ExploreBoards are up
and running in a handful of
locations in the western United
States, with plans to expand greatly
in the coming months.
Digital kiosks are currently active
in Vancouver, Seattle, San Francisco,
Los Angeles, San Diego and Dallas.
Two locations are pending in San An-
tonio, and Portland will follow after-
ward. Certified has also garnered
interest from a few museums in the
Houston area.
And it's not just hotels hosting the
ExploreBoards.
OUE Skyspace L.A., Ripley's Be-
lieve It or Not! in Dallas, the Cross
Border Xpress in San Diego County,
the Bicycle Hotel & Casino in Los An-
geles and a soon-to-be-activated loca-
tion at the California Welcome Center
on Pier 39 in San Francisco are some
of the more non-traditional locations.
The Ripley's location in particular is a
high-traffic spot, with reports show-
ing more than 700 touches from
tourists in a day at one point.
"We service hotels, we have some
attractions, we have one casino, and
then the Welcome Center," said Jon
Trumbull, Certified's Director of Cus-
tom Publishing. "We hope to see
more in the near future."
The
ExploreBoards launched in the
spring of 2016, and Trumbull said he
estimates about 20 will be active by
the end of the year.
One of the major benefits of the
ExploreBoards is the ability to update
content daily. With the holidays upon
us, Trumbull said distribution clients
have been encouraged to update their
content with tree lightings, special
menus, and other seasonal events.
"That's one of the benefits
customers most enjoy about the
ExploreBoards – that the content can
be updated daily if somebody so
chooses," he said.
Trumbull said recently he was at
the Cross Border Xpress, a pedestrian
bridge from Otay Mesa near San
Diego to Tijuana, and saw a large
group of people deplane. He said he
witnessed children run up and imme-
diately start using an
ExploreBoards
there, pointing out local attractions
such as Legoland to their parents.
"Kids understand it right away,"
he said. "I did notice while I was
there that any kid who came through
walked over to it and immediately
started experimenting with it."
