Sector Space – Identity & Dialogue Services
WEB BASED COMMERCIAL AND PRODUCTION AGREEMENTS FOR EXTENDED & GLOBAL ENTERPRISE
Web Sectors Corporation, Sector Identity Services Division
I. Introduction
The Pact-Works Corporation in collaboration with Web Sectors Inc. has announced a “real place” for “real businesses” on the World Wide Web. It’s not for surfing, its for working. Its not for casual searching, its for finding. Its not for chatting, its for straight, coherent business talk. There’s nothing virtual about it. (Business has difficulty with virtual things) It is for presenting whole business identities and agendas to a transitioning business world looking for global opportunity and collaboration. It is for doing business, global style.
Dubbed “Sector Space it adds a new and practical web dimension for credible enterprise activities that was not there before. Its objective is to make opportunity clearer and major forms of collaboration practical, manageable and sure footed.
Sector Space is not a home page, not a portal, not an AOL look-alike or some other proprietary landscape. Sector space surrounds each freely participating pact member web site. It accommodates each enterprise’s thoroughly defined identity and its up-to-the-minute public relations, marketing and operating messages. It is the meeting space and working space for new, extremely efficient working relationships and opportunities. It is a place where agreements are made and global businesses are positioned for action.
Sector Space does not eliminate the techie web, the fun web, the personal web, the shopping web or the virtually anything web experience. It simply makes the active business world more visible, more organized, more coherent, more accountable and totally distinguishable from everything else on the web. Something many non commercial communities feel they can do without. In fact, many people welcome the distancing of the business mentality to different quarters, even though it is just a sector away.
The Business Sector is for every active business venture in the world that wishes to stand up and be counted as “in” and “ready for” business.
II. NO LONGER ADRIFT
You are still on the web. Being in the Web Business Sector simply means you are easily identified, easily differentiated, easily searched for and easily found.

B. The Importance Of Profile Maintenance
1. We All Share the responsibility for maintaining the accuracy of the WWWBS Information Data base
Your company and Web Sector share the responsibility for providing up-to-date and accurate information. Your company is the ultimate authority on you profile content. Everyone’s generic information expires 1 year to the day after profile activation. 30 days before expiration and again 14 days before expiration, your CEO or the CEO’s appointed officer will be notified of the approaching expiration and be asked to have the profile reviewed and ,if necessary, updated.
If the information in your identity profile is to remain unchanged, an automatic email reply from the original addressee will set the expiration ahead 1 year.
If your profile requires maintenance, your appointed maintenance person or outside service should be directed to make repairs by initiating a Web Sector profile maintenance session. Upon completion of maintenance, the expiration date will be automatically advanced.
A maintenance session can always be used to advance the expiration data of your profile.
2. If you have stopped active business and shut down your site.
You should initiate a profile maintenance session. Select a notice Template. And enter any additional information needed to clarify your company’s status. We will automatically notify visitors attempting to get to your site via Sector Search of the circumstances you have give us to publish. This type of automatic visitor notification can be used to inform about a permanent of temporary condition.
(1) Gone out of business. No further information supplied.
(2) We have sold our business. Please refer to the new owners.
(3) Our site will be down 2 weeks for repairs. We expect to reopen on May 1st.
(4) We have changed our name. Please go to our new site at xxxxx.
(5) Etc.
b. If you have given the job of profile maintenance to a qualified and registered 3rd party
3. If our tests of your site do not produce the information specified in your Dialogue Table Of Contents
Or if visitors report breakdown of your company’s dialogue content, your CEO or appointed officer will be notified (by e-mail)and requested to make remedy by reducing you catalog contents appropriately
This does not eliminate your company from the data base, but until your profile is corrected, your Quality Tier Rating will be lowered thus informing others who understand the Quality Tier Status System system that your table of contents or identity may not be temporarily unreliable.
