Hello everyone.

I really just wanted to let you know what we're doing at Virgin Wines with our affiliate programmes.

I've just taken over the management of our Buy.At, TradeDoubler and OMG accounts and the first thing I want to do is get some serious housekeeping done!

A lot of our offers and banners have been out of date for a while. Which might have put you off using us.

From now on, whether you're with Buy.At, TradeDoubler or OMG, you'll have access to our latest promotions.

If you're on Buy.At or TradeDoubler it couldn't be simpler. Just pick from 6 differently sized banners and sit back! The creative and URL will be updated every fortnight meaning your ad won't become stale.

For those of you using OMG you'll have a choice of either sticking with one of our strongest offers as a static option or choosing one of the rotating banners. Again, the rotating banners will be kept upto date with our latest offer or promotion every 2 weeks.

We'll be keeping the fantastic case offers as well as bringing in some exciting new promotions such as 'Happy Hour' and 'Name Your Price'. Our case offers are 6 Free, Free Delivery and Half Price. These are superb offers, list prices are usually around the £100 mark and the sale price is always £49.99, plus p&p. We'll also be featuring our new Fairtrade range soon.

Next week we're kicking off with our 'Change 4 Lives' initiative. 'Change 4 Lives' is all about sparing a tenner to help 4 fantastic winemakers set up their own business, and then doubling your money once the new wine comes in!

I hope the new programme will encourage a lot more of you to come and give Virgin Wines a go. What we're trying to do is keep everything fresh and exciting for you - I hope it works.

If anyone has any comments or ideas you'd like to share with me please don't be shy.

Have a good weekend.
