The restaurant industry depends on suggestive selling and upselling, and a menu board allows restaurant owners to have more influence on the way a guest engages with your brand and food in a very dynamic and significative way. Here are three reasons that tell us why menu boards are still relevant for restaurants today:

1. They allow for a connection with your guest - With a defined marketing and branding strategy, a menu board can support your efforts to create a more integrated experience. It will engage your customer, it can help educate them about menu items, drive their craving and be a key differentiator in the overall experience with the brand.

3. Ultimately, what matters is your guest - Nowadays, people care more than ever about value than anything else. They want quality in comparison to what they pay, and this quality is measure, from the guest's point of view, through the overall experience, from the moment they set foot in the door to the moment they looks at a menu board to decide what they want to the moment the sit at a table to enjoy their meal.
