ImageXpres Announces LitePix Digital Signage Deal
ImageXpres Corporation (PINKSHEETS: IMJX) announced today that the Company has signed a joint venture agreement with The Franchise Edge (TFE), a Tampa, Florida-based franchise development and marketing company, to distribute, market, and support ImageXpres' LitePix Digital Signage Systems in the Orlando and South Florida retail and hospitality market. The business agreement provides for the formation of an advertising media marketing company, 1080i Media, LLC that will spearhead the marketing and sales efforts in the Orlando test market. Initial sales and market trials are to commence March 1, 2007, and will expand throughout the year in the high-density tourist and entertainment geographic region. Further news on the 1080i Media, LLC enterprise is expected over the coming weeks.
"We are excited about our business venture with The Franchise Edge," states ImageXpres President John S. Zankowski. "The prospects for our LitePix Digital ADTV signage systems are tremendous, especially when coupled with the experience in advertising media, and franchise business modeling that TFE brings to the business venture. ImageXpres will supply the Digital Display hardware, remote management software/ technology infrastructure, and creative design content creation. TFE will provide expertise in advertising media placement, and verification of the franchise business model in conjunction with TFE's marketing and sales activities in the target markets.
Paul Samson, Founder of The Franchise Edge, and Carmen Guilfoyle, President, are the chief architects of the digital advertising business model, and have long-time experience in related digital business concepts. "We are very pleased to have initiated this business venture with ImageXpres Corporation," says Samson, "and we expect 1080i Media to be a huge success as we move forward with initial placements and sales." 1080i Media is targeting high profile locations, such as restaurants, fitness centers, nail salons, medical professional offices, and other high-volume traffic areas with wait times of 20 minutes or more averaging a minimum viewer base per month. Guilfoyle adds, "The niche in this business is to create a captive, target audience. Entertain them while they wait with HDTV broadcast while offering near-by products and services that will help solve their problems and desires. Whether it is health insurance, automobiles, carpet cleaners or hair dressers the advertisers are at the viewer disposal. It's a perfect match for businesses and customers to find each other." Sales are expected to expand rapidly and franchise opportunities will be available within the year. To learn more visit www.1080iMedia.com.
