Hi Everyone!
We would like to say a HUGE thank you to those of you who participated in our first Affiliate Promotion. It was a great success and we sent out so many prizes. That was the first promotion of many more to come. If you have any ideas of what would motivate YOU to increase your sales we would love to hear from you; we are always open to suggestions and comments. You can email me at affiliateteam@worldwidebrands.com. I look forward to your thoughts.
Well, the holidays have come and gone; and now it's the time when New Year Resolutions are being made.
Worldwide Brands' CEO, Chris Malta has created a special audio entitled, "Top 5 New Year's Resolutions for Product Sourcing".
Below I have copied an email that we have created. You are welcome to use a modified version for your own email out. The links will be the same, but you will need to replace the XXXXX with your affiliate ID.
We have also created a special banner for this promotion which is available to you to use; it is to the top right of this article.

"Top 5 New Year's Resolutions for Product Sourcing" email:
***********************************************************************************
First Name,
The New Year is upon us.
Every year at this time, people all
around the world make New Year's
resolutions.
Worldwide Brands has created a special
'New Year's Resolution Audio' for you.
It's called...
"Top 5 New Year's Resolutions for Product Sourcing"
Here's the link:
http://www.worldwidebrands.com/wwb/2008_NewYearResolutions.asp?kbid=XXXX
Now, the main problem with most resolutions
is they are quickly forgotten. Whether it's
losing weight, quitting smoking, or starting
a new business, most resolutions are not
followed through with.
What's the big difference between those
who accomplish their resolutions and reach
their goals and those who don't?
ACTION.
You must take immediate and swift action
as soon as you make a resolution.
So what about you? Will you take action?
Will 2008 be your big breakthrough year?
I hope so. And I want to do something
'BIG' to help you reach all of your business
goals this year.
If you take action today by listening to
the audio and getting your lifetime
membership to OneSource today, you'll get
a special bonus video called...
"Importing From China"
http://www.worldwidebrands.com/?kbid=XXXXX
Importing is a huge multi-billion dollar
market and if you know how to take advantage
of it, your profit margins could soar.
Plus, you'll be able to market unique products
from different countries that aren't readily
available to your competitors.
It gives you a huge unfair advantage.
Recently, we spent thousands of dollars to
fly to China and get an 'insider's viewpoint'
of the import/export business.
It was eye-opening.
This on-location video will be available to
OneSource members just for the month of January.
We're going to expand on the video and turn
it into a full-blown course in the future, but
right now, it'll be available for you to see
in the member's area until January 31st.
So, if you're already a member of OneSource,
log-in and check it out. And if you're not
a member, take action right now and join
OneSource today.

Start the new year off right. Get your
wholesale product suppliers lined up. 2008
is going to be a great year for eCommerce
business.
Forrester Research states that online sales
will reach an estimated $229.9 Billion dollars
in 2008.
It's time to get your share. Make sure you take
advantage of this opportunity.

Best Wishes for 2008!
Your Name
P.S. - Please keep in mind that the import/export
suppliers you can use to get going immediately
are right inside of OneSource. Log-in today and
check them out.

A W9 form needs to be completed each year with your latest information. Now that it is the beginning of January, we have started to notify those of you who need to submit a W9. Commission checks will be held until W9s have been received. Please check your email. If you have not already done so, please send your W9 in as soon as possible. You can fax to 407-478-8152.

International Affiliates - Submit W8 Forms |
| US federal law requires that we have a W8BEN form on file for all international affiliates (those residing outside of the United States) earning commissions. International affiliates will not receive their commission checks unless a W8BEN has been submitted. Emails have already been sent out to individuals whose commissions are impacted. Please make sure to submit these forms as soon as possible. Thank you to everyone who already has submitted their W8BEN. If you would like the W8BEN form again, then please email me.

Marketing Quick Tips |
Video Blogging
Video has recently become a huge part of Web 2.0, so why not market your products via video?
According to Wikkapedia Video blogging, "sometimes shortened to vlogging, is a form of blogging for which the medium is video. Entries are made regularly and often combine embedded video or a video link with supporting text, images, and other metadata. Video logs (vlogs) also often take advantage of web syndication to allow for the distribution of video over the Internet using either the RSS or Atom syndication formats, for automatic aggregation and playback on mobile devices and personal computers."
I found a great resource for you on how to do video blogging, I hope it is useful to you. Visit FreeVlog and watch their vlogs on the How-To of Video Blogging.
