How Ecast & ShopLocal Are Bringing New Life To The Point Of Purchase
Posted on 19 October 2009 by Patrick FlanaganNo Comments
Retail Customer Experience offered some nice coverage of the Ecast partnership that was unvieled at the In-Store Marketing Expo that allows a retailer’s online weekly ad to appear within the powerful Ecast touch screen in-store device.

Ecast is ShopLocal's newest distribution partner for SmartCircular content
Ecast used the show to announce a new partnership with ShopLocal, which allows the company to bring hyper-customized local content to in-store touchscreens, as well as to mobile phones. The application allows users to browse a virtual edition of a store circular on a giant screen, which contains real-time product availability and pricing information. A few quick touches of the screen add products to a customized shopping list; a few more touches send that list to a mobile phone.
“It’s a way of bridging the gap between the online world and the offline world, and bringing all that information that’s available on the Web,” said vice president Bob Cooney.
