Commence ® Corporation introduces "Advocate Program"
(Vendor offers to pay consultants and integrators for their recommendations)

Oakhurst, NJ (March 19, 2003) -  Commence Corporation, a leading provider of software solutions for small to mid-size businesses, has taken a unique approach to lead generation. The company will begin to offer finders fees to companies recommending the Commence product to their customers.

"The small to mid-size business community is primarily served by consultants, value added resellers and system integrators," stated Larry Caretsky, President of Commence Corporation. "These are the people that are traditionally on-site recommending solutions to solve business requirements. Because they have earned the trust of their customers, they are often a very important part of the sales process. We hardly expect all of them to join our reseller program, but we can compensate them for recommending to their customers that they take a look at our solution. Getting these businesses to become aware of our family of products is our ultimate goal."

"We have found that when we get an opportunity to meet with the management teams of small to mid-size companies, we usually earn their business. Small to mid-size companies are seeking an affordable CRM solution that is easy to implement, easy to use and will provide a rapid return on their investment. Commence is that solution," says Caretsky.

The Commence approach is a unique one that will be attractive to service providers working in the small to mid-size sector. To learn more about the Commence Advocate Program, contact Dean Smollen at 732-660-1010, ext. 233.
