Results - Virtual Trade Communities

 

Background: Charles Kessler is an On-Line Marketing Specialist who had a client with a specialized service that would only be of interest to certain groups. We searched our database and found 172 contacts to which we sent out Mr. Kessler's press release.

Results (same day the release was issued):

"I was contacted by Brian Kaufman of Infocast who received our press release and will publish it in the June issue of "Competitive Utility" (he will send us a copy). They also publish "The Energy Buyer." He may want additional information about Vertical Net."
