Press Release Body: Cincinnati, Ohio November 6, 2007 - MonitorClosely.com, the
Nation's leading digital surveillance systems franchise, today announced that
national trade publication Franchise Market Magazine has ranked the company
thirtieth on its annual list of \"Top 100 New Franchises\" in its fall 2007 issue.
The ranking is based on number of franchise units and growth rate. \"We\'re very
excited to include MonitorClosely.com. They provide a great franchising concept and
offer cutting edge services for the 21st Century workplace\" said Matt Russell,
publisher of Franchise Market. MonitorClosely.com began selling franchisees in May
2006 and has grown to 75 locations throughout the U.S. and Canada. Denise Donahue,
Senior Vice President of Marketing, said the company is receiving over 150 inquires
a week from individuals interested in acquiring a franchise. "This concept has
attracted a lot of interest because it is not labor intensive, in a fast growth
industry, has a residual income component, and requires very little start-up costs".
MonitorClosely.com's 5-year growth plan is to open 250 offices around the USA and
Canada within the next five years.

Franchisees market, sell, install, and service state-of-the art digital surveillance
systems for commercial and residential use. With the recent advancements in digital
technology, the quality of surveillance systems has significantly increased while
the cost of equipment has continued to decrease. Today's systems are so advanced,
that with hi-speed Internet service, it's possible to monitor surveillance cameras
from anywhere in the World at anytime. The customer base, for the company's
franchisees, is unlimited and includes; day care centers, private schools, assisted
living facilities, retail businesses, apartment complexes, office buildings,
multi-unit fast food restaurants, hotels, banks, and private residences.

Franchisee Marty Williams, Lousiville, KY states, "The MonitorClosely.com franchise
has been what I expected, Great! I did a lot of research before signing up with the
company and after my visits and some test scenarios, I felt MonitorClosely.com would
deliver what they said they would, and so far they have in every area. I mentioned a
promotional idea and Denise Donahue jumped in and put it all together with a great
look. I would have paid thousands to a marketing agency to develop the same piece.
A couple of times I needed to get quick help and I mentioned it to Tom Wein, the
company's President, and he had it taken care of that same day. Everyone there has
gone out of his or her way to make me successful. The security and surveillance
industry is experiencing rapid growth. On every bid I have submitted thus far, I
have been either the best price or right in the ballpark and once the customer
understands our company\'s commitment to service, I get the sale. I am seeing about
an 85% closing rate. The only regret I have so far is that we didn\'t get started
sooner!"
