Press Release Summary = Successful campaign demonstrates ability to move outside of
usual HR, manufacturing or enterprise software and services clients

Press Release Body = FT. WORTH, Texas - October 2, 2006 - Starr Tincup, an
integrated marketing firm that serves software and services companies through
customer selection, acquisition and retention, together with their client
QuantumClean, recently implemented an online customer feedback survey that achieved
a 13 percent response rate during a one-week period. This campaign is among several
that have proven that Starr Tincup's metrics-driven sales and marketing model allows
them to achieve success with a client outside of Starr Tincup's core customer, such
as QuantumClean.

Starr Tincup's client base consists primarily of companies involved in either HR
software and services, manufacturing software and services or enterprise software
and services. However, QuantumClean is the leading provider of outsourced parts
cleaning for the semiconductor industry, which puts them on the outer edge of the
manufacturing, software and services category.

"Our success with this campaign demonstrates how our marketing process works for a
variety of clients, including those outside of our usual client base," said Bret
Starr, principal and co-founder of Starr Tincup. "Our string of successful endeavors
with QuantumClean proves that, because of our metrics-driven model, we are capable
of working with a client whose business is outside our typical target industries."
Starr Tincup typically provides pragmatic marketing strategies based on the Active
PathT model for services and software clients, and it has successfully employed the
same marketing model with QuantumClean. The Active Path is Starr Tincup's
metrics-driven sales and marketing model for companies with complex sales processes,
and has been proven successful in a multiplicity of B2B industries, such as HR
software and services, manufacturing software and services, Internet services,
telecommunication hardware and real estate services The firm's Active Path model is
the basis for all of Starr Tincup's marketing efforts and allows them to service
clients both in and outside of its core customer base.
"Our Active Path model enables us to effectively serve clients whose businesses
provide a varying assortment of services and who have very diverse needs," said J.
William Tincup, principal and co-founder of Starr Tincup. "It is an efficient way
for our clients to select, acquire and retain new customers."
