  BOCA RATON, FL, Apr 20 (MARKET WIRE) -- 
Today VOIS, Inc. (pronounced "Voice") (OTCBB: VOIS) (OTCBB: VOISW)
launched a new social sourcing website aimed at slicing through the
malaise and red tape of the traditional recruitment and employment model.

    Vois.com aims to be the first social commerce site that leverages the
power of social networking to help a global audience find and offer
immediate work. With VOIS, members can post work, find work and network
-- all without ironing slacks or visiting Kinkos.

    What's this all mean? Basically, Vois.com combines the super-charged
social connectivity of Facebook with the job search savvy of a
Monster.com. From the professional's perspective, you get to build
rapport with peers, form virtual cross-functional teams, and then bid on
and tackle both temporary and permanent projects. You can also fly solo
as a freelance contractor with a skill set and a dream. Meanwhile,
employers have on-demand access to individuals and teams to supplement
bandwidth when needed.

    Of course, VOIS is more than this; instead of encouraging anonymous,
cookie-cutter relationships within virtual closed-in cubicles, the social
commerce platform is more like an all-access networking mixer minus the
watered down drinks. Buyers and sellers are encouraged to get to know more
than each other's online handles and hourly rates through chat rooms,
internal messaging, robust profiles and even a trusty rating system.

    While standard freelance marketplaces typically take between 8-20% of the
provider's payment by notoriously nickel and diming users with fees and
fine print, VOIS is adhering to a "Freemium" model. This model offers a
free version of its website to any member but is supported by paid credits
of its most frequent users.

    "It's about having people become their own brand," stated Gary Schultheis,
Co-Founder of VOIS. "In the past we were all told 'work hard for corporate
America, put in your time and corporate America will take care of you.' As
we are seeing with massive corporate layoffs recently, that is no longer
true. VOIS has the ability to let you promote yourself, and build an
online reputation with feedback."

    Herb Tabin, Co-Founder of VOIS, stated: "I believe we give people a lot of
opportunity. We want to provide people with the opportunity to work from
home or anywhere, using VOIS' flexible online work environment. With
today's technology there is simply no need for most people to commute to
an office. As long as the service they provide can be performed virtually,
such as programming, accounting, as a virtual assistant or web designer,
it seems antiquated to go to an office."
