'Featured Pick' News Alert!


Red Branch Technologies Inc (OTC: RBTI)
News Released Before the Open!


Commentary

Red Branch put out a promising release this morning announcing that the president of its Magellan360 subsidiary, Pam Miller  - the subsidiary that did $22 Million in ticket sales fulfillment last year - was named the 2nd vice President of the Professional Association of Travel Hosts (PATH), a major industry organization. Should make for a good soap box for the company and its products going forward.

Additionally, Red Branch let slip that it was launching Magellan360 Business Web, a industry portal that would support the company's 125 travel affiliates (and growing). Look at what the portal does and you will see the value. Should be interesting to see if this gets the stock moving again...

"This service helps us respond more quickly and effectively to changes throughout the business day and communicate as soon as we have important information."

Features of the Business Web include:

* Agent commissions and monthly sales -- Affiliates can instantly see, as frequently as they want, exactly how much they are selling and how much commission they will be receiving.
