This time, I'll tell you a really curious fact that you can test by youself: If you Google "Enigin" you get dozens of entries, like http://www.enigin.com/, http://www.enigin.net/, http://www.enigin-wrigley.org/, http://www.learningcapacities.com/2009/06/18/enigin-partner/, http://www.enigindigital.com/, http://enigin.typepad.com/, http://www.enigin.me/, http://www.enigin.co.uk/, http://www.enigindesign.com/, http://www.ipodderx.com/Enigin_PLC_Pod_Review_Ian_Wrigley/, http://www.eniginresearch.com/, http://www.searchenigin.com/, http://twitter.com/#!/enigin, http://www.theenigin.com/, http://www.eniginmoney.com/ among others. 

All of them contain similar information about Enigin's business proposal. Why this? Can you guess why they own so many sites without apparent need of? The result is that, if you Google the word "Enigin", you'll find pages and pages of well positioned results containing repeated Enigin's published information about themselves...Therefore, if you're looking for independent comments about Enigin, you'll  very unlikely  find them, being them positioned on a very far and hidden position...

Now, let's imagine that you wish to find in the Internet any possible negative comment about Enigin's business proposal and you  Google "Enigin scam". What are the results? Believe it or not, you'll get MANY Enigin's sites: http://enigin.net/enigin-scam-busters.php, http://enigin.net/enigin-scam-busters.php, http://www.enigindigital.com/enigin-scam-busters/, http://www.enigin-wrigley.org/enigin-scam-busters/, http://enigin.co.uk/about/enigin-scam-busters, http://enigin.co.uk/about/enigin-scam-busters, http://www.enigindesign.com/enigin-plc-quality-design-helps-to-differentiate-from-scam-products/http://www.enigindesign.com/enigin-plc-quality-design-helps-to-differentiate-from-scam-products/, http://www.unoseis.com/enigin-scam/, http://eniginscambusters.net/ and many more...

Now my question is: Why does Enigin invest such a big effort in opening dozens of sites containing always the same corporate information, all of them very finely well positioned? Why does Enigin also invest a big effort in creating sites that appears if you Google "Enigin scam", containing bizarre texts about energy saving activities in which the words "scam" and "Scam busters" appear repeteadly (which help the site go up in Google's position for the keyword "Enigin Scam" and its variaints)?

I look forward to read some answers. More to come...

I consider that the license is not worth the 20.000+ Sterling that I was charged for. The main reasons are:

-      Among other claims, Enigin License's salesmen mention a “Licensing Opportunity”offering "a unique and exceptional combination of products and services".

I can say, without doubt, that the above claim is untrue. They are offering a series of products with a small attractive for most energy consumers:

-        The Eniscope is overprized (they expect their distributors to sell it above 4.000 US Dollars to the end user,  but anyone can find such kind of smart meters in the market at much lower prices. Also, they don’t mention that the user must pay a monthly fee for the Eniscope to log the data in their server. Also, in a typical installation, it’s very unlikely to save between a 10% and 20% of the energy consumption, as they claim insistently. (Obviously, in some exeptional cases, eventually a high saving can be achieved).

-        The CUES will only work in open, vertical refrigerators. The price (and the profit margin involved) of the CUES won’t  tipically cover the costs of selling it to a small or medium store, and an Enigin Distributor won’t have easy access to sell it to big stores (during the Mindshare training we are being discouraged to approach big companies).

-        LESS is barely profitable for retrofit installations: the savings won’t pay back the cost of the units plus installations in years. For new installations, building companies buy from general lighting suppliers, not from small energy saving companies.

-        Led lighting is a concept now entering very strong in the market, as everybody knows. But the product range that they offer is very small and overpriced. Also, in general lighting products are being purchased from general lighting suppliers, not from small energy saving companies.

-        Finally iMEC, these products are to be sold by engineering companies that also offer other highly sophisticated energy saving devices and applications.

I consider that their Business Appraisal gives a wrong information of what the small entrepreneur can reach by purchasing a Distributorship License and therefore, Ithink that their business proposal is misleading. Therefore, I advise anyone considering to invest in this "business opportunity" to first get in touch with me. I can save you a lot of money and time.  More to follow.

I'm a 57 years old businessman, living in Barcelona. I own my own successful business and I'm happily married, with 4 daughters and a big family.

 Therefore, I can't complain about my lifestyle. More than that, I feel very happy with it.

The reason for spending some time in creating this blog is my social responsibility. Let me explain: I bought an Enigin Distributorship License back in 2009, I followed the training in January 2010 and after that, I found that Enigin's proposal is not realistic and makes a very high percentage of failure rate among its customers.

I know that nobody likes to talk about thier failures (and maybe this is one of the reasons for not finding much information in the web), but I think that I MUST inform to would-be buyers of Enigin's Distributorship's Licenses what they will very probably find afterwards.

Soon, I'll start explaining my personal experience.

I'm letting to get comments in this blog, as it's not a pamphlet at all, so I feel absolutely open to exchange opinions with anybody who wishes to do so. I just wish to avoid nice entrepreneur people throwing away their money and time into a business proposal that does not work in most cases. 

If I didn't had the experience and success that I've proven during my life as an antrepreneur, anybody (especially Enigin's directors) could say: well, the fact that you failed doesn't mean that our proposal is meaningless...but that's not the case. I've been (and still I am) for more than 30 years in business and I think that my opinions are valuable for anyone...And I won't make any money out of this, so I have no hidden interests.


Soon I will give everybody more detailed information.
