Whole New Concept In Used Vehicle Market Ready To Launch
Exit Only Inc. E x TO
$0.41
Exit Only entered the Canadian market in may of this year. The idea of
bringing new and used vehicles to web consumers is nothing we have not
seen before. However, allowing sellers to post there vehicles at no
charge and no hidden fees, is new. Sellers are now only charged for
actual results, namely $2 per lead for actual interested buyers.
Points To Consider:
- Initial marketing in Canada was met with overwhelming response.
- The marketing teams projected year end numbers were surpassed 4 months
early.
- Exit is now expanding the site to enter the US market.
- News in the last few weeks has released partnership agreements with
several online vehicle service sites for increased exposure.
- Exit is also providing mobile access for sellers. The system will
deliver real-time leads of buyer information directly to their mobile
phone.
Duplication of the Canadian results in the much larger US market base
will certainly make this company the next major online player. Review
any market data website for more details.

Hospitalizes Child ----- MURFREESBORO, Tenn. -- A simple scrape on the
knee turned into a superbug and has landed a 5-year-old Nashville girl
in the hospital in critical condition. Doctors said the infection that
the child caught is called Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus,
a tough name for a tough strain of drug resistant infection now known as
MRSA. "(She was) a simple child playing, having fun. She falls down and
scrapes her knee," said father Julian Clemmons. That small scrape on the
knee last Tuesday put Julianna Clemmons in the hospital by Friday.
"She's been under care and dialysis, ventilator and plasma exchange,"
said Clemmons. While it.s rare, what.s concerning to health officials is
that it's turning up more often. The Centers for Disease Control said
there were 94,000 cases of MRSA in the U.S. in 2005. "What has emerged
is an organism that lives predominantly in hospitals until now.
