We are fortunate to be experiencing a major surge in our AR Ecommerce division to the point where we are hiring additional personnel to handle the incoming orders. Also, we are in the market and experiencing a lot of interest in our new Virtual Conference offering which we believe will lead to meaningful new contract revenue in the short term”.
