Dear Friends,

With mixed emotions I bring this news to you: Russian Legacy, Inc. operating the RussianLegacy.com website is no longer Geno's company. The company has been sold and the settlement took place less than 24 hours ago... The new owner lives just outside of Baltimore, MD, and the geographical location should definitely contribute positively to the company's future.

I will remain to be the Russian Legacy's affiliate manager for at least a year. Then we'll see...

Geno

Thank you for the congrats, popdawg.

One of the main factors that contributed to this (the decision to sell RL) was my decision to go full-time OPM.

Congrats Geno. It's just time to turn a page in the Book of Geno and this "page" looks promising for you.

[Rexanne]

Wow Geno. You ARE Russian Legacy - will be hard to imagine you no longer it's daddy but hell, move ON and enjoy the fact that you built a solid business that you could actually sell. :-) WTG!

I'm just happy you'll still be around as an OPM for RL and other programs

[Adam Ward]

I see him moving to MD within a year.

[MichaelColey]

Great! That frees you up for more OPM work. Can't wait to see what's in the pipeline!

I assume there will be no near-term changes to the Russian Legacy affiliate program?

I am happy for Geno's success.
Michael raised an important point which brings this question to my mind: will this shift affect website links at all?

Probably not, Adam. I wonder, however, why you should think so...

Rest assured, Michael, that everything will be as comfortable as before.

Nope. We'll still be at ShareASale. I will still be managing the program. In a month or so some products (about 5% of the total number) may go off the website, but the thumbs will never change to broken links and you will know about any such changes well in advance.

congrats Geno!!!! pleased everything to go as you wish

[loxly]

Sounds like a positive move for you Geno Don't move to Baltimore!!! Once you visit Vegas in January you will want to live HERE

[webworker]

Wow Geno. You ARE Russian Legacy - will be hard to imagine you no longer it's daddy

Echo that Geno my friend, RL is so...so...so, so Russian! Half the charm is having my comrade Evgenii at the helm, but if it's still the same beautiful stuff and you've still got your hand in it, it's all copascetic.

but hell, move ON and enjoy the fact that you built a solid business that you could actually sell. :-) WTG!

Rexanne, you are so positive it's a JOY! Gotta start hanging around with you to catch some of those good vibes!

The new owner wasn't planning on changing anything around. From what I understand, he will keep the same inventory, same suppliers, same pricing... So yeah! Keep on selling that Russian stuff. Trust me, sales are going to boom starting from around mid-October (and all the way through the end of December).

Rexanne is great. She is such an encouragement! It was a blessing meeting her in person in L.A. this past Spring, and I am very much looking forward to meeting her again in Vegas... BTW, webworker, Rexanne, missdonna and other L.A. people, I will be spending some time in L.A. before the Summit and after it. It'd be good to pay a visit to that old friend of ours in an ugly looking (from the outside at least), but deliciously cooking Russian restaurant.
