display the received video media content on the video monitor,

the received video media content being associated with the inventory within the point of purchase apparatus, the inventory comprising a plurality of products available for sale,

the received video media content further having one or more metadata tags corresponding to at least one of one or more metadata tags associated with the plurality of products and one or more metadata tags associated with a location of the point of purchase apparatus.

12. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 11 , wherein the received video media content is further associated with at least one of a seasonal time of the year at the point of purchase apparatus and data associated with historical inventory trends at the point of purchase apparatus.

13. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium comprising stored instructions, the instructions to place inventory within a point of purchase apparatus and to receive video media content associated with the inventory within the point of purchase apparatus, the instructions when executed by a processor cause the processor to:

display, on a video monitor at the point of purchase apparatus, an expected inventory placement within the point of purchase apparatus;

sense, via sensor units, inventory placement within the point of purchase apparatus;

responsive to sensing an unexpected inventory placement, display, on the video monitor, an indication of the unexpected inventory placement;

responsive to sensing the expected inventory placement or a correction of the unexpected inventory placement to the expected inventory placement:

receive video media content for display on the video monitor; and

display the received video media content on the video monitor,

the received video media content being associated with the inventory placement within the point of purchase apparatus, the inventory comprising a plurality of products available for sale,

the received video media content further having one or more metadata tags corresponding to at least one of one or more metadata tags associated with the plurality of products and one or more metadata tags associated with a location of the point of purchase apparatus.

14. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 13 , further comprising stored instructions that when executed by the processor cause the processor to indicate, via at least one of an audible device and a visual device, the unexpected inventory placement.

15. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium comprising stored instructions, the instructions when executed by a processor cause the processor to:

identify, via a computer remote from a point of purchase apparatus, a location of the point of purchase apparatus, the point of purchase apparatus including a video monitor;

identify an inventory within the point of purchase apparatus, the inventory comprising a plurality of products available for sale;

identify one or more metadata tags associated with the of the plurality of products;

identify one or more metadata tags associated with the location of the point of purchase apparatus;

automatically determine video media content to transmit to the point of purchase apparatus, the video media content having one or more metadata tags corresponding to at least one of the one or more metadata tags associated with the plurality of products and the one or more metadata tags associated with the location of the point of purchase apparatus; and

transmit the determined video media content to the point of purchase apparatus for display on the video monitor.

16. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 15 , wherein the determined video media content further corresponds with a seasonal time of the year at the point of purchase apparatus.

17. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 15 , wherein the determined video media content further corresponds with data associated with historical inventory trends at the point of purchase apparatus.

18. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 15 , further comprising stored instructions that when executed by the processor cause the processor to:

analyze the identified inventory within the point of purchase apparatus to provide an inventory restock recommendation; and

transmit the inventory restock recommendation to a retailer housing the point of purchase apparatus.

19. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 15 , further comprising stored instructions that when executed by the processor cause the processor to:
