Big changes are afoot for 3M’s digital signage division. A trusted source leaked information to me about LG’s latest new hire – Jeff Dowell [1] – 3M’s Global Sales Manager is moving to the much leafier and greener pastures of LG’s digital signage group [2] where he’ll be charged to further develop their digital signage business worldwide.
Jeff is a long time veteran of the industry – as you’ll see on his LinkedIn profile [1]. To coin a term first used by Brad Gleeson [3] and Jeff Porter [4] – Jeff Dowell is what we consider a Digital Signage Superfriend [5]-due to his longevity and battle scars from his tenure in the industry!
As the brand slogan goes ‘Life’s Good’ at LG and for Jeff, – as for 3M’s struggling digital signage business – I guess you could say “That’s Life”
Editor’s note – this is we believe, the position we advertised back in November 2008, see ‘WANTED: Director, Digital Signage, Lincolnshire, IL [6]‘

Rumor has it he was second choice, they offered it to Scott Kohler from Wireless Ronin but he refused when Wireless gave him 30k shares of stock to stay.
