IOWA CITY, IA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 10/19/06 -- TMone, a leading telesales and database marketing firm, has announced a new service offering for direct response television (DRTV) advertising and the telecom and financial services industries. TMone will provide performance-based sales support to companies advertising their offers through DRTV. Experienced sales agents will complete orders, cross-sell and up-sell telephone responders 24/7 on a pay-per-sale basis with quality efforts/stipulations. The new service offering provides clients with financially accountable contact center support for their advertising.

"TMone's ability to convert inbound opportunities and our experience providing sales support for direct response channels has enabled us to comfortably execute DRTV campaigns on a performance basis," states TMone Director of Business Development, Billy Kramer. "Under this new service scenario, TMone shares in the risk of direct response marketing and has a vested interest in our clients' close ratios."

Television ad spending, which dipped to a growth rate of just 2.4 percent in 2005, is on the rise again in 2006, accelerating at a rate of about 5.0 percent per year. With the increase in television media spends designed to create prospect calls to specialists in contact centers, TMone's DRTV solution makes sense, especially for organizations with a focus on infomercials and direct marketing. Every call is an opportunity to connect with customers and generate revenues. As a well-known sales contact center with experience providing sales support on a performance basis, TMone is a great fit for companies requiring flexible, dedicated or blended solutions to handle inbound customer contacts. Performance-based support for these contacts is unique to the contact center industry and a testament to the conversion and take rate results TMone is capable of delivering on inbound telesales campaigns. TMone chose to distinguish itself from its competition by being the only teleservices provider on the market currently providing a 100% pure pay-per-sale pricing option for DRTV.

TMone's DRTV offering will focus on execution of the sale as well as quality and customer care components of its client's programs. TMone is targeting organizations in the telecom, financial services, infomercial, ad agency, direct marketing and DRTV industries as the first tier of benefactors from the offering.
