FOR
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
City
of Industry, California, July 10, 2007 - American Telecom Services Inc.
(AMEX: TES), a provider of converged communications solutions, today announced
that a new Pay N’ Talk DECT 6.0 telephone will be shipped to approximately 6,000
new drugstore locations for a summer promotional launch. The well-established
drugstore chain has committed to featuring American Telecom Services’ first DECT
6.0 phone in its in-store plannogram and to support multiple print
advertisements in their national circular inserts sent to millions of homes,
as
well as distributed in all stores.
The
first
phone that the chain will carry and nationally promote is the new RA22304H,
an
affordable, expandable, DECT 6.0 single handset which is interference free
and
bundled with 100 free minutes of domestic Pay N’ Talk long distance service.
This Pay N’ Talk phone is being nationally promoted with a service activation
promotion and a free Visa Gift Card partnered to the purchase of Pay N’ Talk
service. These programs are incentives to motivate consumers to activate
their
Pay N’ Talk long distance service and, thereafter, to periodically recharge
their accounts so as to permit their continued use of this service.
Bruce
Hahn, American Telecom Services’ Chief Executive Officer, commented, “The strong
sell-through of our telephones motivates retailers to expand their relationship
with American Telecom Services, by adding our new phone products bundled
with
aggressive service promotions. American Telecom Services is expanding its
distribution channels and building a strong foundation for brand recognition
and
service usage. Consumers will benefit from the new DECT 6.0 technology, and
interference-free voice quality. They will also benefit from the Pay N’ Talk
pre-paid long distance program that can reduce long distance costs by up
to
60%.”
