Understand Creative Realities, Inc.: how it makes money

Creative Realities provides digital marketing technology for retailers, including digital merchandising and omni-channel customer engagement systems, interactive shopping assistants and kiosks, and related technologies such as mobile, social, point-of-sale, beaconing, and web-based media. It makes money by selling and delivering these solutions and associated services (including managed services) to retail and enterprise customers.

The profit model appears to be driven by deploying and managing retail engagement networks (screens and locations under control), then monetizing them through ongoing services such as managed services, rather than relying on one-time hardware sales.
