The Adventures of a Traveling Salesman.

Local Vision
They are on board. We’re still working on the exact wording of our contract together, but all in all it’s going to be good. He just signed an agreement that gives him access to 500 more screens in CA and HI. Also, he’s in with over 200 street sweepers now in southern CA that he wants to integrate text to signage on the side of the sweepers. There are going to be even more things going down with Local Vision moving forward.

The Digital Signage Group
This was a great initial contact. They do work with everyone in the industry and want to be involved with and work with us on an ongoing basis. They are advisers for companies installing large networks on a number of hardware and software platforms. She knows a couple of customers who have huge networks where this would be good and work well with, both for interaction as well as just general SMS services. I’m just going to have to keep in contact with her, but she’s a great contact and loved what we have and how we’ll be able to integrate it.

3M Digital Signage

Mostly installed in retail environments where the retail store has exclusive ownership of the screens and what goes on. The meeting was not much of a help for us, but he has my business card and after we spoke he said he’d be willing to talk to people where he thought our system may work. But that was it for that meeting.

Maland Digital Signage

Installs in various and sundry venues. They want a copy of the software which I said we could do, they want it by next Monday because their venue is right next to Safeco Field where all the Mariners play their games. 5,000 to 6,000 people will walk by his shop as they go to the games. He’s going to set up dueling screens in the front of his shop before and after the game to see what kind of response it generates. Can we have this on board by Monday? I’ll of course get him to sign a non-disclosure etc., but this is going to be great. We’ll talk about this more later.

Seattle Digital Signage

They already have a network of approx. 30 screens in businesses throughout Seattle and in 80 taxis throughout the city. They will be in all 800 taxis by the end of the year. The taxis run of the internet on a cellular network (clearwire). They are pretty cool and he said what we do would be a perfect tie in to his system. We just need to get the partnership paperwork to him along with non-disclosure and everything and we can integrate with some sort of simple interactive game for the taxis. The sky is the limit here. He gave me a bunch of information. I have a few ideas after talking with him that we need to make work.

Mainstage
We’re doing a test run either this weekend or next, depending on David’s schedule. Comedy club. She wants so much stuff from us, but obviously wants to pay the least for it. She’s an event person and wants us to have a big kick off at her club….We’ll talk about her ideas later. She’s an ambitious lady. She just wants two flat screen LCDs.

Club Heaven
We’re doing a test run either this weekend or next, depending on David’s schedule. They want one projector console and one LCD tv

Single Point
SMS aggregator. Their pricing is actually really good and really makes sense if we’re moving the amount of messages we hope to be moving.

Avidex

I just picked up a card from their President. He wasn’t in and would have been able to talk with me. I’ll contact him later.

Play Network
They want me to send information. They want to get into it, but they are not sure when they want to do it. We need to send them information.

Pixel Fire Productions

These are the guys that have contacts in both NY Yankees stadium and Times Square. They want to utilize general SMS (our rates here need to be competitive or they’ll go with someone else) and they want us to work with them in creating an interactive game to pitch to advertisers in Time Square to drive traffic and build SMS. This is an awesome contact! I met with he and his design crew for about 2 hours….
