Amid the rising cost of living across Canada, businesses feel the crunch in a myriad of ways, including through labour shortages. In an effort to address some of these challenges, businesses have been using technologies like self-service kiosks and other digital displays, including Samsung Canada’s popular Business TV and All-in-One Kiosk.

The Samsung Business TV allows businesses to elevate their customers’ experience by giving them the ability to personalize and develop their own customized marketing tools. This TV offers vibrant and eye-catching digital displays and features over 100 pre-loaded templates for users to create their own content. With promotions that display alongside TV programs, motion-embedded solutions, seasonal sales, and other pre-designed layouts, the Samsung Business TV allows businesses to create professional visuals, as well as upload their own creations for a customized experience.

Plus, with Tizen Zero Config remote management, businesses with multiple Business TV units in different locations can register and install new apps remotely via Tizen Business Manager, saving both time and money. The Samsung Business TV is also equipped with security capabilities, allowing businesses to lock their TV with a pin-code system to prevent unauthorized users from tampering with the screen.

As businesses head into the busy holiday season, staffing can become increasingly difficult for many small- and medium-sized businesses. The Samsung All-in-One Kiosk can help businesses who are otherwise short-staffed to serve customers.

The All-in-One Kiosk is available in two operating systems options—Tizen and Windows. It supports enhanced compatibility with third-party devices via USB ports, and also has a modular design which provides a variety of payment options including credit card, barcode, QR code and NFC, along with a built-in printer. This allows businesses to efficiently integrate their technology, without requiring additional peripherals.

When businesses are understaffed or in a busy season, it’s easy for employees to forget to promote the latest limited-time offers or new product offerings. The Kiosk can suggest add-ons or related items based on a business owner’s configurations. It can also encourage consumers to join a store loyalty program with the click of a button.

As the business landscape continues to evolve, so does the need for proficient tech solutions. Samsung is well-equipped to outfit small- and medium-sized businesses in Canada with some of the latest tools for increasing efficiencies and customizing the tools they need to meet the demands of today’s market.

If a picture paints a thousand words, Samsung Canada display technologies paint millions. With digital transformation at the forefront of business conversations in recent years, innovative display solutions have surged in quality and uptake, with more companies leveraging tech to help improve operations and performance.

Over the last two years, the use of tech to transform the customer experience has never been more important as businesses seek to offer in-store services that inform and support visitors while also working to maintain safe and socially distanced environments across Canada. In the past year, small businesses have often borne the brunt of measures to ensure social distancing, and in order to help keep from closing their doors, entrepreneurs have had to source new solutions to assist them in riding out the unpredictable economic landscape.

As the economy continues to reopen across the country and adapt to new protocols, Samsung Canada display technologies help provide excellent solutions for in-store experiences that assist with providing a socially distanced environment for customers and employees, while pushing businesses to the next level.

For businesses, there is no one-size-fits-all answer to tech needs. From retail to hospitality, every operation has a unique set of challenges and goals, with different processes for managing employees be it from home or office. Restaurants look for ways to entice customers and communicate offers while offices require new ways to hold large board meetings and manage workflow. Samsung Canada has a range of digital display products that can help all types of small businesses meet their particular needs.

The innovative display of the Samsung Business TV engages customers with eye-catching visuals. Samsung designed this TV to help restaurants, retail stores, salons, and other consumer-facing businesses with innovative and high-impact digital signage. The Business TV has more than 100 pre-loaded templates for businesses to really up the ante in their stores. Businesses can also trim traditional marketing costs with these TVs, as they allow owners to update the displays directly from their own phones, without the need to print menus or promotional materials.

In the age of “contactless” experiences, the Samsung Kiosk offers space-saving and compact design to help cater to employee and customer needs. The Kiosk, an intuitive all-in-one payment and ordering system, assists in reducing the number of one-to-one interactions with the customers, and can provide an enhanced service experience.

Long gone are the days when all office meetings were confined to conference rooms. With virtual and hybrid workforces becoming the new normal, people frequently clock in from home and participate in virtual meetings, which can all be facilitated easily with the Samsung Interactive Display Flip 3.0. This innovative display helps simplify teamwork, allowing users to share notes, sketch out and brainstorm new ideas, present plans, and collaborate with ease. The Interactive Display’s 4K UHD picture quality renders teamwork in vivid, eye-catching quality and can be synced with compatible personal devices to share real-time content.

