From staff reports
SAN ANTONIO — Harte-Hanks
Communications Inc. has entered
into a formal agreement with Tele
Support Services in Hasselt, Bel-
gium, to provide response manage-
ment services in Europe on behalf of
Harte-Hanks clients.
The agreement is an extension of
the two companies’ three-year rela-
tionship to provide response man-
agement services including lead and
event management, direct mail, ful-
fillment and telemarketing.
The announcement was made by
Larry Franklin, Harte-Hanks presi-
dent and chief executive officer, and
Richard Hochhauser, president of
Harte-Hanks Direct Marketing.
Harte-Hanks is the parent firm of
Harte-Hanks Community Newspap-
ers, which publishes the Allen
American and eight other publica-
tions in the Metroplex.
“International business, although
a small percent of our direct market-
ing revenues today, is an important
part of our growth plans,” Franklin
said. “Many of our U.S. clients have
significant international operations,
allowing us to expand our rela-
tionships with them and provide ser-
vices to other industries, as well.”
Under the agreement, which pro-
vides Harte-Hanks the option to ac-
quire TSS, proprietary software de-
veloped by Harte-Hanks will be used
to provide response management
services to a growing base of high-
tech and mutual fund clients. The
agreement will complement the ex-
panded service offerings of Harte-
Hanks’ U.S. operations in Austin and
Boston, Mass. Tim Young, presi-
dent of the Boston operation, will
manage this new international
opportunity.
“Response management is one of
the fastest growing core services of
Harte-Hanks Direct Marketing,”
Hochhauser said. “This agreement,
coupled with new product develop-
ment, growth in new industry seg-
ments and expanded coverage with
existing customers will help ensure
continued growth in this important
core service offering.”
Based in San Antonio, Harte-
Hanks Communications Inc. owns
and operates nine daily newspapers
and approximately 40 non-daily pub-
lications, including commnity news-
papers and supplemental publica-
tions; shoppers that are zoned into
574 separate editions reaching 6.9
million households in four major mar-
. kets each week; KENS-TV, the
CBS affiliate in San Antonio; and a
nationwide direct marketing com-
pany that provides a full range of
specialized and coordinated direct
marketing services.
