A marketing system includes a plurality of automated transaction machines
(74, 76, 78, 80, 82, 84, 86). The automated transaction machines operate
to carry out financial transactions with associated host computers (90,
94, 100, 104). Marketing presentations are stored on and output from the
transaction machines responsive to messages exchanged with a market
message server (110) which is connected to the automated transaction
machines through a network (108). The connection to the automated
transaction machines which provides delivery of the market presentation
materials and which causes the output of presentations, is generally
independent of the messages associated with authorizing financial
transactions. Some described embodiments of the invention enable
presenting marketing campaigns to users of the transaction machines. The
marketing campaigns may include sequences of presentations that are
output on a targeted basis to particular users. Other marketing campaigns
may be selectively distributed to groups of machines in the system and
output without regard to the identity of the user of the machine. The
system also enables analysis of marketing activity and communications
with other systems for exporting and importing data and marketing
presentations.
