Have A Jolly Good (Digital) Christmas!


by Scala Team

It’s a wonderful time of year. Christmas cheer is in the air, holiday catchups are planned, and everybody is looking forward to a day or two (at least) of relaxation, food and merriment. Amidst the festivities, it is still important to make sure your retail digital signage is hitting the spot and creating a positive impact. Here are three ways to make sure your retail store delivers a jolly good digital Christmas experience!
Christmas Digital Signage

1. Make your content merry and bright

It’s Christmas! Create ambience in your retail store with attractive festive retail digital signage. Plan a break in your normal digital signage content to spread some festive cheer by running a Christmas poll or competition, or design eye-catching festive content to wish your customers a Merry Christmas and promote special Christmas deals and collections. Our video below shows how easy it is with Scala Designer.

2. Plan ahead

Big Boxing Day or New Year sale coming up? An important new year announcement? Use a digital signage content management system like Scala Content Manager to plan and schedule your digital signage content to automatically publish and update over the Christmas holiday period. Because no one wants to be mid-way through an enormous serve of Christmas pudding only to suddenly remember they forgot to hit ‘Publish’ on the Boxing Day Sale promotion!

3. Keep the momentum going beyond Christmas

We’ve already seen the retail rush over Thanksgiving in the US and Europe, and Dussehra and Diwali in India and other parts of Asia. Christmas will be no different. In Australia, for example, shoppers are expected to spend over $1,000 on Christmas gift shopping in 2023. But the spending is not expected to stop at Christmas. Over two-thirds of Australian shoppers are expected to take advantage of major sales events including Boxing Day sales, and 80% of people are planning to do at least some of their festive shopping in-store.

Across Asia, Sensormatic predicts that consumers in Australia and New Zealand will complete most of their shopping throughout December, whereas those in mainland China, Hong Kong, and Singapore are expected to start their in-store shopping a little later, on or after Christmas and over New Year. This means retailers should maximise their use of retail digital signage to keep shoppers engaged across the entire holiday period by running more promotions, upselling and cross-selling, and driving incidental purchases through strategic content.
