Additional Information

Both advertising and accepting advertising is completely optional with theBulletin. Using your TV as digital signage for your business is free.
The advertising revenue generated is then shared between you and us.
Depending on how well you connect with local businesses, each screen could make anywhere from hundreds to thousands of dollars a year.
You decide who is permitted on your screens. We don't control anything.
The advertising works in 3 hour increments with prices starting as low as 10 cents. That's less than a dollar a day!
As an advertiser, you choose your price and we run an auction every 3 hours. If demand is low, the price you pay will often be much lower than the price you bid.

Use Cases

We use it at our hotel on multiple TVs by our elevator and near our restaurant. When local businesses pay to post on our TVs not only do we get paid but it strengthens our connection to the community.

Installation

Option 1: Do It Yourself

Setup your TV at a high-traffic location if you haven't done so already. Take photos of your setup.
If the TV has an internet browser go to https://thebulletin.io/screens. Or, buy an Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K (about $50) and run the Bulletin Views app.
Sign into your theBulletin account, create a screen using the photos you took in Step 1. Your screen will have a Screen ID.
Add posts of images or video to go on your screen.
Now, on the TV you have setup, enter the Screen ID and voila you have a digital billboard!

Option 2: We do it for you

We install the TV for you, setup your account and get you started on theBulletin (* available only in the Chicagoland area).
The TV, mount, electrical, drywall - we will handle everything.
Save time and money on the installation.
