Finally got round to entering. Must win. Need chocolate.

Went to my first Hotel Chocolat shop a couple of weeks ago in York. I bought my wife a tin of the Turkish Delight. She said it was the best she had ever eaten.

I have to take her word for it as I didn't get a look in!

the shop in the arndale center in manchester looks brilliant inside (the interior and the stock )

Wooo Over the moon! Fab stuff!


Mmm the shop in the arndale is lovely. If I had to work in a real shop I think it'd have to be there.

Like I don't eat enough chocolate as it is...

But then again you can never eat too much chocolate and, if I really wanted to, I could always give it away... not!

Hi all

Was really caught up at the end of last week. I will pick winners for the oustanding days from last week which put up the skyscraper banner.

And post Monday morning with tasks to take-away one of our Easter eggs..

Thanks

Chris

Ps. Those that have already won will be receiving their Eggs either Monday or Tuesday - lucky lucky

Sorry all, I'm actually off sick today - but here is the last few days tasks to receive a gorgeous Hotel Chocolat Easter egg...

Monday - Thursday's Task

Easter Last orders....

The task is simply to replace or add our last orders banners onto your site to promote our extended delivery dates for Easter. Also feel free to add our supportive copy on your page or email - this really will improve conversion rates.

A range of these are available on the CJ system, all deeplinking into the Easter range...

I'll be announcing the outstanding winners from last week in a minute (when my VPN works!) and then daily announce from today until Thursday...

Good luck to all.

Just as an FYI - Today's sales are looking fasntastic - I've just seen a £400 affiliate sale come in all for Easter, and that isn't the highest today - if you do want to make some money over the Easter period - add our last orders links to your page, email etc - we do convert and you will receive ultra high commissions!

Thanks, Chris

Thanks Chris, Hotel Chocolat and CJ

[ChrisBishop]

Not a problem guys...

Just capture how happy you feel at the minute and when the Hotel Chocolat box arrives - that what you all as affiliates provide our business (albeit the 3rd party). Via all your links whether they be PPC, content our loyalty you provide our gifting solution to make peoples' days and weeks.

The more you can replicate that feeling and emotion on your sites the more and more you will find people will buy via your site - it's about the whole experience - the joy of finding the gift solution and knowing the recipent will recieve that real "WoW" factor when the parcel is opened.

Good luck for the last few days - today will be our highest sales day so far in the campaign, so ensure you push hard tonight to capture and also make Tuesday a high day - users clearly trust our delivery service to order on the late days to please make the most of it on your sites.
