Change is an essence of life. This axiom holds true for businesses as well. Today, we see conventional methods of advertising such as print or television being complimented by digital signage advertising the world over. In recent times the menu boards of a restaurant presents a case in point where-in printed menu cards are rapidly giving way to digital menu boards.
Let us first examine the offline process. This process involves three parties ie, the restaurant owner, the advertising agency , and the designer. Most often the designer is not known to the restaurant owner and hence the restaurant owner has to interface via the ad agency.
An example
Let’s suppose the restaurant owner wishes to incorporate a special item in his menu. This special item can be serverd individually as well as with combination with other items,ie, as a ‘combo’ package. This entails a complete change/modification/editing of the menu card.
Problem
The process starts with the restaurant owner providing a brief of the work to the ad agency, who in turn discusses the work details with the designer. After the work is complete, the communication chain functions in reverse, ie, the designer to the ad agency , and then the ad agency to the restaurant owner. Very often , the work takes multiple rounds of communications, and all three parties have to be in the loop to get the job completed as per the specifications and satisfaction of the restaurant owner.
This entire process is lengthy, time taking and costly from the point of view of the restaurant owner. More important, his restaurant either has to go without a menu card in the interim period, or he has to have an ad hoc menu card ready. All this may effect his sales adversely.
