People ask what the difference will be between this year and the next–I think the biggest difference is that half of the companies are going to go out of business.
Interrogé par le site Compz, hardware, tips&tricks, Roman Tsunder, fondateur d´Access 360 Media, prédit la sortie de route pour nombre d´opérateurs de réseaux de digital signage publicitaire aux Etats-Unis.
There seem to be a lot of companies trying to take on this out of home market, some raising significant amounts of money. What do you think about that?
Roman Tsunder: People ask what the difference will be between this year and the next–I think the biggest difference is that half of the companies are going to go out of business. There are lots of companies who just don’t have the domain expertise. Our DNA is made up of understanding retailer pains. The others have investment dollars, without a revenue stream to support them. They’re investing all of that in capital equipment. We don’t generally subscribe to that model. We take advantage of retailers who already have their own equipment, and who fundamentally need that equipment to attract customers.
Notons au passage le modèle d´Access 360 Media : ce dernier agit en tant que producteurs de contenus, régie publicitaire multi-supports (écrans de digital signage, mobiles, internet), voir même agence média.
We enter into long term contracts to produce the programming, and we also have exclusive rights as a media company to represent the program and the network to advertisers. We also have the online advertising rights, and can sell ad space on mobile. That deal extends to the Internet, where we represent all of our retailer’s sites, and aggregate their sites. We also feel the mobile Internet is more important than basic online, and –which is a big deal–we transition our retailers into a relationship with a consumer’s handset.
Pour rappel, Access 360 Media, fondée en 2003, touche chaque mois 100 millions de jeunes adultes (12-34 ans) à travers son réseau présent dans plus de 10 000 magasins des Etats-Unis. Il est présent dans les chaînes For Your Entertainment (f.y.e.), Fred Meyer, Game Crazy, Hollywood Video, In Motion, Journeys, Movie Gallery, Rent-A-Center, Suncoast, Underground Station et Virgin MegaStores. Il compte parmi ses annonceurs Paramount Pictures, Motorola ou encore Cingular.
