This study examined 513 companies all over the world (including the US, Germany, Italy and the UK to name a few) and revealed that poor communication channels rob SMBs of 40% of their productive time. I'm not suggesting that digital signage is the magical elixir to solve all of the problems, but now is the time to examine your existing channels you have in place. Maybe digital signage fits, maybe it doesn't.
