seconds at LEAST once every 5 minutes! |
| |

files of the images you'd like to use, and our expert graphic
department will lay out your screen to your liking! |
| |

| Q: |
Do you offer a discount
for multiple locations? |
| A: |

priced based on location, number of locations, number of screens, and
length of agreement. |
| |
|
| Q: |
How do I know that
customers are going to see my ads? |
| A: |
There's a method to our
madness! We place 3 interesting trivia questions within each
Slide Show, each one offering a question "tease" telling the
viewer to "Stay tuned for the answer..." Basic human nature
dictates that people HAVE to know whether they have that answer
right or not, so they will watch intently for the answer to come
up. In the meantime, they get to view some ads. All paid ads are
placed between trivia questions and their answers. PLUS...
keeping in mind that a lot of customers are regulars, we update
the Slide Show and trivia questions every week. Those customers
will continue to see your ad over and over again! |
| |
|
| Q: |
What kind of business
would benefit most from this service? |
| A: |
Any business that deals
with any member of the general public! You never know who might
be visiting that establishment, or what they do for a living. If
your business thrives on a customer base, this could work
wonders for you! |

Frequently Asked Questions (Location Owners)
| Q: |
How much is this going
to cost my business? |
| A: |
Almost nothing! We provide
the equipment at no cost to you. There are no fees to the
business at all. Since the Slide Show is DVD-based, the only
equipment involved is a DVD Player, an RF Modulator, and a Notch
Filter (if required). The DVD Player and RF Modulator are sold
state, and draw almost no power. The electricity for these two
devices is your only expense! |
| |
|
| Q: |
What are the
requirements for the establishment? |
| A: |
The only requirements are
that our Slide Show be viewable from any table location in the
establishment where TV's are normally viewed; and that you
change the DVD when a new one is received each week, tossing the
old one in the trash. |
| |
|
| Q: |
How is this system
interfaced with our TV's? |
| A: |
Most restaurants and bars
with a large number of TV's have either Cable or Satellite
service feeding through a central distribution point. We simply
"inject" the RF Modulator signal into the cable before any
distribution amplifiers. In the event your establishment uses
Cable service, we utilize a Notch Filter to block any signals in
a particular channel range (ie, 65 - 70) to prevent cable
company interference with the system. Then the RF modulator is
set to the desired cable channel and the DVD Player's video is
fed into the modulator. If the RF Modulator is set for channel
66, you simply set any TV's that you want to display the Slide
Show on channel 66. That's it! This system is designed to be
very low maintenance! |
| |
|
| Q: |
Does the system
interface with the audio system? |
| A: |
Not at all! The Slide Show
uses no audio, so there's no need for audio connection. |
| |
|
| Q: |
How many screens do we
get for promoting in-house? |
| A: |
We start at 12 screens. We
are, however, not opposed to allowing more. The only limitation
is that we keep the overall Slide Show length at 5 minutes or
less. |
| |
|
| Q: |
Can we offer
promotional trade out screens to other businesses? |
| A: |
ABSOLUTELY! We're familiar
with the term "Barter's Smarter" and believe in it
whole-heartedly! You are, therefore, entitled up to 6 additional
"barter" screens (in addition to your normal promotional
screens) to work your promotional trades. Again, keeping in mind
that the overall length, including paid ads, cannot exceed 5
minutes. |
| |
|
| Q: |
How is the Ad Sales
commissions broken down? |
| A: |
Sales Reps work hard for
their commissions, so we pay them 20% of every dollar they
generate. Here's the breakdown...
| Sales Rep |
20% |
| Your Establishment |
30% |
| Our Commission |
30% |
| Maintenance Capital |
20% |
We maintain Maintenance Capital for repairs
and new equipment purchases. Essentially, we are making the
same commission as you are.
|
| |
|
| Q: |
Can I sell screens
myself for more income? |
| A: |
YES! If you sell a screen,
you will receive the Sales Rep commission for that screen. You
would need to contact us to make that happen. |
| |
|
| Q: |
Are there any
advertising screens that no-one gets paid for? |
| A: |
No. We do, however,
promote ad sales within the Slide Show. We have a screen
designed to help boost ad sales in your location. Viewers are
directed to this web site to find out more. |
