Abstract
The system of the present invention provides systems and methods for selling goods and services in conjunction with the Internet. The system receives session information on a customer's website session from the enterprise's website and may also receive customer information on the customer from the enterprise. The system determines from the received information whether the customer represents a sales opportunity, based on a set of rules of engagement for the enterprise and whether the customer wants or could use assistance from a sales associate. The system further produces a ranked list of sales associates matched for each sales opportunity. A customer queue is created for each sales associate that has the sales opportunities matched with the sales associate. The system determines, for a first sales associate, a number of sales opportunities to approach at one time in the first sales associate's customer queue, automatically approaches the customers associated with each sales opportunity in the customer queue for the first sales associate and requests whether the customer desires assistance from a sales associate until the number of sales opportunities to approach is reached or the customer contacted previously requested assistance from a sales associate, receives responses from the customers, determines, for a response from a customer desiring assistance, if the first sales associate is available to assist the customer desiring assistance, and passes the customer desiring assistance to the first sales associate, if the first sales associate is available.

Important Notes on Latency of Status data
Please note there is up to 60 days of latency in this Status indicator for certain status conditions. You can obtain up-to-date Status indicator readings by ordering PAIR for the file.
An application with the status "Published" (which means it is pending) may be recently abandoned, but not yet updated to reflect its abandoned status. However, an application filed less than one year ago is unlikely to be abandoned.
A patent with the status "Granted" may be recently expired, but not yet updated to reflect its expired status. However, it is highly unlikely a patent less than 3.5 years old would be expired.
An application with the status "Abandoned" is almost always current, but there is a small chance it was recently revived and the status not yet updated.
Important Note on Priority Date data
This priority date is an estimated earliest priority date and is purely an estimation. This date should not be taken as legal conclusion. No representations are made as to the accuracy of the date listed. Please consult a legal professional before relying on this date.
