I took a look at ‘LinkLocal‘ the other day as Lord Sugar Tweeted a free advertising slot on the network. I have to say that I had already unwittingly seen them around locally without realising who was behind them, and as an advertising medium in areas where a lot of people stand or sit waiting to be seen or served, I have to say that it’s a ‘great’ platform.

If you’re anything like me, you hate queus or waiting rooms because you always find it embarrassing if there’s nowhere to fix your gaze. But with the ‘AmScreen‘ everybody seems to use it for exactly THAT purpose and so makes for one of the most innovative advertising mediums out there.

Local businesses go to the website, they fill in their business details, choose a relative template from the many available, select the location/s where they would like the ad to appear, pay the fee at the checkout and it’s done! Their ad is now being rotated infront of those very people who are using the AmScreen as the focus for their gaze.

Whoever came up with the idea for Lord Sugar must be revelling in glory right now in Sugar Towers

If you find yourself standing or sitting infront of an AmScreen at your petrol station, doctors surgery, local shop, health centre, gym, rail-station, airport, bus terminal etc, etc, etc, then keep a look-out for the FRED67.com ad and let me know here! if you’ve seen it, and ‘where’ you saw it. The Prize? Would a good 20% discount on membership to ‘The FRED67 B2B Referral Club’ Be OK?

I look forward to hearing from you soon, so go check em out
