During the past six months, the Company has opened three additional sales offices in the US and six in Europe. These offices are strategically located to continue providing coverage for all major business centers on both continents. In addition, the launch of ON's ''Value Added Reseller Program'' has increased the Company's channel exposure. Resellers such as Klein Technologies, Inc. have expanded ON Command CCM into new market verticals, specifically the military and federal government. These efforts, coupled with the development of ''out of box'' solutions, like Volume II of our Year 2000 Jumpstart CD, allow an increasing base of customers to realize the benefits of ON Command CCM. |
