"Buzztime is providing a single solution combining entertainment, branding and sales messages to help restaurant and bar owners increase revenues. It is truly ground breaking for the hospitality marketplace and timely given today's economy," says CEO Dario Santana. "With this enhancement, venues have complete and immediate control of their promotional messages, which are positioned alongside our interactive and engaging games. By bundling bar and restaurant-themed advertising with our games, customers are more focused on the messages."

Buzztime's digital signage option is an environmentally sensitive, cost-saving alternative to expensive point-of-purchase materials, and reduces the clutter and waste associated with printed promotional materials. In addition, digital images drive sales for add-ons, specials and featured menu items, leading to direct increases in revenue.

A simple online interface enables restaurant operators to easily rotate and change on-screen messages as often as they like. Operators can choose between a variety of backgrounds and fonts, and can upload their own images and logos to enhance their on-site brand messaging.
