ei42 Newsletter Monday 10 March 2009

With apologies for the lack of recent newsletters let’s get stuck straight into the news for this week.
Authorise your Charity or Fundraiser status

New Marketing Material
Over the past few weeks we have been working with a major web based printing organisation called 'Printwell' to provide an online resource where our members can purchase all Ei42 promotional items. It has been a much steeper hill than we imagined but at last I am finally able to report that this facility is now online and ready to take orders. The site contains options of ‘personalised’ or ‘Generic’ versions of a wide variety of printed material including, postcards, leaflets, posters and a choice of two types of business cards. The ‘Starter Packs’ priced from just £12.99 are exceptionally good value and contain a mixture of all currently available items. (except business cards)
You will need to create an account on the portal as this is a separate system to your Ei42 account.
Ei42 Print Portal is available here www.ei42.com/print alternatively you can click the ‘Marketing Material’ link from within your admin area.
3 Steps to Success

We have two new guides to help you get the most from your Ei42 opportunity. Take a few moments to read through the following ‘3 Steps to Success’ & ‘Strive for Five’ you will find them very beneficail.

Not Happy with Your Username?
Did you know that we can change your username for you? If when you joined you used a username that you now wished you had not chosen then we can change that for you. So, you can say goodbye to www.ei42.com/why-did-I-choose-this-name and hello to a new name of your choice.
Use the Availability Checker to see if the name you would like is still available then submit a ticket to the Helpdesk to request a change.
New Country Launch
Just in case anyone is still unaware of this little fact, Ei42 will be launching in the USA shortly. As soon as I have an exact date I will let you know but I can tell you that it will be very soon. You will then be able to refer friends in America to get their own Ei42 shop just like yours, but with American stores of course. Please don’t ask your friends in the States to join just yet though because they will want their default currency to be USD not GBP.
That’s all for this week.

I wish you continued success with Ei42
Best Regards
Steve Dawson
Managing Director
