Prosperity America, Inc is a broad based teleservices and call center company.  Our mission is based on the premise that we believe that the collections, call center and related back office services industries are headed in the wrong direction.  Our company is concerned that this space is not being used to support and develop productive jobs for our own citizens.  While tens of thousands of jobs are being migrated to places like India, the Philippines, the Caribbean and elsewhere American service people their families and communities are having difficulty finding viable employment we want to change that by developing jobs here. The company believes that our business space is an ideal medium for developing, implementing and bringing this vision to fulfillment.  For more information about our company and the mission it is dedicated to fulfilling go to www.prosperityamerica.us.com.
