What kind of hardware do I need or can I already use a TV that I have?
Digital menu boards work special signage designed for them or even a TV that you might have which can be put to a good use here.
If you do not have a TV, you can go for a signage of your choice of any brand. We recommend you to go for a size that works well for a viewer to see everything fine. The size can start with 40 inches and up.
With Smart TVs these days, it is possible to use them as digital menu boards as well. Make sure they have an in-built media player.
You will also need a CMS software to push content on TV screens. With a software like DotSignage to manage the content on TV screens, you can easily create and update anything on the digital menu boards.
How many TVs do I need to get for my donuts shop digital menu boards?
This mostly depends on the number of items you have in your menu. The more items you have, you might need two or more screens.
You can choose to display around 25 menu items on a single screen or less if you have more images to highlight. Make sure you don’t fill up your menu board with food items and images both such that it becomes difficult for a customer to read through it.
If you are going to offer a display, make sure to have a separate slide for it such that the font of offers is large enough to be read from outside the shop. At the most, opt to display 4 offers on a single screen.
So what are the next steps?
You need a hardware and a software to get going.
