ETOBICOKE, Ontario – October 29, 2008 – Rise Vision, Inc., a provider of a web-based content management system for the control of digital signage networks, announces that Advanced AV, a full-service provider of audiovisual solutions, now resells the Rise Display Network. Advanced AV has joined Rise’s Private Network Program, which offers significant discounts on volume purchases and enables Advanced AV to develop a custom-branded solution to its audiovisual customers.

Advanced AV helps its customers choose and install audiovisual solutions. It chose Rise Vision’s content management system, the Rise Display Network, because it offered the company the ability to brand and resell the solution as an Advanced AV product.

“We could have started from scratch and developed our own digital signage content management system, but the Rise Display Network enables us to private-label the solution and offer it as our own to our customer base,” says Kris Vollrath, Vice President and General Manager, Advanced AV Advanced Technologies Group. “In addition, the Rise Display Network is a Software-as-a-Service solution, which mean fast deployment and no upgrade hassles for our installed base.”

Rise Vision’s Private Network Program provides resellers with the opportunity to create and manage their own exclusive digital signage network – highlighting their brand, their message, and their services every time a client logs in to manage their digital signage. Resellers can build recurring revenue streams and increase margins by purchasing subscription blocks at discounted rates. In addition, they can improve customer loyalty and retention by providing their own in-house solution.

“We developed the Private Network Program specifically for companies such as Advanced AV to enable them to increase sales and customer loyalty with a private-branded digital signage solution,” says Ron Levac, President, Rise Vision, Inc. “Advanced AV has earned an excellent reputation in the audiovisual market, and we’re flattered that it chose to partner with Rise Vision and to resell the Rise Display Network.”
