While working remotely has become increasingly common in recent years, the past few weeks have seen D/OOH companies adjust to the realities of a distributed workforce at a whole new scale.

Here at Signkick, it’s not lost on us how lucky we are. As a technology company very used to this way of working, our team continues business as usual. We’re building connections and helping media owners automate and streamline their operations. Projects that, we understand, for our customers will be more important than ever in the coming months.

Our philosophy for remote work is a balance between trust in our employees, constant communication and using the right tools to ensure a frictionless technology experience.

But we know it’s easier said than done, especially when you’ve had no warning and very little time to prepare. So if you need a helping hand in making the transition to remote work, get in touch. Whether that’s assistance moving to a cloud-based way of working, a lesson on how to use Zoom, or just someone other than your cat to chat to, we’re only a phone call/email/Slack away.

In the meantime, here are a few things from around the internet to keep your team moving forward (and sane).

Stay safe and stay home.
