Chucky, that's an important question. Here's may IMHO 2cents.......

Direct marketers will use whatever sales channels that work.
The buying pattern over the net or by mail of consumers can be
modeled. If a current Abacus member has sales over the net
and some by mail that opens up a whole new area for ABDR's services. How do you mail or e-mail the different type of consumer for the optimal response?

The non core areas currently being beta tested:

Retail
Business to Business
Telecommmunications
Finiancial Services
Publishing
Fund Raising

Test revenue for 97 was $400,000 in 98 $2,000,000 (est)
management expects test revenues to offset test costs in 98.

I've not listened in on the past two Q's conferences calls so this
Data may have changed.

As for a good reentry pt. I'm not one to give advice like that.
That's up to you. I will say that the retailers in general have
been soft and ABDR tends to track with them. Every time we've been below 40 it doesn't stay there long so that looks to be support.
There, now that I've said that it will do the opposite. <g>

Good Luck,

DKG
