Sycuan and JCM Global created a huge wow factor for arriving guests with a 32-by-16 direct-view LED video wall behind the registration counter. Players and coaches regularly come out for scheduled events, including autograph signings and watch parties.

Though utilized in many ways, its main purpose is to highlight and support Sycuan’s long-running relationship with the MLB’s San Diego Padres.

In gaming areas, Sycuan added more than 50 LCD screens, ranging in size from 43-in. Sycuan worked with the Samsung resellers and integrators at IES Communications and JCM Global to add hundreds of screens - in a variety of sizes and configurations - around the revitalized and expanded property, creating a visually vibrant and hyper-relevant promotional messaging channel. “For us, this was about providing a new experience to our guests.” “We wanted to make an experience that was a little bit different from what you would get if you went to another casino hotel in southern California,” explains Pat Tinklenberg, the VP of information technology at Sycuan. The expansion, completed in March 2019, added 500,000 square feet of space, including new gaming areas and a 12-story luxury hotel tower with more than 300 guest rooms. A major resort expansion, budgeted at more than $225 million, presented an opportunity to rethink and broaden the network. Instead of planning weeks out, Sycuan’s promotions team needed a way to guide guests to events that were underway or forthcoming, create instant excitement about winners, and stream live video from performances and sporting events happening around the property.Ī digital signage network was already in place on the property, but was underutilized. Reducing those long timelines and excessive production costs was important, but the broader goal for Sycuan was to find a way to put resort promotions in the moment for its guests.

All said, a set of newly printed pieces could cost thousands of dollars. Between planning, production, printing, shipping and installation, it could easily take weeks to update promotional posters around the property. Relevance and immediacy are important, and San Diego’s Sycuan Casino Resort was struggling to keep pace with all the promotions, events and activities around its property when using conventional backlit, printed vinyl posters. Casino resorts trade heavily on excitement - creating multisensory sight and sound experiences that encourage guests to stay, play and enjoy themselves.
