Newsletter Monday 27 October 2008
Newsletter – New Day
Firstly an announcement regarding the weekly newsletters. Due to the end of week pressures that always occur on Fridays I have decided to change the day on which the newsletter is distributed. From today newsletters will now be sent weekly on Monday night.
Incredible as it may seem, this coming Saturday is November 1st and like it or not Christmas is coming!
With that in mind, from this week we will start sending out emails that contain relevant special offers and deals that will hopefully help you with your Christmas shopping and earn you and your friends commissions as well. These email will be in addition to the newsletter and are controlled by a different mailing list called ‘Latest Offers’ you can unsubscribe from any of the mailing lists either from within your admin area or simply by clicking the unsubscribe link contained in each and every email that you receive from us. Naturally we prefer if you stay subscribed and we always endeavour to keep the amount of emails we send you to a minimum.
Tri-Fold Flyers
Stock of the first delivery of the Tri-Fold flyers is now running short. Naturally we will be ordering further supplies shortly but in the meantime if you do wish to buy any I suggest you get on the phone today. Orders received before 2.00pm should be with you the following day.
The flyers are identical to those that you can download for free and print off yourself at home but home printing in full colour double sided would cost you between 50p and £1.00 each dependant on your printer, whereas these work out at 10p each when we take into account postage costs.
As promised these are being made available to you at cost price, bundled in packs of 125 at £7.50 plus postage & packing which is an unavoidable extra £5.00 making a total of £12.50 per pack.
These will be delivered to you unfolded as A4 sheets so that you can overprint or write on your own details. Then simply fold them as you use them.
We can accept most major credit and debit cards so if you wish to place an order please call the supplies team between 9am and 5.30pm Monday to Friday on 0845 095 3429
Prices on quantities over 1000 are available on request however we recommend that you trial with one of these small amounts before ordering larger quantities.
The Power of Flyers
I wanted to pass on some knowledge about the sort of results that can be expected from cold flyers (a flyer simply posted through a door), at best the result is generally accepted as between 1% and 3 % for flyers delivered in this way so you would need to post a lot to get results.
The real worth of these flyers is being able to physically hand one to people. It may be a neighbour in your street, a person you meet in a supermarket or even when you pay your paper bill. If you buy just the minimum of 125 you will be surprised how easily you will find 125 people to physically hand one of these over to. For example think about giving one to the dustbin collector, the receptionist at the Doctors, your local gym, children’s football club, bar person, car wash attendant. The list is endless and handing them out in this way will achieve much better results than simply pushing them through doors and praying.
Simply say to the person you are giving them to “please take a look at this, I’m sure you will find it interesting. I’ll check with you next time I see you to find out what you thought”
Remember also that whatever you do and whatever you say, not everyone will join.
New Country Launch
I have good news and bad news on this so let’s deal with the good news first. The development is complete and we are in the final stages of testing.
Now the bad news, the legal complications are still holding us up which is very frustrating for us all. The reason for these extended delays is that our lawyers are making changes that will allow us to quickly expand anywhere in the world but essentially throughout Europe, America, Canada and Australia so I’m sure you will agree that the wait will eventually be worth it. With Christmas now approaching and the number of people joining in the UK rocketing it is now a possibility that we will not launch another Country this year. I appreciate that will be a disappointment to many of you and although Country expansion is always exciting do not forget that there are still over 30 Million adults in the UK that have never heard of Ei42 so do not be worried that you will run out of people to tell here in the UK.
That’s all for this week.
I wish you continued success with Ei42
Best Regards
Steve Dawson
Managing Director
