Financial Reasons: Some bad financial decisions were made with the company. We were counting on America’s Army to bring in the money we needed to pay for our boxes and then some. Unfortunately, a GSP cannot survive on AA alone and that’s something we found out too late. We lowered our prices in the Winter of 2009 to be more competitive and also to go with the theory of “More servers at less cost = more money” instead of “less servers at more cost = more money” and that simply isn’t a good idea, one that Primary Target has always understood and is the reason why they have been in business since 2002.
Personal: I personally cannot handle running a GSP on my own anymore. I have recently had a few visits with a doctor to exam some health issues I’ve been having and it’s coming down to stress as the cause. You might say, well what stress can there be? The stress of making bad business decisions and not being able to reverse them in a quick manner to bring the GSP back up to full speed and also the stress of running the whole business on my own.
What happens now? All CoLink Customers located in the UK will be staying on the server they are on currently on until the 20th and we will be working with each and everyone of you to get you moved into one of our new i7 servers. Your IP’s will change but we want to make sure each and everyone of you understand we are putting you on very superior servers and you will be able to rest assure you are with a company that has been in business for a very long time.

We will be happy to work with each and everyone of you to see to it your transition is smooth and effortless for your team. IP’s will be changing and again I will say rest assure you are with a company that has been in business for a very long time and we hope you allow us to provide you your services.
All Colink Customers located in Dallas will have the option to move to Indiana, PA, Chicago, Atlanta or Tacoma Washington. Our Dallas location currently is going threw some upgrades and will be available in the near future but at this point we would need you to select a location from above.
I appreciate the loyalty of my customers and I know by doing this, I’m letting you down a little. I ask you to remain with Primary Target for a month or 2 and get to know the other staff members and give them a try and give me a try to earn your loyalty that you have in me. Thanks.
