Bridges.com August 1999 update Bridges.com Inc BIT Shares issued 9,466,250 1999-08-10 close $3.15 Tuesday Aug 10 1999 Mr. Norm Thomson reports Over two million students at 4,000 North American secondary schools will have access to Bridges.com's on-line career information services when they return to school this fall. New site sales of 120 in July have pushed the total number of Career Explorer (CX Online) subscribers to 4,086 -- 11.4 per cent of the North American secondary school market. The July new sales were spread across 20 states and two provinces. Education International has signed a memorandum of agreement to examine the development of various school-to-postsecondary services. Education International provides high-quality information to students, education counsellors, academics, and governments worldwide regarding secondary and postsecondary study opportunities in Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom, and other foreign markets. Its expertise in publishing and selling to the postsecondary market in North America compliments Bridges' selling expertise in North American In support of Bridges.com's plan to more aggressively pursue market share, hiring continued in July for the Bridges sales, service, and technical teams. Bolstering technical and service staff supports maintenance of the company's high rates of resubscription. Increasing the sales team from 10 to 18 sales representatives aids the rapid distribution of Bridges.com resources to new schools. At the end of July, the company employed 55 staff in Kelowna, B.C. and over 40 contracted writers and trainers across North America. In response to sales increases and internal growth, Bridges.com has purchased and implemented Pivotal Corporation's company-wide customer relationship management software. "This is a leading-edge package that will greatly enhance our ability to meet the ever increasing information requirements of our expanding business," says Norm Thompson, vice-president of finance and administration. "It will streamline and integrate every element of Bridges.com's operations: sales, subscriber administration, even our on-line publishing." The package -- Pivotal Relationship 99 -- was named the year's best overall customer management industry solution by Microsoft. (c) Copyright 1999 Canjex Publishing Ltd. canada-stockwatch.com
