TORONTO, March 23, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- iSIGN Media Solutions Inc. (“iSIGN” or “Company”) (TSX-V: ISD) (OTC: ISDSF), a leading provider of interactive mobile proximity marketing and public security alert solutions, today announced the offer of free use of its Safety Alert Messaging (“SAM”) solution to all levels of medical, health and emergency responders across Canada for the next six months.

SAM is a technology based mobile messaging system that enables the controlled broadcast of critical information to registered recipients.  Registered recipients can be as broad as the general public, or as narrow as salaried and contract employees and can be assigned into various sub-groups, allowing for messages to be directed only to specific groups or to everyone, depending on needs.  Due to SAM’s ‘message received’ alert function, SAM messages are more obvious to recipients when they are received than texts and email.

As an example, should a hospital administrator want to message individual groups of workers, such as doctors, nurses, cleaning staff, etc., iSIGN’s backend dashboard can be used to assign all registrants into their respective groups.  Then the administrator would simply select who they wished the message to be sent to – one group, multiple groups or all groups.

As SAM supports iOS and Android in-app messaging, the SAM app is available in both the Google Play and Apple app stores.  Broadcasters log into the SAM dashboard via their web browser, create and then send messages to their registered recipients in a matter of minutes.  Sent messages are stored within the dashboard for later reference as required until the sender deletes them.

iSIGN is pleased to announce that the Abington Court Retirement Residence, located in Hamilton has accepted our offer for no charge SAM messaging.

iSIGN has been requested to contact a major health facility located in iSIGN’s home city of Richmond Hill, Ontario, who recently honoured iSIGN as one of the City’s four recipients of the 2019 Innovators of the Year.

iSIGN has made the same no charge offer to Hi-Tek Media and its sister company Omni Veil Inc., located in Las Vegas, Nevada, who has gladly accepted.  They will be reaching out to their various contacts to extend the same offer.

The goal of iSIGN and Hi-Tek Media/Omni Veil Inc. is to help our respective medical services, governments, schools and communities combat the spread of COVID-19 and aid in the return of normalcy to everyday life.

TORONTO, Feb. 27, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- iSIGN Media Solutions Inc. (“iSIGN” or “Company”) (TSX-V: ISD) (OTC: ISDSF), a leading provider of interactive mobile proximity marketing and public security alert solutions, today announced the receipt of a draw down order from Hi-Tek Media’s (“Hi-Tek”) initial 1,000 unit purchase order, for 300 units, as well as ancillary equipment for their Omni Veil Digital Platform (“Omni Veil Network”), with shipment required for the end of March/start of April 2020. 

Once these 300 units are shipped and installed, Hi-Tek’s Omni Veil Network will consist of 400  locations, both mobile and fixed, delivering commercial and security/safety messages to android and iPhone mobile phones as well as other mobile devices throughout Nevada, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.  The mobile installations include emergency vehicles operated by Quality Towing, a division of United Road Towing Inc.  Licensing revenues generated from these first 400-unit installations are forecasted to total slightly over $1.5 million Canadian, plus the revenue generated by the sale of the required ancillary hardware during the initial 24-month period.

Hi-Tek launched their Omni Veil Network in Nevada as it is their state of residence as well as in recognition that Las Vegas is a major tourist destination receiving over forty-one million visitors annually from around the world.  Their expectation is that the Nevada portion of their Omni Veil Network once complete, will have a minimum of 1,600 mobile and fixed locations.  Brick and mortar locations being targeted include hotels, casinos, medical offices, government agencies, tourist areas, sports stadiums and major retailers.  Licensing revenues forecasted from a 1,600-location network are forecasted to be approximately $6.1 million Canadian, plus the revenue generated by the sale of the required ancillary hardware during the initial 24-month period.

“iSIGN has been working extremely closely with Hi-Tek’s staff to ensure that the initial launch of the Omni Veil Network has been successful”, stated Mr. Alex Romanov, iSIGN’s President.  “The launch of the Omni Veil Network took longer than anticipated due to a number of unforeseen items, such as the use of our PODX hardware, development of apps and their acceptance into the Google and Apple stores, backend reporting improvements.  We believe we are in position to see a great growth in revenue within the coming months as the Omni Veil network is scaled upwards in Nevada and expands into additional states, as well as from the completion of other existing initiatives and other potential opportunities.”

Hi-Tek’s expansion plans are initially targeting the states of Texas, Illinois, Florida and Massachusetts, with the Omni Veil Network eventually expanding across the United States.  Hi-Tek anticipates that the Omni Veil Network within three years will be installed in an estimated 7,500 locations, both mobile and stationary.

The Omni Veil network is a unique world first advertising and safety network, fully powered by iSIGN’s patented technology utilizing iSIGN’s Smart Antenna and beacon-like PODX hardware.  It is an ‘everywhere’ network that allows for messaging to be delivered to mobile devices across major highways and streets as well as within cities and towns.  Messages will be delivered when entering the delivery range of the installed hardware and can also be delivered to individuals regardless of where they are located globally by downloading the Omni Veil app from the Google or Apple store. 

The use of iSIGN’s patented technology and equipment allows for the sending of messages to consumers by a variety of methods, including Bluetooth notifications, Wi-Fi messages, marked text alerts and app alerts.  Of additional interest, is the ability of iSIGN’s Security Alert Messaging (“SAM”) technology to deliver safety and security messaging both within cities and towns, as well as on highways and streets.

Hi-Tek expects that this extremely cost efficient and effective digital advertising platform, potentially reaching the largest audiences in public spaces and highways will generate real time metrics and data resulting in the most effective advertising ROI to brands and other enterprises.

Truly, Hi-Tek’s Omni Veil Network as powered by iSIGN, is rewriting the rules of communication and advertising, reaching people on the one screen that is constantly with people and regularly being looked at – their mobile phones.
