ShopForT1.com
today announced the grand launch of the long anticipated Real-Time
quote engine designed to give the T1 shopper instant feedback, with
95% accurate loop pricing. Real time T1 prices have not existed
until now. Many brokers claim to deliver real time information but
the closest anyone has come to real time has been a page that you
can check back and see vendors fill in prices the following 48 hours
from when you entered your request. "The
real-time shopping model works" commented Adam Edwards, CEO of
ShopForT1.com. "The travel industry is a perfect example of how
the internet can enable everyday people to access very complicated
databases. Now, we are pleased to bring instant gratification
to those looking to price T1 lines." Apart from allowing people
to research rates, ShopForT1.com also has a number of other unique
features; most notably the ability to track leads referred by
online affiliates and direct them to one of many part-time "closer"
agents for personal care. This functionality allows ShopForT1.com
to improve the shopping experience, opens the door for online
affiliates to earn residual commissions by driving traffic, and
manages professional part-time sales agents from all over the
counrty.
"Many people have asked how exactly
we figure out T1 pricing, since it is so sensitive to the geographic
location of each customer with relation to the carriers' physical
equipment. Our GeoQuote
software is able to calculate the distance from any location in
the continental United States to any of our providers' Points
of Presence (POPs). From there, we use proprietary pricing algorithms
to convert the distance into a price" commented Patrick Oborn,
CTO of ShopForT1.com.
