IRVINE, Calif., Aug 30, 1999 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- GTC Telecom (OTCBB:GTCC ), the world's Internet telecommunications company and Webzter Corp., the renowned creative marketing think tank and online media agency, today announced that GTC Telecom has retained Webzter Corp. to rollout an affiliate search program for GTC owned ECALLINGCARDS.COM.
This announcement follows the release of ECALLINGCARDS.COM's revenue sharing affiliate program for every web site in the world.
Paul Sandhu, CEO of GTC Telecom stated, "We have retained Webzter Corp. due to their excellent capability to be creative with the allocation of marketing resources we have set aside for ECALLINGCARDS.com. In effect, our plan is for ECALLINCARDS.COM to become the calling card e-commerce site on the Internet through the most entertaining, efficient, and effective affiliate search campaign; Webzter Corp. fulfills GTC's requirement."
Dean Shafer, President and CEO of Webzter Corp. stated, "The GTC Telecom and Webzter partnership represents a real step forward in the new and invigorating online market for internet related calling cards." "GTC Telecom's senior management show an excellent business acumen by its selection of our affiliation services. We are honored with GTC's testament to the value that Webzter brings to its worldwide clients, clients that require the smartest and most invigorating affiliate search programs."
Shafer continued, "We will creatively manage ECALLINGCARDS.com's marketing campaign for affiliate sites such as Amazon.com (Nasdaq:AMZN ), OnSale.com (Nasdaq:ONSL ), Beyond.com (Nasdaq:BYND ), Best Buy Online (NYSE:BBY ), iVillage.com (Nasdaq:IVIL ), About.com (Nasdaq:BOUT ), Yahoo (Nasdaq:YHOO ), Lycos (Nasdaq:LCOS ), drkoop.com (Nasdaq:KOOP ), and China.com (Nasdaq:CHINA ) which will naturally be able to expand their product offerings through ECALLINGCARDS.com's innovative affiliation program which does not require any buying or inventory management on the part of the affiliate, yet the affiliate will have ongoing residual revenues from referred customers to ECALLINGCARDS.COM."
The latest version of ECALLINGCARDS.COM provides full service to card buyers, with many benefits not included with regular prepaid cards. Some of the new enhancements include: easy-to-remember card numbers (phone number + 4 digit PIN), on-line recharging of cards, on-line viewing of card calls and their associated cost, and reprinting of cards for multiple users or if the original card is lost. All of these benefits are available when a customer accesses their secure, personal account on the ECALLINGCARDS.COM web system.
According to Webzter Corp. V.P. of Strategic Development, Jonathan V. Galaviz, "Our experience with clients over the past year has proven the clear need for experienced marketing services due to the fact that millions of web sites have been developed at significant cost only to wither on the vine without adequate traffic through affiliation programs. GTC Telecom management knows this happens in the Internet marketplace, therefore they know it is now the time to let the world know what special service www.ECALLINGSCARDS.com provides by retaining Webzter Corp. to conduct a creative search for high quality affiliates."
