Marketcircle Inc. has decided to give Main Street America's Mac freelancers and small businesses a break by lowering the price on Billings 3 time tracking and invoicing software, from US$59.95 to US$39.95 for a seven-week period. Upgrades are also priced lower now. Marketcircle's Billings 3 "Give Main Street A Break Sale" puts 20 bucks back into the pockets of Main Street entrepreneurs, “at a time when it really matters.”

With the U.S. Federal Government busy managing a $700 billion bailout for Wall Street, Marketcircle Inc. is now offering Billings 3 for US$39.95, while a Billings 3 upgrade for Billings 2.x users is also on sale for US$25 (instead of US$35). The deal ends on November 30, 2008.

"While Wall Street's needs are being attended to, we believe Main Street's Mac freelancer and small business community deserves a break as well," says Marketcircle's CEO Alykhan Jetha. "Billings 3 sales so far have been fantastic, and to say thank-you the Billings 3 "Give Main Street A Break Sale" puts 20 bucks back into the pockets of Main Street entrepreneurs at a time we think it really matters. We recognize the fact that existing small business owners in the United States are facing challenges, and also that layoffs in large corporations are creating a rising population of freelancers - all of these people deserve the productivity advantages of Billings 3."
