Wal-Mart recently added digital signage to
select end caps within their stores. I had a friend remark that after a recent
visit to Wal-Mart she was impressed and please to see how viscerally attractive
the store was. Digital Visceral
attractiveness is now a contemporary standard in retailing.
British Petroleum is installing Digital
Signage at the Pump and in the store at over 1,000 units. Digital signage is not an operational efficiency it
is now a required step in the consumer’s path of contemporary progress. The
consumer is not static they are dynamic all retailers must keep pace with the
customer.
Supermarkets, Convenience stores and
Restaurants all must avoid unwittingly practicing Brand Protectionism and
saying no to items that consumer comes to expect. Visceral attractiveness is now as important
as cleanliness and service. The Grocerant sector is leveraging digital
informational tools to build a strong consumer base.
I was reminded as well that the NY Hilton hotel
has had CNN in its elevator now for over 12 years. Visceral information is not new nor is it
going away. Don’t let your brand unwittingly practice “Brand Protectionism”.”
