Business Case Summary

Methodology & Assumptions

Conversion lift: 3% baseline (conservative); 5% with active promotions. Source: Intel/Scala Digital Signage Retail Study.
Transaction value lift: 12% (Intel/Scala) to 22% (high-engagement setups). Varies by industry and placement strategy.
Visibility lift: 400% over static signage. Source: Nielsen In-Store Advertising Study.
Uptime assumption: 98% (commercial-grade displays). This factors in maintenance windows.
Install cost: $3,500 all-in per display (hardware, installation, first 30 days support). Actual costs vary by location complexity.
Content quality: Analysis assumes professional content updates at least weekly. Engagement drops 15-20% with static content.
Placement impact: Entrance and checkout placements drive highest conversion lift (4-5%). Floor displays and menu boards average 3%.
Business already has displays: Upgrading scenario uses 75% of full impact (discounts for cannibalization, familiarity fade).
