Why Every Business Needs a Live Digital Display Board
Share
Whiteboards get erased. Emails get ignored. Slack messages get buried.
But your team still needs to stay on the same page. Whether you're tracking goals, sharing updates, or just trying to make sure everyone knows what’s going on — clear communication matters.
And in 2025, the best way to communicate visibly and in real time is with a digital display board.
The Modern Workplace Has a Communication Problem
Every business juggles a mix of tools — email, group chats, printed memos, handwritten whiteboards — and still ends up with people asking, “Wait, was I supposed to do that?”
That’s not a people problem. That’s a visibility problem.
If it’s important, it should be on the wall — not buried in someone’s inbox or erased off a smudged board.
What Is a Digital Display Board?
A digital display board is like a living bulletin board for your business.
It shows real-time information — from inventory counts to sales goals to announcements — on a screen where your whole team can see it.
With tools like boardMatic, you can control exactly what appears, how often it updates, and how it looks — all from a simple Google Sheet or dashboard.
No subscriptions. No tech headaches. Just plug it in and go.
5 Reasons You Need One
1. Keep your team aligned.
Display live updates, project goals, sales numbers, or tasks right in the workspace.
2. Improve accountability.
When goals are visible, they get met. When everyone sees the same information, the excuses disappear.
3. Reduce noise.
You don’t have to repeat yourself when the answers are right there on the wall.
4. Build momentum.
Recognize progress, share wins, and keep people motivated — visually and publicly.
5. Make setup dead simple.
boardMatic runs on a Raspberry Pi and any TV — no apps, no logins, no IT department required.
Who It's For
Whether you're running a warehouse, car dealership, retail store, or office team, a digital display board replaces chaos with clarity.
You can show:
-
Job queues and schedules
-
Sales goals and leaderboards
-
Daily checklists or safety info
-
Live metrics and dashboards
The possibilities are endless — and setup takes less than 20 minutes.
Why boardMatic
We built boardMatic for people who are too busy to deal with “digital transformation.” You just plug it in, load your Google Sheet or link, and let it work. It cycles through your content like a digital slideshow — no subscriptions, no bloat, no nonsense. If you can use a spreadsheet, you can run boardMatic.
