Methods and systems consistent with the present invention provide a cross
channel fulfillment system that enables consumers to purchase and receive
items using different transmission mediums. The fulfillment system is a
centralized distribution system that maintains information relating to
consumers and has access to multiple transmission mediums. Specifically,
the fulfillment system contains a database of consumer contact
information relating to each transmission medium. The fulfillment system
uses a remote device to provide information to consumers. The remote
device transmits and receives broadcast messages including information
relating to purchasable items. The fulfillment system may deliver a
purchased item to the consumer using a medium different from that used to
purchase the item.
