Social Media Walls: The Must-Have Addition to Your Office

Social media displays have become the fun, new way to bring excitement and creativity into your company’s workplace. The ability to showcase posts from Twitter, Instagram and Facebook can transform a dull environment into an interactive and tech savvy experience. Social displays are a powerful tool to be placed anywhere in your company. We’ve seen our clients set up their social displays in a number of places around the office including:

• Lobbies
• Break rooms
• Conference rooms
• Around the walls of employee desk areas
• Game rooms
• Elevator banks

Enplug software allows you to show a plethora of apps including live social feeds, HD images and video, live blog feeds, weather and tons more onto any TV or display. We’ve seen workplaces become extremely creative in how they engage with others through Enplug displays. Here are some of the most popular uses for social displays in your company:

Build culture and branding

Enplug social displays are your brand and culture ambassador. You can customize the look and feel of your display to reflect your company’s personality. Use Enplug Control to set the color theme of your display. Add the Instagram Collage App in Enplug Control to share photos of team events, product milestones, and employees’ families. Let your social display be a digital photo album that celebrates the diversity and energy of your team!

Birthday notes and other congratulatory wishes

Surprise your team with custom birthday photos and messages on your display. Enplug’s web portal, Enplug Control, makes it easy for you to upload images and videos and schedule them ahead of time. Have a last minute message? Upload it onto Enplug Control and see it immediately streamed onto your display. The really cool part is that anyone on your team can also add their birthday message by Tweeting at your company’s Twitter handle or hashtag. For example, I can Tweet, “Happy #Enplug Birthday! Smile while you still have teeth, Josh!” and it will instantly appear on the social displays in our Enplug office. Your team will appreciate that you took the extra step to show you care.

Company news

Forget boring posters or paper announcements on a bulletin board. Add the RSS Feed app in Enplug Control to automatically pull news from your company’s blog by simply inputting the blog’s URL. Then, watch as your latest updates with photos appear beautifully onto your Enplug display. Connect your company’s social media handles to keep teammates in-the-know of your latest posts.

Idea wall

Dedicate one of your social displays to be an Idea Wall where anyone can share ideas or inspirations. You can set a unique hashtag for this social display. We use #EnplugIdea. Whenever someone wants to share a cool photo or product suggestion, they just mention #EnplugIdea in their Tweet or Instagram photo.

Awards and press

When a potential client is in the waiting area of the lobby, that is a golden opportunity to share videos and animations of the incredible work your company has performed. Instead of static photos, use your social display to fully illustrate the intricate details of your company’s skills. Replace the tacky wall of plaques with a video or photo slideshow of the recognition you’ve received.

Customer feedback

One of the pivotal bits of information for the success of your company comes from customer feedback. Your social display can be your realtime portal to listening to what your customers are saying about you online. Whenever someone tags your company’s business on social media, you can have their message directly shown on your social display. Seeing your customers; feedback streamed in realtime will help remind your team of always delighting customers.

Industry news

Is our company in the sports industry? Or finance? Or health? Let the social displays in your breakroom be an efficient source of real-time information as people are waiting for their coffee to finish brewing. Adding the News Feed App in Enplug Control lets you show content from any publication ranging from the Wall Street Journal to ESPN.
