A SYSTEM RICH IN IDEAS AND SOLUTIONS
|
Experience and innovation
|
Mediabank Software is a result of a
close collaboration between Cinemastore Group programmers and the
users of the systems.
|
The management software is subject to continuous
improvement and thanks to its wide range of functions, it can satisfy
perfectly the many requests coming from a high number of customers
with different needs.
|
Personalised programming for each customer
|
The software of the Mediabank machines allows a
direct relationship between manager and customer.
|
The manager can plan prices, discounts and the number
of items which can be withdrawn from the dispenser according to his
agreement with each customer.
|
Targeted communication
|
The shopkeeper can display on the monitor adverts for everyone to see
|
and private messages to individuals.
|
Shop-distributor integrated management
|
With the use of the magnetic mambership card, the
customer can choose where to withdraw the products, directly from
the shop or from the dispenser.
|
Each item is put into the machine store on the basis
of the criteria set by the shopkeeper. A film can be listed by either authors,
genre, year or actors.
|
Remote check up reduces management costs
|
Mediabank system has been designed to reduce
management costs and time necessary to complete each operation. The
centre of control, Videogest, is remotly connected
to a distributor.
|
Automatic procedures allow immediate verification of
the machine functioning properly. Distributors activate an alarm call in case
of failure. Data interchanging is performed in real time.
|
Intelligent hourly tariffs
|
The software has been programmed to set up tariffs in
prefixed hours of a day. This option simplifies specific sales promotions.
|
The price list practised by the shop or the machine can be
fixed according to the needs of specific situations.
|
Direct withdrawing of the items from the distributor
|
The shopkeeper can withdraw an item from the dispenser directly
from his place at the counter by means of a tunnel placed at the back of the dispenser.
|
This option optimises the drawing and return procedure.
|
Direct updating
|
The shopkeeper can import from Mediabank data-bank directly
and whenever he wishes the updating cards of single items:
|
he can download new posters and obtain a short description of films.
|
Dynamic management of dispensing stores
|
The dimension of the dispenser store is calibrated on
the average number of drawn items
The modularity of Mediabank machines allows the shopkeeper to build his
store custom-made on the basis of logistic and commercial needs.
|
The software handles excess returns rejecting the products according to
criteria set by the shopkeeper. If there is more than one dispenser in the same shop,
each machine can act as a selector for the others and the items can be
returned to any one of the dispensers.
|
The returning box facility
|
The software provides the facility of a returning box; when
the user returns a product withdrawn
|
from the shop to the dispenser, the cost will be immediatly
deducted from the membership card.
