695online.com's Unique Business Model Keeps This Dot-Com in the Black

DAYTONA BEACH, FL., Nov. 13 /PRNewswire/ -- Using a business model that couples low cost, ease of use and great value, 695online.com is turning this internet service provider (ISP) into the David that slew Goliath. In an already crowded market, that includes such heavy weights as America Online and Microsoft's MSN service, DirectPop marketing 695online.com, continues to chip away market share from the Goliaths in the industry.
Wanting to capitalize on their already phenomenal growth, CEO Robert Craddock announced the formation of a nationwide dealer network that recruits the entire existing customer base in helping people switch from their current ISP to 695online.com. Current users are offered referral incentives of cash or additional on-line time for each new user that joins the 695online.com service.

Since its inception, earlier this year, 695online has successfully used word of mouth as the mainstay of its marketing strategy, believing there is no better way to get someone to try their service than to have a trusted friend or family member recommend it.

True to their name, 695online.com charges a fee of $6.95 for nationwide access, billing their customers each quarter, for a straightforward connection to the internet that requires no special software and utilizes the default settings of the Windows Operating System.

Partnering with KMC Telecom, Bell South, Time Warner Telecom and their own management team, located in Daytona Beach, FL, 695online.com has continued to grow a national online service that shows no signs of slowing down. Craddock believes that within the year the 695online model will capture an impressive 5% of market from their competition.

Privately owned, DirectPop marketing 695online is one of the few remaining dot-com's that is growing, has no debt and is operating with a positive cash flow. 695online is a private Florida corporation and has no plans on changing anything. If success is contagious there is a major outbreak in Florida these days!
