Talkline opts for Neo Advertising

Adrian J Cotterill, Editor-in-Chief

The news of big deployments across Europe keeps on coming. This wasn’t officially announced until Thursday 17th Jan 2008 but as usual we get the scoop first.

Neo Advertising has won a really great deal in Germany with Talkline. By March 2008 there will be 90 x Talkline TV concession stores in 90 Karstadt stores across Germany.

Hans Trompke, Direct Sales Manager at Talkline told us “With the launch of Talkline POS TV as the modern communication and information medium, we are offering our sales partners an ideal environment for their product placement. Even quite complex products can be presented visually, enabling immediate customer awareness right at the POS. Also, since this represents an upgrade of our POS network in all Karstadt GmbH branches across Germany, we are therefore extending our advertising media beyond the reach of print-based advertising.”
