Shelron Group (fka SRNG)

Another key point that the company made today answered the question why they have not put hardly any money into the marketing/promotions end of it yet. They were waiting to get the trademark/domain names into place first. The PR today stated that they will redo all of their names to activeshopper
from the previous name. That is why they waited. Also the timeing of a powerful and respected PR firm should again create some excitement, and I'm sure the company will now be more forthright with keeping the shareholders informed of company developments. All this is very positive.

About ActivShopper

ActivShopper is a free software download that scans, locates and compares prices for an item that a consumer selects at an e-commerce site. Once the item is selected, ActivShopper finds the lowest prices for that item. In other words, if it is less expensive elsewhere, ActivShopper will find it, saving the consumer money. When activated, the ActivShopper toolbar automatically displays information above the browser's main window, allowing the consumer to use the Internet without interfering. ActivShopper eliminates browsing comparative shopping sites and trying to understand complex comparative tables. No more jumping from site to site in order to find the best prices. You get the best prices on your browser instantly. In addition, ActivShopper's free text search, available directly from the toolbar or from http://search.activshopper.com (to be revised to http://search.activeshopper.com), allows the user to search for millions of products even when the automatic comparison feature is not in use.

ActivShopper is headquartered in New York City. For more information about ActiveShopper, visit www.activshopper.com (to be revised to www.activeshopper.com).
