ATLANTA, July 6, 2004 (PRIMEZONE) -- Kingdom Ventures, Inc. (OTCBB:KDMV) is pleased to announce its first Major Market Licensee in Atlanta, Georgia. Atlanta Christian Times(tm) will be operated by Intellectual Currency Exchange with Rodney S. Sampson I, MBA as Founder & Chairman. The Atlanta Christian Times Today(tm) will provide relevant information as it relates to the pulse of news, business, sports, life, community and diversity in Atlanta, Georgia.
The Atlanta Christian Times Today(tm) operates in an exciting, multi-billion dollar industry. "We directly or indirectly touch the lives of the 92% of all Atlanta's residents who embrace belief in God," states Sampson, founder of the Atlanta Christian Times Today. Almost two-thirds of Atlanta's residents consider faith to be very important in their lives. Through the tremendous success of Mel Gibson's movie The Passion of the Christ, Atlanta, this nation, and the world have recently witnessed marketplace loyalty and economic trends that signal the undeniable emergence of a new era of Christian and faith-based marketplace opportunities. As the firm of choice for African American, Latino and faith based marketing and strategic alliances for Icon Productions, The Intellectual Currency Exchange clearly demonstrated the tremendous spending power of the church and its constituents, particularly as it related to Passion advance ticket sales and theatrical receipts.
"We plan to aggressively increase the number of Major Markets publishing Christian Times Today. We plan to accomplish this by selling Christian Times licensing rights to local businesses interested in becoming our publishing partners. This is not only the least capital intensive approach for rapid expansion, but also a way to provide opportunities for local Christian entrepreneurs wanting to build a solid publishing business. If you are interested in being part of Christian Times' growth, please contact us immediately," says Gene Jackson, President and Chief Executive Officer of Kingdom Ventures, Inc.
