PassAlong Networks Launches Upgraded Digital Music Incentive Marketing Platform

MP3 Formatting and Mac Compatibility Strengthen Promotional Offerings


Franklin, Tenn. — August 21, 2007 Media distribution developer PassAlong Networks™ today announced the launch of the latest version of its StoreBlocks™ Incentive Marketing Platform, upgrading a service that has powered programs for one of the industry's leading promotions marketing companies — MediaTree — a company that has designed campaigns for companies such as PepsiCo, Red Cross, Scotties Tissues, MTV and Delta Airlines.

"Digital music is a great medium for incentive marketing premiums," said Bill Grassmyer, President of MediaTree. "It appeals to a broad age group, it offers selection and convenience and it's in the right price range with minimal distribution costs. The StoreBlocks music platform also allows us to be very creative with our clients."

The upgraded StoreBlocks Incentive Marketing Platform includes nearly 2.1 million songs in MP3 format plus new features including Macintosh compatibility, which increases interoperability for consumers and adds value to companies offering music incentives to buyers. In addition to the existing redemption and fulfillment technology and custom design capabilities, the new marketing platform presents a package solution for MediaTree and other incentive marketing firms.

Examples of incentive programs offered by MediaTree include a blood-donation drive with Red Cross, through which donors received free music download cards. Scotties Tissues also participated in a limited-time promotion where specially marked packages contained an on-pack PIN code for free music downloads.

"MediaTree has done an amazing job of combining our digital music services with innovative incentive marketing programs to create one-of-a-kind client promotions," said Dave Jaworski, co-founder and CEO of PassAlong Networks. "Because we now offer increased interoperability to our clients and their consumers, we look forward to enhancing our partnership with MediaTree and participating in more creative marketing programs in the future."

PassAlong's StoreBlocks platform can build custom branded stores that can be utilized quickly and easily for marketing programs and special incentives.
