NARS
System simply directs and controls form a central continuity studio
to one or more remote stand alone TV transmitters to change and/or modify the
content of their local broadcast material.
By doing this local broadcast is switched between the general broadcast program
or a previously stored (at the remote site) live video.
That means local ad is overlaid to the primary video content
during a typical hour of TV programming without cutting the primary video content.
National Advertisers
NARS' has a great capacity
to promote nationwide brands in different cities, even different
neighbourhoods, or defined ad zones by local advertising overlays.
A nationwide restaurant chain has an option to run targeted
ads in 20 markets wherever it has a branch.
The ads will display for instance branch addresses,
phone numbers, and other text or graphical
information for each branch in different zone.
This is going to localize each ad and create
20 separate commercials for one brand.
TV Operators
By using NARS's digital overlay system,
operators can insert local promotions within national broadcast programs and commercials.
When the target area spliced for an ad with localized or zone insertion,
the multiple spot can be sold for the same time of slot.
National TV Channels gain more advertising revenue by selling same
length of spot to more customer.
Local Advertisers
Because multiple spots can be sold for the same
30-second time slot, buying ad slots for local business with
NARS become more affordable.
It is great opportunity for any retail
or service-related small business who wants
to reach a highly targeted geography at minimal cost.
Social Responsibility
With NARS the video or text messages contain the very up-to-date information;
the message from local agencies can be easily overlaid to the primary video
content without interrupting.
This means local public can be informed about anything which could be
important for that moment only for that local area.
Such us the next harvest time or traffic congestion occurred
in a very specific area, weather warnings or even emergency blood needs
from local hospitals... etc.
