FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 18, 2001--CAM Commerce Solutions (Nasdaq:CADA - news) today announced that it has created a new CPA Business Development Alliance aimed at recruiting 100 CPA firms for the year 2001.

The goal of the program is to provide more than 10,000 current, future, and prospective clients with professional training and consulting services on a local basis through a limited number of member CPA firms. The New CPA Business Development Alliance Program will be officially introduced at the AICPA (American Institute of Certified Public Accountants) tradeshow on June 18, 2001. The AICPA Tech 2001 tradeshow will be held in Las Vegas.

When small CPA firms were asked what their number one problem was in building their practice, the top answers were ``finding new clients'' or ``marketing.'' The number one benefit CAM can offer our CPA Partners is new clients and potentially the most effective marketing program available for a very small investment. The Business Development Alliance will also compensate CPA Partners to perform on-site training and consulting for new CAM clients in their local area. In addition, CAM will introduce the ``primary'' partner in a geographic area to its existing client base.

``Our experience has shown us that our happiest and most successful clients are those with proper business and financial controls. Most retailers need help managing their business and putting these controls in place. We see a tremendous need for the services of a qualified CPA with the vast majority of our clients. Many of them are not receiving these services now. A CPA who specialized in retail and who knew our customers business system inside and out would be an invaluable asset for our customer,'' stated Geoff Knapp, CEO of CAM Commerce Solutions.
