2. Here are some stats you may not know….
We all spend a lot of time in meetings.
What you may not realize is that
meetings = money.
3. 11 Million Meetings
are held in the US each day on average
That adds up quickly to 55 million a week and 220 million a month.
By the end of the year, the meeting total is well over a billion.
4. $338 is the average salary cost of a meeting
Keep in mind that the average $338 salary cost does not include
high-paid CEOs and other business leaders. Those meetings can
cost upwards of $20,000 per event.
5. The average meeting length is between
31 to 60 minutes
While this likely occurs because it often takes a little while to get
everyone on the same page, it probably also derives from the fact that
30 and 60 minutes are the time blocks selectable on calendaring apps.
7. 53% of conference rooms are designed to
accommodate 7 or more people
73% of meetings involve only 2 to 4 people
8. Statistically speaking, meeting rooms are only in use
36% of the time
This means that, in an average 8-hour working day,
over five hours’ worth of workspace is going to waste.
9. Trade in old plaques and paper schedules for
digital room signs to better manage your
meeting spaces.
These small screens mounted
outside meeting rooms and other
shared spaces help your employees
and visitors find where their meeting
is, or book a room on the spot.
Here are 8 reasons to go digital…
10. Replace old, unattractive paper notices with modern interactive
screens that beautifully integrate with your décor.
1 | BE MODERN
11. Color-coded availability lights let everyone instantly see a
room’s status so they know which spaces are available.
Red = occupied, Green = available
2 | GUIDE PEOPLE
12. Easily manage your room sign schedules with the
calendar app or program you are already using.
3 | USE YOUR OWN APP
13. Bilateral booking lets you schedule space right at the sign,
which updates info in your calendaring system.
4 | AVOID DOUBLE BOOKINGS
14. A friendly touchscreen interface lets people
start, extend, end and cancel meetings at the sign.
You can also require a security PIN for on-screen changes.
5 | MANAGE MEETINGS
15. Show full screen schedules, or add digital signage
messages so people in meetings don’t miss
important announcements.
6 | SHOW MESSAGES
16. Use affordable, wireless electronic paper
room signs outside meeting rooms,
classrooms or for portable office hoteling.
7 | REPLACE PAPER
17. Pair room signs with an interactive wayfinding and
room booking kiosk for a complete room
management solution.
