 The Global Economic crisis has taken its toll on many companies, both big and small.
Fortunately En101 has dodged the ax, and has no plans of throwing in the towel.
I am very proud that En101 has been in business nearly 4½ years. In this industry most companies fail in their first year. Of those that survive, a majority fail in their second year. If a company makes it through the third year, that is a great accomplishment. Once you reach that 4th year threshold, you really have something to brag about.
Now, I must admit, I have kept myself in the background of En101 - because what I really enjoy doing is developing. I am proud of the development team that I have that can bring my (and their) ideas from the drawing board to the web. And I am proud of what we now have. It has been a fun 4½ years.
This is the reason I am writing this blog. I must apologize to each of you who are reading this blog because I feel I have let you down. Even though we have a viable product (and experts predict a billion new people will be learning English over the next several years), I have spent most of my time working on the product and have not spend ample time on the marketing aspect of En101.
But – as of now - that changes.
 I want to introduce to you, Charles Broomfield. I brought Charles onboard to head up the Marketing department of En101. I have known Charles most of my life, and he is a very honest and straight-forward person. With a background in sales, marketing, investments and accounting, I know Charles is the right person to head En101 into the midst of this global economic crisis that is facing everyone around the globe.
Charles has brought some fresh new marketing ideas to En101 and he is dedicated to your success.
Over the next couple of weeks Charles will share his ideas with you and what he sees in the future for En101 and its partners. Follow his lead. Many people have achieved phenomenal success in En101, and he is here to help as many that want to help themselves.
In this global economic crisis people have to make decisions. You could 1.) wait (I guess, but you should take a look at where you are now, and where you will be if you do wait). Or, you could 2.) once again promote En101 with the vigor and determination that you had when you first heard about the concept.
I invite you to promote.
Regards,
Richard

En101 is a lot of things to a lot of people.
But to see the underlying reason for EN101, simply look at the pictures here.
En101 can be the stairway to YOUR future.
But, it's up to you to take the steps.
What a fine looking group!
Thank you to the teachers of En101.
Because of you, we are here!

 Every En101 member now has their very own @en101.com
email address!
Here's how it works....
1. Check to make sure your email address listed with En101 is correct.
2. Test this by sending yourself an email at "your_En101_site_name@en101.com".
-
Example: if your En101 site name is "go4it", your En101 email address is: go4it@en101.com
NOW... When someone sends you an email at your_En101_site_name@en101.com, it will automatically redirect the email to your address that is on file with us.
-
Example: if your current email address is abc123@someipaddress.com, your En101 email will be re-directed to that address! It's that simple!
To check your email address listed with En101:
-
Login to your En101 Business Center.
-
Click Settings.
-
Click Update Address.
-
Make sure your regular email address is up to date.
That's it.
Enjoy!

Just a quick update...
But first, I want to say THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE!
I know many of you are working very hard, and are wanting to see this new "cutting edge" system I have been talking about.
And, I know I said it would be 10 days (give or take a few days).
Well, I must apologize... but only because it is taking so long ...
Because... It just keeps getting better and better and better and better (and this is the reason I still can't give a definite date)... it will soon be the best.
Like a bottle of fine wine... You shouldn't open it before its time.
Regards,
Richard

(((The title of
this blog can be found in Chapter 5. The lesson should have included
"a little, teeny-tiny, itsy-bitsy, wee-bit" late.)))
 I love developing new things. It's what drives me.
The reason I love it so much is because it's almost magical.
Things that were once just a thought, appear before your very eyes (of
course, only after a lot of research, development, troubleshooting, and
blood, sweat and tears).
I have been in 33 countries, and have met hundreds, if not thousands of
people over the past several years and have had conversations with
many, many people at all levels of English proficiency.
One day as I was sitting in a meeting in Asia with about 20 people, this new idea hit me.
You will see it soon.
Once again, I am sworn to secrecy, but I sincerely believe that
we have developed the simplest, most effective "language learning
system" on the planet.
This new age - the age of the Internet - demands new technologies, and new business systems, and we are on the cutting edge.
Having said all of that... We have always prided ourselves in
the fact that when we have given a date to launch a project, we have
always launched on "that day".
I cannot give a definite date of launching this new project,
but I will say this... our team is working fast and furious to launch
this new language learning system as soon as possible.
Within the next 10 days (give or take a few days), you will see the beginning of a new era in language education - and you can be a big part of it.
I am positive you will be impressed.
I will keep you updated!
All the best,
Richard

It's been a great week here at En101.
We have been busy enhancing the new website (from your suggestions), (and, of course, working on the "next big thing")!
We are looking forward to an even better week next week!
Thanks to all!

Ikviens, kas kādu laiku ir lietojis internetu, zina, cik daudz laika atņem un kā noskaņojumu sabojā nelūgtās vēstules – spami jeb mēstules.
Katru dienu mūsu darbinieki tērē ļoti daudz stundu, lai atšķirotu vajadzīgās vēstules no nevajadzīgajām. Un gadās, ka kāda mūsu klienta vai partnera sūtītā vēstule šajā jūklī paliek neievērota.

Mēs augstu vērtējam sadarbību ar Jums, un lūdzam atvainot par neērtībām un pārpratumiem, ja tādi rastos.

The power of language can really be powerful!
Below are some very special En101 members, Natalia Boyko (pictured on the left) with her Indonesian partners
Mudgio (center) and
Titi Nusantary (right).
Natalia is a professor of the Russian language for tour guide companies. Since more
and more Russian tourists love having their vacations in Indonesia, and domestic
guides needing to speak more Russian, En101 provides the perfect educational tools for the job.
