  • Publication number: 20050075929
    Abstract: A system and method for partitioning available airtime of electronic display equipment on a national and local level to encourage business establishments to utilize the electronic display equipment from a service provider. In partitioning the airtime, the service provider and business establishments that utilize the electronic display equipment of the service provider and/or media network may share in the revenue from booking and/or displaying content on the electronic displays. National level advertising enables content to be displayed at multiple, non-related business establishments (e.g., different grocery store food chains across the country). Local level advertising enables content to be displayed at individual business establishments (e.g., a single grocery store chain).
