TOPOZONE ANNOUNCES NATIONAL RESELLER PROGRAM FOR TOPOFACTORY CUSTOM MAP DOWNLOAD SERVICE


May 3, 2001 - North Chelmsford, MA - Maps a la carte, Inc. today announced the launch of a national Reseller Program for its award-winning TopoFactoryTM topographic map download service. This online service revolutionizes the process of acquiring custom seamless topographic map data by combining the interactive mapping features of TopoZone.com (www.topozone.com) and the distribution capabilities of the Web. TopoFactory provides subscribers with unlimited access to custom topographic maps of the entire United States; resellers only have to carry one topographic mapping SKU. All orders can be fulfilled over the Web, with no inventory to carry or handle.

Commenting on the new program, Ed McNierney, Maps a la carte, Inc. Founder and Chief Map Maker, said, “Our Reseller Program gives dealers the choice of how they want to interact with their customers. They can take a subscription order directly and fulfill it themselves or pass the order electronically to TopoZone.com and receive a substantial commission as an affiliate. In addition, resellers no longer have to stock multiple CD- ROM SKUs and limit their inventory to only a small part of the country. There is no digital mapping product available for resale today that is easier to manage, more profitable or more cash-flow friendly for the reseller than TopoFactory.”

The early participants in the Reseller Program are leading map resellers with a strong Web presence serving professional and commercial customers as well as consumer accounts. John Serpa, Director of Internet Services for Maps.com (www.maps.com) said, “TopoFactory is a great product and fulfillment is simple using the TopoZone affiliate program. The subscription download service takes online topographic mapping to a whole new level and provides a differentiated product for our customers”. Other dealers currently selling TopoFactory include Carolina Global Maps (www.800-248-6277.com); The Map Store of Minnesota (www.mapstoremn.com); TopoMap.to and MapGear.net (www.TopoMap.to) and Construction Safety Products (www.cspforestry.com). Please visit these resellers and look for our TopoFactory products.
