RMG Networks, Inc. Launches ChalkboxTV

RMG Networks, Inc. announced the introduction of ChalkboxTV, a digital signage service that empowers businesses to deliver marketing messages through existing on-premise television screens. ChalkboxTV provides small- and medium-sized businesses with a powerful low-cost solution for creating and delivering relevant, localized marketing executions to activate customers in-store. ChalkboxTV is an ideal point-of-sale marketing solution that businesses can use to promote their offerings and inform customers about promotions and other offers. ChalkboxTV seamlessly integrates with any cable or satellite service so business owners can deliver venue-specific marketing messages using their existing in-store televisions. Running alongside live television programming, marketing executions appear as an L-shaped frame, and may be fully customized or easily created from a selection of templates provided with the service. Full-screen signage executions are also available within ChalkboxTV. The service consists of a media player connected to cloud-based software that enables single- or multi-unit businesses to display synchronized custom marketing messages on an existing television screen. ChalkboxTV is compatible with any cable or satellite service, so no service changes are required to deploy the system. Multiple locations can be controlled from a single interface, including custom content scheduling and playlists, so that any business can benefit from in-store digital signage. RMG plans to make ChalkboxTV available in April 2013 through a network of dealers and resellers.

RMG Networks, Inc. announced that it has signed an operating agreement to launch a new mall media digital-based network based upon assets from the former Akoo International Mall Network. This arrangement allows RMG to extend its media offering with full sight, sound and motion into another captive environment that delivers valuable audience segments. RMG will leverage its leadership position in digital place-based media sales and build a separate business unit focused on captive mall media. Adding Mall Media builds on RMG's belief that digital place-based networks with full sight, sound and motion create better opportunities to engage a captive audience. Enthusiastic about the addition of the mall space, RMG believes that the RMG Mall Media Network is truly the most engaging media asset available to advertisers in shopping malls. The RMG Mall Media Network is one of the largest US DOOH media networks with 46 million Nielsen measured viewers each month. Unlike other retail media networks, RMG Mall Media will intercept and engage shoppers while they are seated with its dynamic programming featuring full sight, sound and motion on panoramic displays and overhead sound. Differentiated from other mall media networks, RMG Mall Media is a shopper-friendly blend of content and advertising.
