GAWK Announces Major New Product Launch, Joins Explosively Growing Toll Free Marketplace

LOS ANGELES, CA--(Marketwired - Oct 12, 2016) - GAWK, Inc. (OTC PINK: GAWK) CEO Scott Kettle announces a major new product launch of toll free origination products for Contact Center and enterprise customers. Kettle said, "GAWK's existing Contact Center customers have long been asking for toll free origination products and GAWK is excited to announce an innovative solution that is a game changer in the toll free calling world. We are now connected to a carrier independent network, which is a revolutionary platform that changes the cost structure of the value chain for toll free services."

Toll free services are an area of telecommunications that has lagged behind the rest of the industry in terms of deregulation and competition. It is ripe for explosive growth. Peer to peer connections with other networks that bypass the traditional access tandem world will revolutionize the delivery of toll free services.

With over 49 million toll free numbers in the USA alone, GAWK has uniquely positioned itself to deliver the next generation of VOIP based solutions to Contact Center and enterprise users.
