HOW IT WORKS:

Every day as the newspapers are delivered to our offices, a legal notice specialist extracts every legal notice on its first publication. Second and Third publications of the same legal notice are not extracted again. These legal notices are scanned and put through an OCR process where they are converted to text. They are entered into our database where they are given one or more categories. (For example, if a bid is for a new city water tank then that bid would be flagged with a “water tank” category). Each client has their own custom search profile. This client profile contains information on each client as well as a list of categories that are specific to that client. In addition to categories, each client may have as many specific keywords as needed to properly cover their requirements. Every afternoon our custom program tries first to match legal notice categories with those categories that are listed in the client’s profile. Next, if a legal notice did not match by category then the program searches for keyword matches. All matches are delivered by email in .pdf format each afternoon.

RATES:

Custom Legal Notice Reports via email: Legal Notices are processed daily and emailed daily. Single state coverage (AL, LA, or MS) IS $125.00 per month and $1.25 per clip. To add additional states add $25.00 per state per month to the $125.00 reading fee. All clippings produced by us remain $1.25 each. All clippings from outside of (AL or LA or MS) range from $1.50 to $4.25 each depending upon our exchange rate with other services. To add a 2nd recipient email address within your company, add an additional $5.00 per month.

INSTRUCTIONS:

The below-listed categories are all that we have listed at this time. Please read down the list and cut and paste, hi-light or mark in some way all categories that you and your company will be interested in receiving legal notices in. It is impossible to have a separate category for each item that you might sell or each service that you provide. Some of the topics i.e.: “equipment heavy” are general descriptions and would include bids on all types of heavy equipment rather than listing each item. All of the selected items will be entered into your account search profile. Specific items can be covered in your keyword list also located in your account profile and used in all searches. A Magnolia representative will be happy to work with you on getting your account profile categories and topics set up. After your service starts client profiles often have to be tweaked to yield more accurate results. In addition to the legal notices, we can also supply newspaper articles that would be an indication that something in your field will be coming up, i.e.: “Supervisors discuss their need for a particular item”. Usually, a legal notice will follow. We call these articles “first talk”. Many of our clients want these articles as they feel that it may be an opportunity to supply a potential buyer with information that may be used in the writing of the specks for that item. These “first talk” articles will be mailed weekly each Thursday.
