MediTile Human KioskEnables businesses to use “HumanKiosk-staffing” to deliver expert personal services virtually anywhere, extending market reach by 5x, at 1/5 the cost of “human staffing”

MediaTile, the recognized leader in 3G and 4G cloud-based digital signage solutions, today announced the commercial release of its cloud-based MediaCast Video Presence system, and a new generation of HumanKiosk interactive digital signage displays from certified partners.  The “HumanKiosk Solution” revolutionizes in-field customer service for point-of-sale or point-of-service environments by combining the capabilities of interactive digital signage with on-demand, virtual experts and face-to-face interaction.  With the HumanKiosk Solution, marketers can humanize their brand interaction, improve the customer experience, and deliver their messages with absolute control and precision.  In development for more than 2 years, the HumanKiosk has undergone field tests, trials, and pilots in both the US and internationally, receiving awards and customer and partner accolades.

“MediaTile’s HumanKiosk and MediaCast solution is in exact alignment with today’s requirement for brands to have an in-market promotional system that delivers a localized and tailored experience for the consumer in order to optimize sales,” said Donovan Neale-May, Executive Director of the CMO Council. “This new level of consumer personalization combined with the brand’s ability to deliver accurate and immediate information, regardless of where the consumer is located, will certainly usher in game changing results across many retail markets.”

The HumanKiosk Solution attracts, influences, and engages consumers in dynamic new ways.  In a familiar, but oversized smartphone and tablet-like format, it attracts consumers to scheduled and dynamically generated media and engages with interactive touch-based digital promotions.   The breakthrough in personalized service is achieved through MediaCast Video Presence.  At the touch of an on-screen button, consumers can instantly enter a 2-way, high-definition, face-to-face conversation with a remote expert agent.  These trained remote experts are available on-demand, and are automatically matched with the consumer’s on-screen selections, which might include product, specific features, services, or language.
“The HumanKiosk is an innovative and ground-breaking solution whose time has now come,” said Dave Treadway, President and CEO of MarketStar.  “The HumanKiosk is an extension to our current offerings as it enables us to cover our clients’ secondary and remote markets with an equivalent level of personal service and expert knowledge with the addition of multi-language support.”

The HumanKiosk Solution delivers true business value.  By fulfilling the customer’s need for immediate information, and delivering a personal approach to service and support, in many cases brands can realize the following advantages:

•    Increase viewer relevance  by 4x to 6x over traditional display and print messaging
•    Heighten customer engagement with face-to-face conversations and dynamic media
•    Extend market reach by 4x to 6x using cloud-based, on-demand video agents
•    Realize faster time to market by 2x to 3x by eliminating manual processes
•    Improve personnel utilization by 2x to 4x though centralized staffing and virtualization
•    Deploy virtually anywhere via 4G / 4G LTE networks

“With MediaCast Video Presence and certified HumanKiosk hardware platforms, brands are now able to directly engage consumers, deliver their expert knowledge virtually anywhere, and control the brand-bias in conversations,” said Simon Wilson, CEO of MediaTile.  “Our cloud-based system also captures the consumer’s touch-based interactions – providing an invaluable source of consumer intelligence collection at a fraction of the cost as compared to traditional interview methods.  We are also seeing evidence that this solution enables brands to create an influential experience while increasing their market reach by a factor of 5 times, at 1/5 the cost of traditional on-site staffing.”

The HumanKiosk Solution will be featured in the upcoming release of the CMO Council’s research report titled “Localize to Optimize Sales Channel Effectiveness,” as an emerging technology solution.  The research report is compiled from leading brands, and will be made available to more than 40,000 senior brand managers, and global marketing executives.  Findings from the online survey of 300-plus CMO Council members and qualitative discussions with marketing executives across leading industry sectors indicate traditional print and broadcast/cable media are losing ground to more targeted, personalized, interactive and measurable forms of local engagement across diverse audiences and communities.  An overview of the CMO Council’s research initiative can be found here.
