer as he/she is driving by? A sign, of course! Now, imagine if you could tailor your message daily - or better yet, have multiple messages displayed throughout the day. Now you can with an LED message center from West Coast Signs. Reach your customer with a timely compelling message. For instance, you could advertise a breakfast special between the hours of 6:00 and 11:00 am, then change to advertise your lunch special from 11:00 to 2:00 pm and then promote your dinner specials from 2:00 to 8:00 pm. Replace your phonebook advertising with an LED message center and watch your ROI skyrocket.

What is Pixel Pitch?

led signs — Fri, 24 Sep 2010 08:30:11 -0600

When purchasing an LED Message Center, you're often faced with options that include different "pixel pitches." Don't get confused....pixel pitch basically describes the density of the LED pixels on the message system. The more dense, the higher the resolution and the more data you can display. When talking about pixel pitch, please remember that the lower the number, the higher the screen resolution. For instance, a 14mm screen has much more resolution than a 20mm screen. The reason for this inverse relationship is that pixel pitch is the measurement from the center of one pixel to the center of the neighboring pixel on your screen. The smaller the distance, the tighter the resolution.
