Action Car & Truck Accessories Extends National In-store Digital Signage Network with ScreenScape
Moncton, NB and Charlottetown, PE (PRWEB) October 27, 2015 -- ScreenScape Networks Inc, announced today they have been selected by Action Car & Truck Accessories to power a nationwide in-store media channel.
“We’ve recently expanded our store network across Canada with locations east to west. All locations will feature a beautiful digital display, powered by ScreenScape, featuring the latest news and information from Action Car & Truck and its partners” says Jason Wells, Director of Marketing, Action Car & Truck Accessories.
Just as consumers are shifting from conventional cable television to Internet-streaming devices like Apple TV and Google Chromecast, which put them in control of their own home entertainment, the world of business is now turning to Internet technology to take control of screens inside their place of business. Brand marketers and retail networks use the technology to publish digital signage content on screens inside their stores. Health clinics, university campuses and other kinds of venues use it to engage and entertain their visitors. It’s part of a growing technology arena called place-based media that is rapidly turning TV screens outside the home into location-specific media channels.
Mr. Wells pointed specifically to how ScreenScape technology has simplified the process of managing a large scale digital signage network. “After gaining some experience with ScreenScape we realized the technology offered us the right combination of ease-of-use and cost-effectiveness that we needed to be successful with this program at a national level” says Wells. “Their plug and play solution helps us to get our stores started quickly, using TVs they already own, and this really helps to keep the cost and complexity of a national roll-out down to a minimum.”
ScreenScape Founder and CEO, Mark Hemphill, cited Action Car & Truck’s project as an example of a growing trend among automotive-related businesses with a storefront. “Our solution is an excellent fit for any progressive-minded automotive retailer” says Hemphill. “Why play cable television when you can easily entertain and inform your guests in a way that aligns with your own sales & marketing objectives?”
Action Car and Truck Accessories use their network for a variety of local and national marketing objectives. “It runs the gamut,” says Wells. “We use ScreenScape to provide our guests with entertaining automotive related information. We promote our loyalty programs, we give our industry and community partners an opportunity to show their products, and we try to reinforce all the other great things we do to support our customers, from social media to community events. The bottom line is we try to engage every customer and make good use of their time while they were nice enough to pay us a visit.”
