Public Media Works, Inc. (OTCBB: PUBM), operating under the
consumer brand Spot. The Difference™, announced today that it has
reached agreements to expand into the highly attractive
metropolitan areas of Vancouver, B.C. and San Diego, CA. The
announcement marks the first wave of planned expansion after the
recently completed successful test in 25 Riverside County, CA
locations.
Launched in mid-March, the initial deployment of 25 outdoor
kiosks marked several industry firsts in the rapidly growing
entertainment kiosk space, including parity pricing for DVD and
Blu-Ray discs, and discounts for customers who rent more than one
disc at a time. The company's research of potential new markets
indicated that both Vancouver and San Diego were under-served for
automated DVD rental. They then moved quickly to meet with top
retailers to secure the best possible placements. "Using our deep
industry knowledge, our sales team has done a phenomenal job of
identifying these markets, then quickly negotiating agreements that
will allow us to deploy these locations as early as this fall,"
remarked Greg Waring, President and Chief Operating Officer of
Public Media Works. "We're very fortunate to be able to soon
partner with top tier retailers including 7-11 franchisees in the
San Diego area."
Further details on the launches will be available shortly,
including a full listing of locations, special pricing for the
Canadian market, and additional customer features designed to
further enhance the Spot competitive advantage.
More information is available at www.spotrentals.com, including
a full listing of locations and registration for weekly customer
e-mails.
