iSign Media Corp, wholly owned subsidiary of Corbal Capital Corp., announces the closing of an agreement with HearAtLast
Corbal Capital Corp ("Corbal") (TSX-V: ISD) announced today that it has reached an agreement with HearAtLast Holdings, Inc., to carry out a pilot project in 3 or 4 of their clinics to gauge consumer reactions to the messages being broadcast. Upon the successful completion of this initial installation, our interactive messaging solution would be installed into the balance of their 28 Hearing Healthcare clinics co-located in select Wal-Mart stores throughout Canada. Commencement of this project is expected to start in November 2009.
"We are confident that both of our companies will benefit greatly from this project. Through the units that have been installed and operating in various stores in Singapore for the past year and in China for the past five months, we have proven that we can efficiently and effectively deliver advertising messages and content to individuals who have activated the Bluetooth feature on their cell phones.
We are excited about this Canadian opportunity and look forward to its successful implementation," stated Alex Romanov, Corbal and iSign Media Corp's President and Chief Executive Officer. "We are especially happy with this agreement as it will place our units into Wal-Mart, which has the largest volume of consumer traffic in the world."
"This unique technology will enable our Hearing Health Service Representatives' to target potential clients in a multitude of different venues as the unit is portable. Our goal is to evaluate various forms of direct marketing to different demographic groups throughout our clinic network. With over 65% of Canadians using cell phones, this is a wonderful way in which to penetrate an expanding and youthful market place with direct to smart phone pinging through the iSign device," states Matthew Sacco, Chief Executive Offer of HearAtLast Holdings, Inc.
