GROTON, Mass.-Dec. 26, 2000--New England Business Service (NEBS), a leading provider of business-building management products and services for the small business sector, recently launched a new Affiliate Program powered by Be Free, Inc. (Nasdaq: BFRE) the leading provider of performance marketing technology and services. This new program provides additional revenue-enhancement opportunities for both the small business owner as well as companies marketing to this sector. "This program is a zero-cost way for small business owners to increase revenues," says Lauri Maloney, NEBS Affiliate Marketing Manager. Affiliates earn a 5% commission on the entire sale that originates from their site, no matter how large, and there are no enrollment fees. When they join, they link to nebs.com by choosing from a variety of industry-appropriate buttons or banners to place on their site. Visitors click on the link and go directly to nebs.com online store. NEBS internal systems keep track of every dollar spent during that visit. NEBS processes the order, ships the products, handles the billing and takes care of customer service questions. Additionally, this new Affiliate Program is a site enhancement tool in today's crowded web environment. "Companies selling both products and services on their websites are continually looking to find additional ways to drive visitors to their site. NEBS is a quality resource for small businesses, and a link to nebs.com is another compelling reason for customers to keep coming back to their site," says Maloney.
