Dear Kitbag affiliate,

It’s back into the Champions League this week, with several very interesting ties poised to make heros (or villains) out of some high profile players (who would bet on David Beckham not scoring a free kick at Old Trafford tonight for AC Milan, for example)!

So, we’ve decided to add a great special offer on Kitbag …… all shirts in our specially prepared Champions League category will receive free shirt printing (worth £11.95) - with hero shirt printing and personalised name printing also included. This great offer includes Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea, Barcelona, Real Madrid and AC Milan shirts !!!

The printing price is automatically taken of the product price as it’s added to basket. This is in addition to the superb discounts already in place (some shirts are up to 33% off). This fantastic offer ends at 9am on Thursday 11th March 2010.

Looking further afield, we have also just added lots of new Nike, Adidas and Puma national kits. These new kits will be worn by the teams in the 2010 World Cup, and are already selling extremely well on Kitbag.com. More details on these new kits are available in each of the following Kitbag affiliate blog posts (click here to have these new updates emailed directly to you as they are added):

New 2010 World Cup kits available for Brazil, Portugal, France, Holland, USA, South Korea, Serbia, Australia, Slovenia, New Zealand, Croatia, Turkey & Poland!

Leaving Kitbag …

Just to expand on the last one on the list, I’m leaving Kitbag towards the end of March (final date yet to be decided). I would like to personally thank each and every affiliate that has promoted Kitbag in the past 2½ years ……… but there are literally thousands of you, and so I’m doing it by email now!

All joking aside, it’s been a pleasure working with such a wide variety of interesting affiliates, and I’ve learnt a lot about this great industry during my time at Kitbag. In terms of Kitbag.com and it’s affiliate programme, it will continue to be a very important part of the Kitbag marketing mix and will continue to receive as much enthusiasm and drive as it’s always done. New contact details and info will be communicated nearer the time with regards my replacement etc.

Kind regards
