WOBURN, MA, April 15 / MARKET WIRE/ --

Prospectiv (http://www.prospectiv.com), a provider of online customer
acquisition solutions to leading consumer brands, today announced the
launch of 'Eversave Baby,' a newsletter to an opt-in membership database
of pre-qualified parents seeking special offers, discounts and
information about baby products. Eversave Baby also offers members
articles on baby care and money-saving tips, providing marketers with a
content-rich environment for presenting free samples, product
information, coupons and e-newsletter sign-ups to highly engaged
consumers. Prospectiv is the owner of the online properties
Healthier.com and Eversave.com, and operates a lead generation platform
used by publishers across the Web.

Prospectiv's Eversave Baby offers three main avenues for markets to
reach consumers eager to learn more about their baby/child products and
promotions.

Branded e-newsletters

-- Marketers can reach out directly to Eversave Baby members with

customized branded e-newsletters offering product discounts,
promotions and

savings, in addition to baby and child care articles and tips

Eversave Baby Sponsorship

Baby emails with multiple links back to brand websites

Lead Generation

-- Provides online marketing solutions for marketers of baby products
to

build their own opt-in email lists of pre-qualified consumers who
have

already expressed an interest in their products and brand

Consumers Look Online for Baby Product Information

Prospectiv also polled consumers on how they prefer to conduct their
baby/child products research. Prospectiv's Consumer Preference Index
(CPI) poll findings indicate the following:

-- The majority surveyed (61 percent) use the Internet when researching

and comparing baby/child brands and products.

-- When asked what type of information they're typically seeking
online:

-- 50 percent said they seek product information

-- 44 percent said they are looking for product savings and
discount

offers

When asked what online resources they typically use for conducting
research on baby/child products, search and e-newsletters were their top
choices:

-- Search (47 percent)

-- Email newsletters I signed up for (16 percent)

-- Branded product sites (12 percent)

Consumers Want E-newsletters

Consumers are eager for more information about baby products, not only
through search, but also from direct communications with their preferred
brands and products. Fifty-six percent of consumers polled said that
they would sign up for an e-newsletter that offered promotions, coupons,
tips and advice about baby/child products and topics.

Consumers' main reasons for joining baby/child product-focused
e-newsletters?

-- Information on specials and savings offers (64 percent)

-- Valuable information on new product offerings (24 percent)

-- Information on where to buy products (12 percent)

Only 16 percent surveyed said that they belonged to online forums or
communities focused on baby/child shopping or product information.

"Marketers seeking to reach new and expectant parents need to expand
their marketing and advertising campaigns beyond the niche forums and
communities they typically invest in," said Jere Doyle, president and
CEO of Prospectiv. "Augmenting these efforts with a custom-branded
e-newsletter that goes directly to engaged consumers, in addition to an
ongoing lead generation program for building a targeted house list can
have a tremendous impact on building customer loyalty and increasing
sales."
