You can now track your employees’ ‘screen engagement’ via QR codes

Behind every piece of content you share to a screen, there’s always an outcome you want to achieve. However, it’s difficult to attribute the impact this content is making. Screen engagement is tricky to measure, especially with large or distributed workforces or screen networks.

Lets look at 3 examples from a recent workshop we co-hosted with a customer, exploring what their recent internal communications and the desired outcome they hoped the on-screen content would drive:

Example One

• Content: Executive messages or strategic priorities for the company
• Outcome: We want to raise employee awareness and to adjust behaviour

Example Two

• Content: Communicate upcoming Town Hall meetings
• Outcome: We want employees to participate and join the session

Example Three

• Content: Communicate that there is a new employee survey to complete
• Outcome: We want people to take the survey

These all sound fairly straight forward when you break them down, but the question remains - how can you tell that the displayed content is helping you achieve the desired outcomes?

This is where the QR code service and Metrics within ScreenCloud come in. You now have the ability to include QR codes in content directly, and within ScreenCloud.

Once the content is up on-screen, check out the Metrics tab to see how many people are interacting with it (measured via scans). You’ll not only be able to see the volume of scans, but which location or screens are the most highly engaged with.

Circling back to the examples above – instead of simply advertising the Town Hall, why not encourage them to RSVP via a QR code? Or, instead of just announcing a new survey, provide them with a QR code to download the survey to complete there and then. You’ll likely see more responses too.

We’d love to hear your feedback!
