[ChrisBishop]

Hello and welcome from Hotel Chocolat please allow me to introduce myself, my name is Chris Bishop and I am the Online Marketing Manager at Hotel Chocolat and therefore manage all our affiliate marketing activity. In 1999 I was an affiliate myself and previously worked for the European's largest Affiliate Network so I aim to combine all the skills gained to provide a first class affiliate programme.

Our programme has been working in the UK and we have seen fantastic success, sales achieved are in the millions and we are looking to match this with our US scheme.

You could be one of the first to discover and advertise our exclusive brand of chocolate to the states. From boxed chocolates, gift selections and gourmet treats, to our renowned thick slabs of chocolate and the Purist range of single estate chocolate – if you’re looking for stunning gifts to promote, you’ll find them at our online store.

My team and myself are here to help so any questions or comments you have regarding our programme please feel free to ask, my full contact details are below and I am very happy to reach out over phone, email, MSN, Skype, LinkedIn or snail mail! - Also please do let me know if you would like some samples and I'll try my best to send some out - please email Affiliate Support and i'll be in touch for a lucky few!

Easter is just around the corner too – why not sneak a peek at our famously thick chocolate Easter eggs? You will receive further information on our Easter campaign shortly.
