Today, the use of these bright LED boards is no longer limited to being just your ordinary well-lit signage in restaurants, bars and various shops as your makeshift menu and announcement board. This luminous piece of marketing peripheral is an all-around board that can be employed for other functions. And here are some of them.

Use it as a scoreboard for darts, pool and other bar/indoor sports

Keeping score has never been this brilliant. Literally! Throw away your old scoreboard for darts, billiards and other indoor sports, and use this board instead so that players can clearly see the scores better. And in a chalk-free style! This is definitely ideal for sports bar, pubs and saloons.

Let the “Board” Games Begin

We’re talking about bar games, so why not make the most out of it, right? This erasable and reusable LED board can serve as a perfect drawing panel when playing team games such as Pictionary, Mad Libs, Taboo, Boggle, Text Twist and even Spelling Bee to name a few during your drinking spree with friends and colleagues. Talk about “Board” games, huh?

Attention!!! Notice and Announcement Board

Because bulletin boards were so last decade ago! Making use of your writable LED board sign as your announcement board will make whiteboards look like a spot of clutter on your wall. You can never go wrong with a polite and clever thought rendered onto a colorful LED board as your medium. Definitely “CANNOT BE UNSEEN!”

To-Do List: Make a To-Do List

Because having a business means you need to work on a lot of things. And being the forgetful you, you have to organize your schedule and plot a to-do list. And this works not just for you. You can also advise or remind your workers to do necessary tasks like weekly maintenance, grocery chores and the likes.

Your Virtual Motivational Speaker

Need to pep talk your people? Must come up with a way to boost their morale? Problem is motivational speaking is not your strong point. So what you need to do is to “borrow” and share some inspirational quotes, funny & punny lines or song lyrics and scribble it onto your LED board. Make this a weekly thing to somehow motivate them or make them smile to say the least the moment they read it. Just to be on the safe side, don’t post Nietzsche or any nihilistic quotes… Trust us on this one.

Employee of the Month Spot

And finally, what better way to recognize your staff’s effort and superb work ethics than to post a photo and declare him/her your employee of the month with all the lights and its glory. This way, it’s easier and more fun to give a nod to your ace worker, as his fellow co-workers can also post messages on the board.
