DRAPER UT, May 7, 2009 - Telarus, Inc., premier telecom master agent and creator of ShopforT1.com, ShopforEthernet.net, and VARNetwork.com, today announced the launch of "Proposal Creator 2.0." The point-and-click proposal creator is a newly upgraded function of the custom-built Telarus Agent Back Office that gives agents the ability to create private-labeled carrier service proposals for their customers in just seconds. The technology was unveiled to the public at the annual Telarus Agent Conference in Las Vegas, Nevada on February 28, 2009.

According to Andrew Morgan, VP of Web Development for Telarus, Inc., "What sets Proposal Creator 2.0 apart from the previous version, and from other off-the-shelf telecom software manufacturers, is its ability to synthesize many aspects of the Telarus CRM such as an unlimited number of customer locations. By using GeoQuote, which can quote multiple broadband and voice services per location in real-time, the new proposal system pulls elements of these two platforms into one, easy-to-modify proposal that can be sent to a prospect in PDF format in just seconds."

"Technology will be a key ingredient to success in the future of carrier sales in the channel," commented Adam Edwards, President of Telarus, Inc. "We understand that, and work extremely hard in conjunction with our subagents to develop the tools they need to gain the upper hand in the sales process. Being able to formally propose telecom services in a quick, yet professional format is a key element to success, and we at Telarus are excited to be on the cutting edge of providing these tools to our general agent population."

Proposal Creator 2.0 comes standard in the Telarus Agent Back Office, as well as in the private-labeled MARS system - which stands for Master Agent Reporting System. MARS is Telarus' "Master Agent in a Box" software that empowers up-and-coming master agents, who leverage Telarus' carrier contracts, to sign up, manage, and support unlimited subagents. In addition to Proposal Creator 2.0, MARS comes with all of the features Telarus provides its own subagents: SalesForce.com-like CRM, patented real-time carrier quotes, telecom commission and accounting software, and even a trouble ticket system.

The Telarus Proposal Creator 2.0 software features many mission critical modules to a Telarus agent's success, namely:

• Multiple locations on one proposal
• Multiple carrier quotes per location
• Multiple carrier services per location - including PRI, Voice T1, SIP, and POTS
• Customization of every paragraph in the proposal
• Simple word processor interface - no coding required
• Private-labeled with agent's own logo
• Instant conversion to Adobe PDF format - delivered as an attachment to a standard email
• Hide/Show carrier logo option for agents who may not feel comfortable enough to disclose carrier identities for fear of an end-run
• Future access to all past proposals and real-time price quotes in the customer's CRM record

"In sales, timing is everything" added Lance Akins, VP of Sales for Telarus. "When a customer wants a proposal, they expect that an agent will be able to assist them immediately. The new Telarus Proposal Creator 2.0 allows our agents to create these proposals based on the results they receive from our patented GeoQuote real-time price generation system. The entire process takes just minutes, drastically compacting the time from quote to proposal to signed paperwork. In sales, getting back to customers with detailed proposals quickly demonstrates competence and skill. Making our agents look good in the eyes of their prospective clients is what Telarus, and our new Proposal Creator 2.0, is all about."
