I stumbled across this job advertisement on elance.com and it appears a company is planning to development their own digital signage player/system. Based on the description below it looks ordinary – ie. there’s already quite a number of players that does exactly what they want so why spend more time developing your own?

I guess the main reason why anyone would develop their own system would be for flexability and satisfaction. By developing your own custom application you can design and build it the way you want it and eventually customise parts that need improvements. There’s also the satisfaction factor, knowing people are using your application gives you joy and satisfaction. Below is the job that was advertised on the elance website:

Network Distributed Media Player

The SIGNWAVE DIGITAL MEDIA PLAYER will be able to playback full screen 1920 x 1080 compressed video in the .MOV/M4V format. The user-friendly playlists can be managed by any web browser on the network. The playlist duration will be 24 hours. Scheduled spots will have the ability to playback at pre-defined times within the 24 hour schedule. All playlists are based on a 1 hour schedule. For instance if a specific spot needs to play back at 9:50am the base schedule can be interrupted to play the unique scheduled spot. Once the spot has played the original playlist will resume normal playback. Playlists can be auto-populated by selecting how many times per hour a spot will play. When a schedule is getting close to 1 hour the remaining time can be filled with content from a fill directory that contains appropriate fill content until the next hour starts.

There are many different ways in which to analyze the marketplace at this juncture of time, the least of which is the constant distraction we all get from the worst environmental catastrophe in our nation’s and possibly the world’s history – though I would suggest that Chernobyl was greater.

How do we react? How do we stay focused on our own lives and business? How do we not go crazy at the sight of the endless stream of oil spilling into the sea and our helpless position to do anything about it?

It is very simple really – sell.

Now how will that help you may ask? Well, my experience has always shown me that the best way to sell your customers is to engage with them, in person or on the phone – but always person to person. One of the completely unanticipated side benefits of reaching out and seeing how you can help someone with their business challenges is to help them focus on something they can get an immediate feeling of satisfaction from. You both will feel better – even if their is no immediate purchase. Just the discussion alone will lift our spirits.

So – as we move through the summer solstice and the days begin to shorten – remember – when you don’t know what you want or need to do – pick up the phone and talk to your customers – it’s amazing how much better we all will feel.

And if you want to see what we are up to – please visit our site, there are many new additions to our case studies as we spread our wings and grow.

Thanks.
