DALLAS, TX – June 30, 2008 - A new contract between 2TurnItOn, Inc. and
CivicPlus, a municipal website management and development company, may link
2TurnItOn.com to more than 275 city Web sites across the United States. In
Texas alone, they will expand their reach to 54 new cities and counties.
The link to 2TurnItOn.com will allow residents in select cities across 40
states to connect all their utilities, including city water, through a single
Internet-based application. In addition, they’ll be able to comparison shop to
find the best utility rates, resulting in as much as a 25% savings on
electricity, natural gas, Internet, cable and satellite television, as well as
local and long-distance telephone. Best of all, 2TurnItOn.com is free to
consumers.
“2TurnItOn.com provides an invaluable service to cities and their residents,
and we’re excited to be offering their innovative technology to our municipal
clients,” says Jesse J. Manning, product manager at CivicPlus. “And, because
using 2TurnItOn’s service is free to both cities and consumers, we expect our
clients to fully embrace it and benefit from it.”
“Our partnership with CivicPlus brings us a step closer to making 2TurnItOn.com
the online utility connection service of choice with cities across the country,
particularly because it’s the only site that connects city water,” said Howard
Yonce, president and CEO of 2TurnItOn, Inc. “This is clearly a win-win
arrangement for everyone involved.”
CivicPlus is promoting 2TurnItOn.com’s service to existing municipal clients,
as well as all new customers. They will be charging a nominal set-up fee for
adding a link. However, additional charges will apply for customized graphic
links.
