How To: Digitial Signage Promotions

# How do I nominate something to be placed on the signs?

If you have an item you would like to nominate to be promoted across all signs on campus, or on a specific sign, please e-mail it to web@wayne.edu with the following information:

  • Title for the promotion (Action word in title)
  • Short Description (6 words or less)
  • Date and Time of event if it applies
  • Start and End date range you wish to run the promo (2 week maximum range)
  • URL or location where a viewer can get addition information (HTML only, no PDF links)
  • Contact person's name, email and phone number (if the viewer has questions)
  • A 610 x 337 image (width x height)

We will review your request and get back to you within 48 hours.

# Is there a cost to place something on a sign?

There is no cost to physically place something on a sign but if a graphic needs to be designed specifically for the promotion there is a $75/hour charge.

# How long can an item run on a sign?

An item can run on the digital signs for a two-week period. This amount of time is sufficient to give the item enough visual attention and to allow for other campus items to get air time in the rotation.

# What is not allowed on the digital signs?

Currently these items are not allowed to be placed on the signs:

  • Advertisements for off campus items

# Who do I contact if there is something wrong with a Digital Sign?
