Deerbrook Signs Integrated Information Systems To Further Develop Artup.com Network
Artup.com signs SkyMall.com Web Developers
PHOENIX, July 22 /PRNewswire/ -- Deerbrook Publishing Group (OTC Bulletin Board: DBPG - news) and its wholly owned subsidiary artup.com, today announced an agreement with Integrated Information Systems ''IIS'' to further develop artup.com and artup.com Network of web sites. ''IIS'' is expanding the Artup.com Network infrastructure to accommodate thousands of individual web sites for collectors, artists and galleries. These expanding web sites will offer an integration of community, commerce and content unknown in the online art community. Launch of the expanded site is expected in late August of 1999.
Integrated Information Systems, a privately held company based in Tempe, Arizona, and has a strong track record of developing advanced electronic commerce enabled web sites for retail and business to business applications. The most recent accomplishments included the successful development of SkyMall.Com, and 1bookstreet.com web sites. They have also received numerous awards including 1997-1998 Inc. 500 list of fastest growing privately held companies in America.
Artup.com will function as a reseller for the artists, galleries and individuals that display artwork on the site. The company will fund ongoing marketing campaigns to drive buyers to the site and in exchange will earn a transaction fee on all sales. Through the Internet's worldwide distribution capabilities, artup.com has the potential to bring together more buyers and sellers of art objects than ever before. This presents an opportunity for cross marketing programs with strategic partners, and artup.com is seeking out companies offering complementary products and services.
The parent of artup.com, Deerbrook Publishing, is a highly regarded publisher of quality limited edition prints. The company's established relationships within the art community would assist artup.com as it works to launch the site this summer and establish itself as a brand.
Deerbrook Publishing, Inc. was incorporated in Colorado in March of 1997. The company's three subsidiaries are Signature Edition, Inc., an art publishing division; Cimarron Studio, Inc., a printing division; and Deerbrook Online, the art auction and retail division formerly known as Enterarts/Interarts, Inc.
