What We Do
 

A Community of People Working Together

Synergy Media Group is a growing community of companies working together to provide a complete solution for our clients. The benefit of this structure is that it allows the focused effort, unique knowledge and deep experience of each SMG company to work synergistically with the others for the benefit of our customers.

TouchMedia

TouchMedia is a company whose central mission is to bring the power of digital media to retailers in a comprehensive, integrated, scalable and reliable technology platform. Unlike other single-purpose systems available today, the TouchMedia Platform is designed to grow a retailer’s core business (selling physical product) while giving them profitable and affordable ways to expand into the sale of digital media.

Regardless of the particular configuration of devices and content that a retailer chooses, all TouchMedia deployments deliver superior return on investment in the following areas:
1) Higher sales of stocked, special order and digital products
2) A powerful new toolset for in-store marketing and promotions
3) More efficient use of staff and store resources
4) Higher customer service levels and an enriched shopping experience

Our customers benefit from a variety of corporate capabilities including cutting edge product development led by an innovative technology vision, strong industry relationships and a deep understanding of our market. TouchMedia is staffed with creative and capable professionals who use their experience and skills to meet the evolving needs of our customers.

The entertainment industry is clearly in the midst of a digital revolution; we believe that traditional retailers are uniquely positioned to play a leading role in the shaping of the industry. We exist to help make that vision a reality by helping retailers leverage digital media inside their stores.

In development since 2000, TouchStand realizes the vision of Michael Fitts (CEO of Synergy Media Group) to create an integrated system retailers could use to grow their sales, expand their marketing, diversify their product lines and enhance the shopping experience for their customers. Launched in 2004, the TouchStand Media Kiosk is the cornerstone of a growing family of products and services designed to support the continued success of forward-thinking retailers.
