The Rights to The Tile
November 14, 2014
(DAYTON, OH) The PeerNet™ Group, a strategic alliance of distributors including Shumsky, has signed a deal with Tile™ for the rights to provide this popular retail item in the promotional industry. “We are very excited to be able to offer branded Tiles to our customers as part of their marketing and promotional campaigns”, said Michael Emoff, co-owner of Shumsky Promotional. The Tile product has been very popular ever since its creators went public with their crowd-funding campaign back in 2013. Through this partnership, Shumsky has secured a limited supply of Tiles for your brand’s promotional programs that can be custom-branded with your company’s logo or marketing message. These beautifully branded Tiles are the perfect gift for clients or giveaways for trade shows and are bound to make a lasting impression.
The system consists of the actual Tile – a small square of electronics-laden plastic designed to attach to an item you wish to track – plus an iOS app capable of handling Bluetooth connections from as many as eight of these Tiles. If an item with a Tile goes missing, you can use the app to see that item’s last location or cause the Tile itself to play a melody to easily locate it. Tile has the world’s largest lost and found community that enables any user to help you locate your belongings securely and anonymously if an item goes astray. Tile is perfect for keeping track of your keys, luggage, handbag, or anything else you never want to lose. And incidentally, the Tiles are perfect little canvasses for screen printed graphics carrying your brand’s logo or message.
Tile is a wearable for anything you never want to lose, and is creating the world’s largest lost and found. Tiles are simple, sleek, and can be placed on valuable things like keys, wallets, purses, computers, and luggage to give users peace of mind knowing their items can always be found. It’s fun, fast and easy to find your Tiled items by seeing its last known location, or playing Tile’s distinctive melody. Members of the Tile community passively help one another by creating local search parties that effortlessly help find the stuff that somehow got away. Tile is based in San Mateo, CA and is on a mission to give everything in the world the ability to communicate and connect. Learn more at www.thetileapp.com.
