Spectrio

Spectrio sells a suite of in-location marketing tools: digital signage screens, on-hold phone messaging, Wi-Fi marketing capture pages, and post-visit SMS and email campaigns. These products are packaged for multi-location brands — auto dealerships, dental chains, franchise restaurants — that need consistent customer communication across hundreds or thousands of sites. The platform integrates hardware, software, and content management into a single recurring subscription.

Spectrio is a private equity-backed company. Since 2019 the majority owner has been The Wicks Group of Companies, a New York-based firm that specializes in information and media businesses. Before Wicks, Spectrio was held by Craftsman Capital. The company has used PE capital to fund an aggressive roll-up strategy, completing over 40 acquisitions of smaller customer communication firms.

Spectrio's customer base concentrates in automotive dealership service lanes, retail chains, restaurant franchises, healthcare provider networks, and financial services branch locations. Any business operating a network of physical sites is a potential client. The automotive vertical has historically been among its deepest, with dedicated products like Juke Slot providing streaming music and service-lane communications for mechanics and waiting rooms.
