Thousands of private business owners invited to join the Entrex and Private Business Channel Private Company Index.

Chicago, IL (09-01-2005) Entrex (www.entrex.net) and Private Business Channel www.privatebusinesschannel.com is extending an invitation to thousands of private business owners to join the first ever, Private Business Index.

As any public corporation knows, there is tangible value in being a "Dow, S&P or Russell Company." But the door to that value, to that prestige has long been closed to private companies. Until now. Until the Entrex PBC Index.

Similar to other current indicators and indexes like the Dow and S & P, the Entrex/PBC Private Company Index will provide the financial market with the ability to objectively measure private business activity as well providing business owners and the general public to follow the trends and productivity of privately owned businesses.

A Private Business Index should have been created a long time ago. I immediately signed up for the index as I had nothing to lose and much to gain. Besides the additional PR benefits for me and my company, as a private business owner I am curious to follow the activity of the private business market place" says one of the first company owners to sign up for the index.

There is no cost associated with the Private Business Index-only increased exposure and visibility. Every week Index companies are required to submit their weekly sales numbers. Entrex statisticians then consolidate the associated private business activity into a seasonally adjusted weekly "Entrex/PBC Private Company Index"... the Index's results will then be distributed across the global media channels.

The Index is scheduled to be launched in mid-to-late September. To find out more about becoming a Private Business Index company email index@entrex.net, call (877) 4-Entrex ext. 804.
