Two brothers founded Be Free in the early days of the Web in 1996.
Basically, they developed technologies to allow for merchant-branded
affiliate programs. In fact, the company's first customer was
barnesandnoble.com (in late 1996). Of course, now the company has a slew of
customers, such as AOL, IBM, and Yahoo!
Be Free's technology has evolved quickly catering to business-to-consumer
and business-to-business channels. For customers, Be Free's solutions are
enticing. Essentially, they provide cost-effective customer acquisition - based on
pay-for-performance. Yet, customers do not have to deal with the
many headaches of managing an affiliate program, such as enrollment and
tracking.

Be Free has been diversifying its customer base, adding more
brick-and-mortar companies (about one-third of revenues). Customers include
IBM, Bertelsmann, 3M, Sprint, and Staples.

marketing is expected to represent 50 percent of online marketing by 2003.

million in cash and a market cap of $172 million.
