Since ProfNet is doing away with their sole practitioner rate and will start charging the roughly $3,500 full agency rate for their service...does anyone have some much cheaper alternatives they like and/or would recommend?

I found helpareporter. com, which is not only free, but hysterical. I'm sure there are not as many queries, but so far I've come across some good ones that fit.

I haven't really found a source that's a extensive as ProfNet - nor as well-known or well-used by reporters. I suspect that if you use any of the company's other products - like Vocus - that you might be able to negotiate a lower rate for a package that would include ProfNet but I'm not even sure about that anymore.
