Roanoke Pulse · digital city network

Your business on screens across the city network.

Pulse-owned portrait screens in Roanoke restaurants people already visit. You buy network membership — fair rotation across the city — not one physical board slot.

$499 setup once · then $199/mo while a member · capped at 199 per city.

How it works

~25 restaurant screens. Hosts on top. Network ads rotate below.

• Top of the screen — the host restaurant’s specials and offers (their space stays theirs).
• Thin brand band — marks it as Roanoke Pulse.
• Bottom of the screen — network member ads rotate fairly across the city (think roughly 60% host / 10% Pulse / 30% ads).

Hosts get the screens free. No category exclusivity — same-type businesses can be on the network.

Design help, go-live on the network, fair rotation.

• Design help / template — send photos or a card; we help you look sharp. No designer required.
• Go-live on the network — your ad runs on Pulse screens in host restaurants across Roanoke.
• Directory page — light listing on Best Roanoke Businesses as SEO / proof of presence (same membership, not a second product).
• Fair rotation — every member shares screen time across the network; not “buy one wall forever.”

Same price for every advertiser. Cancel anytime; setup is once.

Why it works

Foot traffic + trust. Frequency. Not scroll-past ads.

• People already in restaurants — waiting, ordering, sitting — see you in a place they trust.
• Repeat visits build familiarity. You’re there again next week, not gone when a boost ends.
• Screens don’t get scrolled past in half a second like a feed ad.

Launch / founding partners help shape the first city network. Urgency is early inventory and launch status — not category exclusivity.
