NEWS RELEASE: The world’s first chain of personally curated, social shopping enabled online stores

MoreFrom.me is a groundbreaking e-commerce concept where anyone can personalise an online store, share it with their social network and earn commission on every sale.

The MoreFrom Group runs several websites including the award-winning MoreComputers.com On analysing customer behaviour, MoreFrom identified a particularly influential group who were recommending to their social network which products to buy and where to buy them.


MoreFrom set out to find a way to reward and encourage these important Facebook, Twitter and blog influencers. They created MoreFrom.me, which embodies this kind of social selling.

Brian Trevaskiss, Head of Marketing at the MoreFrom Group explains:"MoreFrom.Me combines the best marketing tool - (a recommendation from a family member or friend) with the power of social media.
It's an online presence individuals can personalise and curate, where they are compensated in a transparent and authentic way."


MoreFrom.me makes it easy for anyone to create a personalised online technology store. These influencers can curate from over 100,000 big brand and niche products, recommending them through their site and then through social networks. They can earn up to 13% commission for every sale they make.

Brian adds: "In targeting these groups we can increase our business revenues through viral networking by empowering a 'virtual' sales force. It makes for very effective marketing as these people have both access and credibility."



The MoreFrom.me model takes e-commerce and social selling to the next level. Brian identifies four key markets the service appeals to. "First are the technology enthusiasts, proud ‘geeks’ who people turn to for advice. A second group is made up of IT industry professionals who want a zero cost way to sell online. Third are non-profit organisations looking to raise funds, and lastly technology bloggers who can earn affiliate commission for sales of products they review."

Technology bloggers have embraced this idea in particular, Matthew Gibbons, creator of ‘All Things Android’ comments:"Our aim at All Things Android UK is to provide useful information that our readers can trust. If we recommend an Android device or an associated product, it’s because we’ve done our research and genuinely believe it’s a quality product".

"We created our online store All Things Tech UK as a natural progression from recommending products to being able to sell them. In one easy step readers can make a purchase based on what they’ve read. The very fact that they’re reading the blog in the first place means they trust what we’re saying and will invest in a product as a result."

Handy rechargeable USB batteries means it’s time to chuck out the chargers!


MoreFrom.me’s full of flash pieces of kit ranging from top of the range laptops to the latest LED TVs.

But sometimes, it’s worth noticing that good things really do come in small packages, especially a nifty product I’ve found very useful.



The Moixa USB Cell AA Rechargeable Batteries have proven to be a bit of a godsend in our gaff since we got our hands on these little beauties.

I’m a user of wireless mice and keyboards, and whilst in many ways they are spot on, they use up a hell of a lot of batteries. Batteries of course cost money, and rechargables are to be quite frankly honest a bit of a pain in the derriere.

Up until recently I’ve been using clunky chargers that take ages to boost batteries back to anywhere near an acceptable level of juice. Sometimes you even need to leave them on overnight, and carrying them around is just extra baggage.

However, these USB batteries just make life a little easier.


The premise is simple. Just plug these batteries into any USB port, and they will charge up in about 5 hours. Pop the top back on, put them in your device and they power it up. Sorted.

They’re great when on the move as there is no need for any cables, and I can finally cast off those blasted chargers.

Using them is going to save me money as I don’t have to keep shelling out on alkaline batteries, and also it will save energy that won’t be used up using chargers. That’s also good for the environment too.

Also, there’s no need to worry about losing the tops off them as they have a little cord that is attached to the barrel of the battery.

These are mightily handy things that I’m sure will come in useful in many situations. A must buy!

Discover the potential of MoreFrom.Me

Here's a link to morefrom.me/BrianTrevaskiss

I'd like you to see my MoreFrom.Me 'in action'. This will show you what it is and more importantly what you can do with it.

I've spoken to a lot of people in these first few weeks since we launched MoreFrom.Me and not surprisingly not everyone understands how it works. Some people haven't discovered it's full potential, I believe this is because there's nothing like it out there.
  • It's not an affiliate scheme
  • It's not a reward scheme
  • It's not a shop in a box
  • It's not a white label
  • It's not a review site
It's kind of all those things rolled into one!

I've been adding reviews and recommendations (for things I've personally bought) to my MoreFrom.Me and if you take a look, you'll see how it changes the whole site.


If you decide to buy anything I've recommended or indeed anything from my site, I'll earn commission. That's what happens with all MoreFrom.Me sites.

Lot's of people have set up a MoreFrom.Me and are earning good commision. Over the next few weeks I'll be introducing some of them to you, so you can see how they make the most of this new idea.

So, take a look at my MoreFrom.Me and if you decide you'd like one yourself go to www.MoreFrom.Me, it takes less than two minutes to set one up.

PS. If you do buy anything from my MoreFrom.Me I'll donate the commission to charity or somthing - I'm only using this as an example, not a money spinner for me!