In an ever-changing business landscape, Samsung continues to evolve its products and prioritize small businesses with adaptable technology. Its digital displays are the latest way in which the tech innovator has worked to provide enhanced experiences for not only business owners but also for their customers.

As technology continues to develop, businesses are looking for new and exciting ways to communicate with their customers. Samsung Canada has been at the forefront of developing innovative digital signage solutions to allow businesses to create real-time, up-to-date marketing content directed to consumers.

The Samsung Business TV allows businesses to elevate their customer experience, giving users the ability to personalize and develop their own innovative marketing tools.

Samsung Canada partnered with four Canadian businesses across the country to provide them with their own Business TVs, empowering them to manage and create their own content and providing a simple but powerful way to communicate with their customers.

Seamless Control

Common Crown Brewing is more than a taproom and brewery. It’s a family-run business dedicated to bringing people together with their well-crafted beers. With a constantly changing beer menu, the Calgary business was looking for a new way to keep consumers up to date with its most recent home brewing innovations.

“While our hand-drawn chalkboard looked great, it wasn’t an ideal way to update customers on our menu,” said Common Crown Brewing founder, Damon Moreau. “Our Samsung Business TV has allowed us to effectively change menu content with just the touch of a button and gives us an assortment of templates to choose from, really simplifying the process.”

With the ability to choose from over 100 free pre-loaded templates, the Business TV offers the ability to create the ideal visuals for any business, or to upload your own, allowing businesses to customize their Business TV to suit their needs and streamline the marketing process.

Vibrant Display

The Samsung Business TV also allows businesses to create a focal point in a room with vibrant, eye-catching content. The Business TV lineup features Crystal Display for optimized colour expression and High-Dynamic Range to improve brightness levels, both elements Raging Crow Distillery have used to its advantage at the artisanal Nova Scotia business.

With a new expansion just completed, Raging Crow was looking for a way to educate customers about its small batch, hand-crafted range of products while enjoying the new space.

“After doubling the size of the distillery, we wanted to encourage people to explore the property while learning more about our products,” said Jill Linquist, president at Raging Crow. “With the addition of the Samsung Business TV, we can create eye-catching content that also educates guests on our products and the process here at the distillery.”

Split-Screen Showcase

While maître fromager (a.k.a. cheese master) Afrim Pristine, co-owner of Cheese Boutique, is sourcing top-notch ingredients, he wanted to make sure that visitors to the Toronto store were able to find out more about the great selection of products on their shelves. With the Business TV’s 30 L-Bar templates, the store is able to play promotional content while TV programming remains on screen, a feature that is a great advantage to the business.

“The split-screen capabilities on the Business TV are one of our favourite features,” said Pristine. “It allows us to feature our very own Cheese Boutique TV show Cheese: A Love Story on one side, while simultaneously showcasing the great cheeses and promotions that we have on offer on the other.”

With an operating time of 16 hours a day, seven days a week, the Business TV also allows users to enjoy flexible control by setting an On and Off Timer, so employees can focus on helping guests.

Sleek, High-Quality Design

At popular from-scratch bakery SanRemo, the owners were looking not only for a marketing tool to better showcase their products and communicate with guests, but also one that fits with the bakery’s own aesthetics. The sleek design of the Business TV—available in carbon silver and a variation of sizes—made it the ideal product for the bakery, with its pastry-filled glass displays and signature blue branding.

“Quality is the most important thing to us here in SanRemo, and we wanted to showcase our high-quality products on high-quality technology,” said co-owner Robert Bozzo. “The Samsung Business TV allows our staff to highlight our products in beautiful, vibrant colour to customers.”

With businesses constantly looking for new ways to stay relevant, the Samsung Business TV provides flexible functionality suited to a wide range of retail stores and businesses. The Business TV provides the ideal solution for customer communication and the distribution of timely marketing information through vibrant visuals that boost the in-store experience for customers.
