New Year – new business plans

Just wanted to say today is the beginning of Hatmatic 2010 – that’s 4 years since we opened our doors, and we’re going to try as hard as we might to make 2010 the most successful year yet.  2009 was an odd one for a number of reasons, not least taking on a long term contract with a US start-up against my better judgment, and actually terminating Hatmatic client relationships – D’oh!  It’s a shame I didn’t think a bit harder and past the terms of that contract of engagement, and potentially keeping hold of a few clients, above board etc. Lesson learnt. The start-up product is still good, but the timing was all wrong, it’s still in beta now for crying out loud. Luckily no lasting damage done, and we’ve got a few great clients on our books, together with a strong prospect list which we’re going to be working hard to convert to longer term client relationships.

Looking forward to working with Hotels4u in 2010 and to kick things off we’ve launched an affiliate competition for January. Now’s a great time to start thinking about getting away from it all for a couple of weeks later in the Year.  Hotels4u.com offers low prices on fabulous hotels across Europe and Africa – Turkey, Egypt, Greek Islands among the favorites – and the UK affiliate team have just launched an awesome competition throughout January to encourage program take up as well as try to achieve higher sales volumes through existing affiliates.

Prize details:
A free 7 night stay at the 5 star, all inclusive Mitsis Rodos Village in Rhodes, from 21 April 2010 to 28 April 2010.

Competition details:
For every validated sale made on the Hotels4u affiliate program  between 1st and 31st January, you will receive one numbered ticket  which will be entered into the prize draw. At the end of the month,  winning numbers will be selected at random.

Affiliates are entitled to an unlimited number of tickets, so the more sales you make, the greater the chance of one of your numbers being selected.

We’re also working on some top projects including Diary.com, as well as pushing Impact Radius through the right channels to the masses. Soccer Millionaire and Spot the Football are offering very competitive commissions for new first deposits, the latter paying revenue share on all transactions for 12 months. Well worth checking out the game plays on both these sites anyway – you could win a large sum of cash for predicting the scores of the next round of Premiership games, or you could win a brand new Range Rover for playing the old classic Spot the Football.

Please drop us a note or leave a message if you have any questions about any of our clients.  In time we’ll develop a campaign category, but just keeping the news ticking over for the time being.
