Wondersign Donates Digital Media Services to Metropolitan Ministries
Gail Chiasson, North American Editor
Wondersign recently donated digital media software services, Android-based media players and network installation to Metropolitan Ministries, Tampa’s landmark community outreach facility with an impressive and growing downtown campus.
Metropolitan Ministries is a non-profit, nondenominational, faith based organization that provides answers for poor and homeless families. Founded in 1972 by 13 downtown Tampa Churches and celebrating over 40 Years of Hope, the Ministries is becoming known beyond the Tampa Bay community as one of America’s most effective and innovative caregivers.
“Metropolitan Ministries is in the business of saving lives and helping families rebuild,” says Andy Reinhard, Wondersign CEO. “The last thing they need to spend time on is updating all of their digital messaging. We wanted their staff to have the best tools available so they can focus on what they do best.”
Now anyone in Metropolitan Ministries’ marketing team can manage the digital content with a few simple clicks from their PC and instantly make changes to every screen on campus.
“Instead of having to manually update each display screen by walking from building to building and inserting a USB flash drive, now I can just point, click and go,” says Nancy Olds, associate director of marketing, Metropolitan Ministries.
“That’s particularly important for the Ministries because they often have personalized content running on multiple displays.
“We need to be able to communicate with several different groups of people at once. Whether it’s a new group of volunteers, families needing housing, adults using our employment center or our own internal team, displaying the right information to each group saves us an enormous amount of time – not to mention paper!”
With an impressive expansion planned for this fall that will include a youth enrichment center, gymnasium and chapel, the Ministries’ digital network will be able to grow seamlessly and cost-effectively.
Wondersign, a provider of cloud-based digital media services, offers its users comprehensive and affordable digital media distribution solutions for displays and digital-out-of-home.
With easy drag & drop playlist management, automatic transcoding and a selection of hundreds of professionally designed screen templates, Wondersign management says that it is the ideal solution for small and medium-sized enterprises that are looking to manage their entire network online.
