We have some very exciting news regarding the completion of Phase 1 of our website. This will be a lengthy email with a lot of information in it regarding our operations and how we are moving forward.
First let me explain the 2 Phases of the business.
Phase 1
Developmental stage including checking out market interest. In this phase we iron out all bugs on the site, build and tweak the platform to allow for massive membership funding and inventory allocation of such funds. This is the most trying of phases and one we are very happy to be almost completely done with.
Phase 2
Full out marketing campaign where we gather some of the most influential internet marketers out there to join in the promotions of our opportunity. At this phase we are now building enhancements instead of fixing problems and bugs.
THE GOOD NEWS.
Technology & Deadline:
We currently have 2 dedicated teams on a "35 Day" Deadline (Approximately mid September) to complete ALL of our project tasks, including but not limited to 2 very strategic product allocation frameworks to member accounts where one wraps our full membership continually and the primary fills directly in order of date of position. Admin staff will have in place editing on all features and functions of the site to maintain the fastest possible processing. These tools are bar none the most impressive advancements for our processing performance.
Let us make this clear. We have hired 30 additional programmers in addition to our 2 in house programmers to "independently" finish off this project so that we can allocate inventory to your accounts. One, or the other, or both will be completed within this timeline. Our own in house programmers have made tremendous progress in just the last week, and in fact are very close to finishing all the site requirements to allocate inventory bug free. The other 30 programmers offshore are working at building the whole system from scratch to finish inside of 35 days, and it looks like they will meet the deadline with ease based on their progress thus far.
In lieu of this decision, we have decided to make some changes that will allow us to complete Phase 1 and 2 simultaneously, so we are going to temporarily shut off the payment buttons to fund accounts.
By doing this we can now focus on nothing but our existing inventory.
When members fund their account, we are obligated to purchase acquisitions on their behalf. So by turning off the funding button temporarily, we can now temporarily stop with acquisitions and focus our entire team completely on the systems and existing inventory.
Up until this time we did not do this because we knew we needed as diverse of an inventory as possible to allow all members to get equitable shares of inventory.
Now that we have the most diverse second hand inventory in all of North America, (and certainly one of the largest too) we can now turn off the funding button while we complete the final phases of the site. This will allow us to exclusively concentrate on the following 2 tasks.
1. Completing the back office of the site with member allocation of inventory, the charities features, and the withdrawal processes for you.
2. Sales.
We have enough inventory to do hundreds of thousands of dollars in sales a month, and will now devote our time and staff into perfecting the sales systems.
We have been selling lots of inventory, but in order to keep up with the incoming inventory, we need to be able to ramp up our sales to higher numbers than the company has ever done before.
Shopping Cart : We have included Shopping Cart functionality to our product detail pages to increase Sales and convenience for our customers.
Legal Info:
We made arrangements to sit down with the BCSC (British Columbia Securities Commission) and discuss our forward intentions and options.
We are pleased to have their very positive support, guidance and suggestions. In addition we retained a US/Canadian Securities Legal Firm to provide advice and solutions. Collectively we have all agreed that an Offering Memorandum (OM) is the best solution for keeping our current structure intact and providing our members with transparent disclosure of our Business Plan, Audited Financials and Future Projections among other relevant info. The (OM) will be posted openly on our Home Page and other relevant placement so Members can Download conveniently. The timeline to complete the OM is approximately 2 weeks. We are pressing Accounting for a timeline on 2 years worth of Audited Financials and we believe the whole
process to be approximately $60,000 which we have safely covered. We also have a Registration processing in the UK through our Partnership based in the Isle of Man (IOM). Clearly we are covering all bases here to Secure our Members and Corporate Interests.
There is no change in the ability to refer other members and you are welcome and encouraged to continue referring. These members will remain informed of activity and timeline when we will open the doors to allow them to fund their accounts. This is considered a Beta Launch process and we will be in Full Launch very shortly.
MEMBER TOURS:
Please be advised that we Welcome ALL Members to Walk, Drive or Fly in to visit us and see our operation from the inside out. We will gladly walk you through our multiple holding facilities loaded with diverse and exciting inventory. You will be able to meet and talk with all staff to learn what they contribute daily, and you will get to sit and view our internal admin features to see how our processing works and view the image files of literally millions of items forthcoming.
