ST. PETERSBURG, Fla., Feb 2, 2000 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- TeleServices Internet
Group Inc. (OTCBB: TSIG), known as TSIG.com, today announced that results from
its Coca-Cola Super Bowl MusicCard promotion, which runs through the end of
February 2000, have been outstanding.
Hundreds of thousands of Coca-Cola Super Bowl MusicCards were distributed
throughout the Atlanta area over the past several weeks, with thousands more
during the Super Bowl on Sunday night. This excitement was highlighted by local
television coverage on their nightly news broadcast. Commented Joseph K. Keegan,
President & Chief Operating Officer of TSIG.com, "We are delighted with the
tremendous response to the Coca-Cola Super Bowl MusicCard promotion. Traffic to
our Internet website has increased over 200% since the promotion began and we
are looking forward to other successful programs with our friends at Coca-Cola."
Other news from TSIG.com is our national sponsorship participation in the
`Street & Smith's All-Millennium Pro Football Team' promotion. TSIG.com and
other sponsors joined with some of the NFL's greatest players of the Millennium
at a press conference, held in Atlanta during Super Bowl week, to make the
national announcement. On hand to emcee the press conference was Greg Buttle,
former All-Pro linebacker of the NY Jets and now President of Unique Sports &
Legend Marketing. "We are all excited to have the fans voting on the best pro
players of the Millennium, `Decade by Decade,' via the Internet. Because of the
Internet application for all the voters, we anticipate
well over 1,000,000 voter registrations and each
voter will receive the ALL-MILLENNIUM PRO FOOTBALL TEAM MusicCard,"
said Greg. "We are especially pleased to have some of football's
greatest players participate. Among those Millennium players representing the
60's, 70's, 80's, and 90's were Paul Hornung, Ted Hendricks, Jack Youngblood, Ed
`Too Tall' Jones, Tony Dorsett, Roger Craig, and Freeman Mc Neil. These guys are
what it's all about and they created `All-Star Momentum' for this spectacular
event," an enthusiastic Mr. Buttle commented.
"In addition," stated TSIG.com's Quarterback & Chief Executive Officer Robert
Gordon, "TSIG.com announced its new partnership with UCPA and WeMedia.com. We
are also equally proud of the `All- Star' Corporate Sponsors associated with the
All-Millennium Pro Football Team promotion. Together with UCPA, Unique Sports,
One-On-One Sports Radio, Foot Locker, and our friends at the Tropicana Hotel in
Atlantic City, we will continue to `Tackle & Block' to ensure this is a
successful program.
"This All-Star event will drive customers to our website, and our unique
Internet model will be enhanced through distribution from our Corporate Sponsor
partnerships. Foot Locker, with 2,700 worldwide locations, will be promoting the
All-Millennium Pro Football Team MusicCard throughout retail locations
nationwide," stated Mr. Gordon. "The promotion will be held through July, and
the final score of the `Greatest Players of the Millennium' will be recognized
at the Tropicana Hotel in Atlantic City."
