Updated Digital Menu Boards Serve Up Pizza Chain’s Signage Needs
Imo’s Pizza was looking for a digital menu board solution to allow it to quickly change and manage digital menu board content in response to the FDA’s pending legislation that requires all restaurants with more than 20 locations to display calorie information on their menus. Since all the menu boards at all 100 Imo’s Pizza locations in and around the St.Louis area would need to be updated.
Digital signage integrator Ping HD’s solution consists of Engage PHD, a web based digital signage software platform and Samsung Smart Signage Platform (SSP) Displays.This clean solution simplifies everything from installation to set up. Each store has between three and four 40-inch or 48-inch displays.
Once connected to the network, each screen is configured with a unique URL that tells the Engage PHD CMS platform who it is and where it is located. After the URL has been entered into the display it is ready to receive and download content which can be managed centrally or anywhere in the world using a laptop, desktop, smartphone or tablet.
As part of the solution, Imo’s Pizza utilized Ping HD’s in house content design team who not only designed the content, but built out the dynamic menu boards within the Engage PHD platform. This meant minimal impact on the time needed for staff at Imo’s Pizza to get the stores up and running.
