eil.com press release (May 2000)

New Site Launch Re-Invents On-Line Music Buying!!

On-Line shopping is here to stay and eil.com have already made their mark in the expanding world of music collectors . The launch of their improved website sees the UK based company dragging the music buyer into the next century.

Established in 1986 the company have grown to become a worldwide force with offices in the UK, Japan and the U.S. plus suppliers around Europe, North America & Australasia bringing together the most amazing catalogue of new, rare & collectable vinyl, compact discs and music memorabilia spanning six decades.
But even now they still haven't forgotten the reasons behind their success...
'When we sell a record or compact disc we're not just selling a piece of plastic or vinyl. It's memories, emotions and the excitement of discovery.'
These are the thoughts of CEO and co-founder of eil.com, Robert Croydon and his enthusiasm spreads throughout the team located around the world.

What brings over a quarter of a million visitors to eil.com every month?
With over 200,000 individual titles available there's definitely no shortage of choice and with hundreds of new arrivals daily there's always something new. Now the company have entered the highly aggressive market of chart product, and by selling the top CD albums at only £9.99 each, they are a popular choice in a competitive marketplace.

So what makes eil.com different from the hundreds of other on-line music retailers out there? We asked co-founder and director, Julian Thomas...
'We hire fellow music lovers in specialist areas for our sales & buying teams. We want our staff to be excited while at work and this attitude is welcomed by our customers. Where else can you purchase an original Elvis Presley poster from the 1960's alongside the latest release from Britney Spears? With our extensive product range it's no wonder people from around the world return time after time'.

The new design site has taken months of research and customer feedback has taken a major role in the redevelopment, although the company are always quick to act on market changes and advancements in technology. One of the most exciting additions is the introduction of the Chat Zone for music collectors worldwide. Bringing together a community of music lovers with similar interests, a place to ask questions, express opinions and exchange information on any music related issue.

Gradually merging the world known 'Esprit International Limited' name to the web friendly eil.com brand has been a purposely slow process with the aim not to confuse their already strong customer database of over 85,000. Marketing Manager, Simon Wright, expressed the thoughts of the company...
'It's taken over 14 years to build up our loyal customer base, so we're not going to discard the majority of them now due to the expansion of our web sales. During these exciting times we will continue to progress, our aim is to become the one stop music shop for the serious on-line shopper and the casual surfer. But for that personal touch we're always on the other end of the phone line.'

So it all seems set for eil.com world domination, why not check them out for yourselves...
