ETM Marks Its Twelfth Anniversary

Developing Success, One Product and One Year at a Time

CEDAR RAPIDS, IOWA — (November 12, 2013) — ETM, developer of WingsPlus for statutory financial reporting and tax compliance — and UPExchange for unclaimed property reporting — marks its twelfth year in business this month. ETM established its market position with WingsPlus, a cloud-based suite of applications for annual and quarterly statements, integrated state financial filing forms, premium/municipal taxes, risk location, portfolio accounting and reporting, and compliance calendaring. It expanded its multi-industry presence with UPExchange, its cloud-based system for unclaimed property reporting, with which it earned the exclusive endorsement of the National Association of Unclaimed Property Administrators (NAUPA)(*).

“We’re not sure what’s more gratifying,” said Layton Olson, ETM’s CEO, “celebrating 12 years of unbroken success, even through some economic downturns — or developing a product as successful as UPExchange as part of our recent history. Either way, we’re extremely grateful for the support of our ever-growing customer base, even as we depend on their input to continually enhance our existing products and to continue to develop new ones. We couldn’t do it without them, and they give us much for which to be proud.”

Reporting deadlines drive demand for the better mouse trap.

CEDAR RAPIDS, IOWA — (November 5, 2013) — Just a month after marking its twenty-thousandth subscriber to UPExchange — ETM's acclaimed system for unclaimed property reporting and the only offering of its kind on the market that is available from the cloud — ETM now has more than 23,000 holders of unclaimed property subscribed. This is in addition to the 25 states that now accept online, electronic reports and/or payment submissions for unclaimed property, with more states in implementation.

“If necessity is the mother of invention, reporting deadlines are the mother of necessity” said Layton Olson, CEO at ETM. “With November 1 as a reporting deadline for many jurisdictions, thousands of holders of unclaimed property were looking to automate and simplify their reporting processes. Especially with cloud delivery, UPExchange gives them the improvements they want, along with the accuracy and compliance they need.”
