That’s the golden number, right?
I was thinking about a progress bar, like a church roof fund or sommat 😉
Re: 5000!
Its a good idea GB. It would be interesting to know just how many ISE are being sold countrywide and what sort of an impact we are making. Incidentaly does anyone know approx how many washers are sold in GB annually. Whatever it is, THAT is the number we should be aiming for.

Re: 5000!
Like I don’t have enough to do GB! 😉 🙄
I can tell you that there’s about 150-200 sold from memory as I’ve not been keeping a count in all honesty but quite afew of the guys are finding the 5×5 pack a VERY easy sell to customers and that is how the vast majority of them are sold.
Mention has been made of some people pointing the customer to UKW andlooking at the same machine with the same package, then flogging it £50 cheaper, customer thinks they’ve gotten a superb bargain. 😉
Others have told their customer to go looking for a better deal, invariably they come back for an ISE with the full warranty!
There are approximately 1.4 million washers/washer dryers sold in the UK every year. Many of them replacing Indesit and Servis’! 😆

Re: 5000!
Hi David
Giving an exact number is difficult because we need to seporate machines supplied to yourselves from machines sold to consumers which is dependant on receiving registration cards.
The 5000 or the (20 per day run rate) is an aspiration as it allows to to make any modifications we like to the machine going forward, the business is viable at a fraction of that less than (900 per year). The current average run rate of 4/5 machines per day is climbing all the time for example this week we have had orders for over 20 machines and had three websales so the whole situation is thanks to everyones efforts looks very healthy.
What I can say is that when I started, we built a business plan which we work to religiously to make sure the ISE business is and remains on a stable financial footing. Every month we have exceeded our sales target and been below our cost prediction (mainly due to a better than anticipated failure rates)
Please keep pushing the machine as the next six months sees the warchest we have have generated be investing in marketing activity to put the product in the public eye which will make your ability to sell them much better.
Sorry this is a long winded answer to a simple question,
Cheers
John
