How do you attract a consumer’s eye when shelves look like...

Our options were to use traditional media...

But “old” media has disadvantages...

• Cost

• One way message

• Impersonal

• Inflexible

• Person to person

• Flexible (turnaround in minutes)

• Enormous potential reach

• Inexpensive

• Interactive

And interactivity creates...

• Loyalty

• Trust