Our address is
5728 175 St
Surrey, BC
Canada.
Webinar & Podcasts:
We will continue to publish Podcasts approximately every 2 weeks with video of relevant info at that time. With mass requests, we are now also getting prepared to re-engage our Live Webinar, which will have pre-arranged focuses, and believe we may stagger these with the Podcasts every 2nd week or 1 2 hour primary per month.
Please be patient as we determine the technology and structure to the webinars, as we will be looking for the most suitable platform to host these so they may not come back for a bit, but they are coming back.
Forums:
We currently have a Forum with close to 900 members and is Live at
http://forums.affordableaffiliates.com.
We will be including a Direct link from our website now that we have assistance from a few of our Dedicated Members. Our Staff would like to personally thank Mimi Booth (Moderator) and Jen Maxwell for their continued support along with many other valued and contributing members.
Please Note : We do not tolerate abusive conduct and such will be moderated.
This is an open source for quality communications regarding AAN. Enjoy!
Post from our AAN Forum : Dear Mimi, It was a sincere pleasure to give you the full tour of our facilities, and be able to introduce you to the staff to see what each person contributes daily. It is important for Members to hear from other Members like you, Mimi, with honest on-site reviews, and we welcome all of our Members to walk/drive/fly in and meet us in person, take a tour and experience what we do. Inside of about an hour, we will open up a whole new world of understanding and forward intentions. Everyone that has visited us so far has been overwhelmed as we are much larger, more diverse and committed than most people can reasonably assume. After Mimi's visit, we had member #3253 Eileen Ford from Chilliwack, BC drive in with her husband to take a tour and we look forward to their reviews as well. We not only show you the assets on hand in multiple facilities but we give you an in depth explanation of our processes both offline and online. Once again, Thank You Mimi for all you do. You are so very special.
We are rounding the final corner and the excitement here at the office is vibrational. There is a universal feeling here that all is coming together like a well oiled machine.
This was a collectively made decision between upper management and all staff to speed up the final processes required to bring this project full circle.
Now, it is important for you to know that there is no need for you to stop referring.
All your referrals will join at the free level, and when all systems are go, we will allocate accounts and turn on the fund buttons again.
This transition process will prove to convert your downline referred people even better than before, and you should know that after 11,000 members we can tell you that we have the best converting website online for a free signup process. This is not a guess or an assumption. We did the research and our business model brought in more than double the conversions on the highest converting site online that is recorded.
So this decision to remove the payment buttons until we finish with allocation is in the best interest of funded and non- funded members that are actively referring as it will allow us to move forward faster.
We are taking all steps to OVER deliver when the final product is ready.
We will also be ready next time no matter how many people fund their accounts, so when we go live again, you can rest assured that all facets of this business model are running like a well oiled machine.
We will accept nothing less on your behalf.
We have excellent staff with high standards and tremendous morals to help create a globally significant company that will impact hundreds of thousands of people around the world, and charities across the globe.
Can you feel the excitement that we do?
Continue referring, because when we turn the fund button back on, you will see a conversion process of your refferals even better than what you have already seen.
Until the next update,
To Your Success,

This was one of the things we were going to do at the end of Phase 2, but things went so well in our meetings with the BCSC that we have decided that we can complete Phase 1 and 2 at the same time.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Member Funding : 24 hours following this email (approximately 6pm PST on August 19th) we will be Turning our Payment Processors "OFF" for Member Funding while in the process of completing our (OM) and finalizing our current technology deadline. This is a TEMPORARY position to allow us to become Securities Compliant and finish the Product Allocation to members accounts.

When the inventory assignment is complete, and the rest of the features added, we will be adding our direct phone numbers to each and every one of our staff here so that you can call us directly with questions and concerns. We have a toll free number with all of our extensions and we have not posted it up to this point because we knew we would be inundated with phone calls all asking us the same question.
When will this be ready?
When you see our phone numbers and the payment buttons back, and your inventory in the back office, you will know the answer to that question.
