About TSIG.com.
TeleServices Internet Group Inc., also known as TSIG.com, is a Florida-based marketing and e-commerce company that focuses on the acquisition and retention of customers through marketing and promotional programs utilizing the most efficient technologies, including the Internet. TSIG.com has successfully undertaken a strategy to acquire the technology and management expertise to incorporate the three critical components of consumer marketing:
1. Identify potential consumers
2. Gather relevant information about those consumers
3. Create affinity-based loyalty programs that fit those consumer profiles
The use of the Internet as a marketing tool creates the opportunity to acquire, retain and market to our consumers within the framework of a model that is more cost-effective than traditional marketing. TSIG.com has implemented this unique model and has put in place the components to realize the market's full potential. This model was designed to utilize the existing expertise of the TSIG.com subsidiaries and new management team to accomplish the goals of high customer satisfaction, retention and incremental sales. The major operational entities of the company now include:
TSIG.com - An internet-based marketing and promotion company that leverages corporate and charitable partnerships.
GeneralSearch.com - A search engine with over 100 million links and over 1,300 internet-based affiliates. This search engine is family friendly and eliminates virtually all adult-oriented content.
The Affinity Group - A loyalty-based marketing company that specializes in database mining, product development and sales utilizing today's most efficient e-commerce technologies.
The recent acquisition of The Affinity Group has given TSIG.com the unique advantage of an end-to-end consumer marketing group. The consolidation of GeneralSearch.com and The Affinity Group enables the Company to control the entire sales process, from acquisition to fulfillment. TSIG.com now owns the transaction, the consumer, products and the individualized content necessary to retain that consumer, thus driving incremental sales.
