Business Owner @ Hometown Indoor Billboard Network

About

ACCOMPLISHED MEDIA EXECUTIVE WITH PROVEN TRACK RECORD: Following a successful 25 year career in the sports broadcasting industry, which included stops at CBS, FSN, and Comcast/NBCU, I ventured out on my own to launch Hometown Indoor Billboard Network. We offer a unique advertising platform for small businesses by creating hyper-local zones of "place-based" video screens located in popular, high-traffic venues, including restaurants, bars, gyms and recreational facilities. We combine basic (but effective) display/billboard ads with the latest in digital content delivery technology, providing small business owners a cost-effective option to compete on a local level against regional/national brands, despite the disparity in ad budgets and scale. I am responsible for all functional areas, including revenue generation, business development and operations. Please contact me directly at larry@hometownIBN.com
