ProNetLink.com(R) August Update
NEW YORK, Aug. 23 /PRNewswire/ -- ProNetLink.com, (OTC Bulletin Board: PNLK) the first Global Trade Internetwork(TM), has received a positive reaction from the International business-to-business marketplace to its global business directory, data mining capabilities and on- line trade tools since its launch in April. ProNetLink.com's functionality continues to be enhanced and new modules are scheduled for release this fall.
Over the weekend, ProNetLink upgraded its server farm with the addition of five (5) new high-powered servers. This upgrade will allow the company to move into its next level of development and user functionality. In total, the company is maintaining close to half a terabyte of data storage. "The new functionality we are adding to the site, like live netcasting, requires more horsepower," said David Walker, Chief Operating Officer of ProNetLink.com. "With the addition of these new servers, we are ready and able to handle the anticipated growth in the company."
In June, the company began a national TV advertising campaign that targeted the business-to-business marketplace. Membership from around the world climbed sharply and strong growth continued through July. The marketing and sales programs will begin again in September and will have the additional support of new international sales offices and Chambers of Commerce partners. In addition, the company has hired a new PR firm that has been aggressively promoting ProNetLink.com to the media.
Following its successful marketing mission to Europe, ProNetLink.com expects to open new sales and development offices in key markets throughout the region.
