.advancedMethod is proud to announce a new partnership with the Commercial Sales Group of Best Buy Canada Ltd. In conjunction with this partnership, Best Buy has selected .advancedMethod’s express digital signage system to offer to their customers. The express digital signage system will now be available directly through Best Buy Canada’s digital signage group, making professional looking digital signage more accessible to the public than ever.
Tony White, Sales Manager of the Commercial Sales Group, explains Best Buy’s decision by saying, “We are excited to announce our partnership with .advancedMethod. We feel express is well suited for our small to medium sized business customer base due to its ease of use and professional content.”
To kick off the joint venture, .advancedMethod, Best Buy Canada and LG recently joined forces at the Alberta Hotel and Lodging Association Convention and Trade Show in pristine Lake Louise, Alberta to display the most cutting edge technology available to the hospitality industry, including the express digital signage system. Robert Grawet, General Manager of .advancedMethod, describes the experience by saying, “.advancedMethod was very excited to partner with Best Buy Canada for the Alberta Hotel Association show at Lake Louise in April. We worked hand in hand with our partners: Best Buy and LG to show real world examples of how hotels can utilize digital signage to enhance their guest’s comfort while increasing the hotel’s sales. .advancedMethod also demonstrated our eHotel Tours (custom interactive video hotel tours).” The partners received great acclaim, winning the “Best Booth” award for their Virtual Hotel Room.
.advancedMethod’s express prides itself on being a new kind of digital signage system: one that is easy to use, easy to update and easy to buy – express includes the basic player and software necessary to create your own content right out of the box, plus industry-related templates, even “live” news feeds. express is designed to dramatically simplify the deployment of digital signage, whether that means to a single sign or a gigantic network. With the re-bundling of their IT services, .advancedMethod continues to offer customers the options they are looking for in a digital signage system – all at a competitive price point.
The .advancedMethod team members have unique backgrounds having worked with Apple, Smart Technologies, Da-Lite, EIKI International, Packard Bell Computers, and Adobe. More information can be found at www.advancedmethod.com.
