Impart's New 'Concierge' Installed on Historic Mackinac Island

Market Wire, July, 2007

Impart Media Group, Inc. (OTCBB: IMMG), a global provider of end-to-end information networks, transactional kiosks, digital signage services, and direct-to-consumer advertising, announced today the installation of its first 'Concierge' system kiosk at the Lake View Hotel on Michigan's tourist mecca, Mackinac Island.

Mr. Chris Modd, General Manager of the Lake View Hotel, stated, "I love the 'Concierge' and would like to help Impart install units in every hotel and tourism bureau in my state and across the country. 'Concierge' immediately draws attention and communicates very effectively with my hotel guests. 'Concierge' is professionally matched to my hotel's dcor, wonderfully easy for us to use, visually stunning, and provides an interactive experience that is both intuitive and informative."

According to Luis Serra, Impart's Account Manager for 'Concierge,' "Chris challenged us for a custom unique design for both the display packaging and mount. The result is an 'Ethan Allan' style, easy hang, cherry wood enclosure -- complementary to the plush Lake View hotel environment -- with a high tech look & feel and dynamic screen messaging."

Robert Grawet, Global Director of Digital Media for Impart, added, "Our 'Concierge' introduces an entirely new concept in the world of interactive digital signage: a complete, pre-packaged solution that is easy to understand, with simple configuration options for the equipment layout and the creation of relevant and localized content, as well as a very fast turnaround for installation. This product is hot... and expect a major announcement soon on our next project deployment."

Advanced Method's Devon Imamura, representing the team lead developer and marketing partner company with Impart on 'Concierge,' stated, "The 'Concierge' is built to support the efforts of the hotel in creating a memorable guest experience. This is a win-win situation because guests can now get the information they need right at their fingertips and the hotel can generate revenue simultaneously."

'Concierge' is a new interactive touch screen kiosk product, which is tailored to a hotel's specific needs, with a variety of tools and features.

The functional benefits built within 'Concierge' include:


--  Up-to-date meeting and event schedules with directional maps.
--  Hotel amenities and restaurant menus.
--  Local guide with third party ad space.
--  Motion graphics, audio and video features.
--  Remote content management system with real-time updates.

    

The kiosk's displayed information can be mirrored on multiple screens at the hotel property or even utilized in conjunction with the hotel's guest services intranet. The hotel has complete control over all subject matter, with instant updates to the kiosk, via an online content management system. The 'Concierge' product line offers a complete turnkey solution, including all of the equipment, network backend, and 24/7 support.

The hotel only needs to provide for the AC power, broadband Internet, and wall (or floor) space accommodations.

The easy-to-install, space-saving equipment consists of mobile freestanding or wall hung enclosures, 32" or 42" vertical touch screen LCD displays, and the Impart IQ Interactive(TM) media player. Wireless options are also available to conveniently connect to the hotel's broadband Internet or LAN.
