Rainmaker Systems, Inc. Announces Recent Bookings Successes Campbell, CA - July 10, 2013 - Rainmaker Systems, Inc. (OTCQB: RMKR), a Silicon Valley- based technology company in the Cloud-Based B2B e-commerce market, today announced that

it closed in excess of $8 million in bookings for its second fiscal quarter, ending June 30, 2013. Revenue associated with these contracts will be recognized in accordance with the contractual terms of the agreements.

"The level of new business closed over the last several months validates the effectiveness of our renewed focus and investments in Sales, Marketing and Development," said Donald J. Massaro, president and CEO. "In addition, we have spent the last six months developing and implementing processes and procedures that help ensure these and future bookings are of the highest quality, consistent with our strategy, and that they yield acceptable margins for the business," said Massaro.

The new bookings were spread across all products offerings. "These recent deals underscore the strength of our existing relationships with strategic customers, as well as confirm the demand for the compelling value proposition we bring to new and existing customers," Massaro said. "I believe revenue is a result, not an objective. The quarter's incremental new bookings and our sales pipeline are building toward that result. We are encouraged by our progress."
