How do I post?

Follow these instructions to post your sign: 

  1. Contact Information:
    Start by filling out your name, email and phone number. Add any comments if you have them. These are only for the approvers, they will not show up on the sign. 

  2. Playtime Info:
    Start Date: Select from the calendar the date and time you want your sign to display. The system will only allow you to display your sign for a duration of two weeks. If you would like your sign up longer you will have to re-submit.

    For example, if your event is on October 24, select October 10 as your start date.

    End date: Select the time and date you would like the sign removed. We recommend scheduling the sign to end one hour before your event starts to avoid having outdated information on our campus monitors.

  3. Template Information:
    If you would like your sign to display on all campuses, select “All Campus Ad”

    If you only want one campus, select just that one, for example, “Auburn Hills Campus  Ad.”

    Enter a Headline to grab attention.

    Add a secondary headline if you have one. 

    In the details add a brief description and any relevant information including date, time and location, and web URL. Remember that the signs are on a 12-15 second rotation so keep the information brief so that people can consume the information before the screen changes.

    Enter your email address and phone number.

    Upload an image relevant to your ad. if you do not include an image, the OCC logo will be the image.

  4. Preview your sign and if all looks good, submit.
