Our Customization for Dweep
Every product needs to look for potential new customers, no
matter how well established it is. That is why presenting
Dweep to new groups of users is very important. This
includes updating previous listings, submitting Dweep to
many new Software Sites, placing the file in forums where CompuServe and AOL
members gather and spreading the good news to hundreds of PC User
Groups. A nicely formatted HTML email sent out to PC User
Groups, also helps draw attention to this great puzzle game.

Reviews Response from Press Mailing:
Dweep had overwhelming response from PC User Groups! These PC User groups
not only had some fun, they got some good discounts and even gave demos to their
members. Some of these user groups even have memberships ranging
from 600 - 20,000 members. Examples of
PC User Groups are: Computer Erie Bay Users Group, Tucson Computer Society,ASCCA (The Australian Senior Computer Clubs Association), Olympia Microcomputer Users Group, Tri-County Computer User
group and Roanoke Valley Personal Computer Club etc.
And we also submitted Dweep to WUGNET (Windows Users Group
Network),
so it was a bonus that Dweep got picked as Microsoft(r) and WUGNET Windows Me/98
Shareware Pick of the Week for June
3, 2001 This site averages over a million visitors monthly,
so you can imagine the boost to downloads for Dweep!
