Video-Only Signage System
A new video-only signage system has been developed for one of the national retail banks. The system is fully audio-visual but does not play any background music. Instead, it displays a range of video presentations, starting with a staff 'pep-talk' before branch opening in the morning. The daytime slots are filled with relevant features showing product adverts, customer advice suggestions and corporate videos. After the branches close the system changes over to staff-training mode. This will enable the bank to move towards its ideal 'posterless branch' model.

National Roll-Out
Beaverbrooks The Jewellers have completed a roll-out of music4Uonline to their stores nationwide. Running on the back of their existing network, the 60+ systems were installed within a two-week period. They are proving successful for the delivery of both music and advertising to the stores.

Premier Music Contract
