Just think about the potential as digital money becomes more entrenched and as regulations for conducting international e-trade emerge. The Bill Gates dream: support full transactions, for a nominal fee (1-2% of the amount). Absorb the cost of building the infrastructure up front, and then sit back and let the money flow through the system. Great margins once the initial investment is made. Also, delivering business to financial institutions, insurers, transportation agencies -- all for a cut of the action. ProNetLink has the potential to become a referral machine, and the profit margins on referrals are top of the line. It's a great way to make money. I just signed up for my PNLK membership and did some quick touring of the site; these are very natural outgrowths of the product that is already in place. All in all, I think the site looks great, despite some glitches. One of the glitches was the feedback form, so I could not report the problems! Can hardly blame them: after all the work they've done, I wouldn't want to hear about any problems on Saturday morning, either! Looks like you all had fun last night, even with the slight delay. Dixie, I hope you saw the site this morning before traveling: pretty stressful to take off without knowing if the product was there as promised. And Ztect, you totally cracked me up with that line where you wondered if they were monitoring the board at the party last night. Glenn's revenge: and he would have deserved it! <g> With the product out there, we should start getting some feelers from a wider array of serious investors. You know, the kind who would never look at a BB stock with no product, no revenues, no business history, yada, yada, yada. We'll undoubtedly see more of the day traders, too. May or may not have our big pop Monday, but I expect we'll see broad trending upward week-over-week and month-over-month for some time now. Feels good to be open for business!
