Mr. Leach will be appearing in Booth #6020, 10:00 AM-Noon on both Tuesday, January 23 and Wednesday, January 24. He will be promoting the Company to the attendees from the entertainment and advertising industries in addition to signing limited edition promotional CDs of the Robin Leach ScreenFriend character.
"While others are looking to the future for new media solutions maximizing targeted marketing to a customer base, ScreenFriends is there today," said Mr. Leach. "I'm astonished by the innovative marketing they're already doing for such companies as Seventeen Magazine and Universal Studios."
ScreenFriends software simplifies computer and web navigation with rich media promotional solutions. Mr. Leach's personal animated character developed by ScreenFriends, opens computer programs, reads your email and horoscopes, and shops online by voice commands. In addition, ScreenFriends has customized over a dozen other characters, including Jay Ward's Rocky, Bullwinkle & Friends (from Universal Studios), Edward G. Robinson and Stan Lee Media's Evil Clone, etc.
"No matter how computer literate a person is or is not, they'll be able to install the ScreenFriends Inter(Face)(TM) software and literally talk to their computer through the personality of Robin Leach," said Gregory Santore, CEO for ScreenFriends. "They can open programs, book travel, receive special offers, surf the net, get daily travel tips and other interesting content and much, much more ... all by voice command. What was science fiction a few years ago is reality today and will be in hundreds of thousands of homes by the end of the year. We are very pleased to have Robin Leach at NATPE, and as a ScreenFriend."
ScreenFriends has an agreement with Streamedia Communications, Inc. to market its patented software for streaming, corporate, consumer and B2B voice-activated interactive applications. ScreenFriends will be exhibiting with Streamedia Communications at NATPE in Booth #6020.
