Sales Down - Membership up up and away!
In line with the general economy of the UK (and the world) we are seeing overall sales at a reduced level. This doesn't surprise me (does it you?) the fact is that most of us are being more cautious with what we spend, when we spend and with who we spend our hard earned money. In many ways there has never been a better time to tell your friends about how Ei42 can help them save money on all of their online purchases, remembering our motto;
"Buy what you want, when you want, from who you want" 
Depite the downturn in sales membership of Ei42 continues to grow at an ever increasing pace and when we all emerge from the reccession I am confident that all of your efforts will be justly rewarded.   
Announcing the launch of the Ei42 Franchise Opportunity.
I am today proud to announce the launch of the Ei42 Franchise opportunity. This will not be something that every member is going to be interested in but there will be those of you who are perhaps from a direct selling or B2B selling environment who are looking for a new challenge and will be excited about this new opportunity from Ei42.
What is the Opportunity?
All Ei42 shops are Free and will remain Free for all Ei42 members but Franchise owners will be licensed to sell corporate branding for Ei42 shops to other businesses.
Ei42 is the fastest growing online shopping network in the UK, launched into the UK on February 1st 2008 and for the USA in February 2009 we are now embarking on an ambitious new plan to become the fastest growing new franchisee in 2009.
It is our intention to have One Hundred Ei42 Franchises operating within one year of our first franchise launch, which is why we are making a sensational opening offer to our existing members before offering the opportunity to the general public and before placing any other national advertising.
The Offer
We have set the ‘launch price’ of an Ei42 franchise at only £5995.00 this price covers everything that you will need to get started with this unique opportunity and includes 2 days of training at our head office in Coventry.
The Offer (50% DISCOUNT)
The first 10 people who accept this unique offer will be considered as ‘Pilot’ franchise operators and will be able to buy their franchise at a huge 50% reduction.
That’s Right! - The first 10 franchise operators will pay ONLY £2997.50
Who is eligible for this offer?
We thought long and hard about this especially given the current difficult times being experienced by many people in both financial and employment areas. We have therefore decided that this offer is available to anyone who is either an existing member of Ei42 or a friend of an existing member. In other words the offer is available to you or anyone that you know. It seems to me that this is a very fair way of awarding the initial 10 pilot franchises at the discounted rate.
When does this offer expire?
The offer expires as soon as we have accepted the first 10 franchise operators.

That’s all for this week.

I wish you continued success with Ei42
