ENIGIN and BEST ENERGY SAVING

I keep receiving messages from persons who claim to be victims of Mr. Ian Wrigley (I received the last one earlier this week). ENIGIN has changed its name and is now being called "BEST Energy Saving". But the products they offer look exactly the same as they were offering under their Enigin brand name. 

When a company builds a popular brand name (and if you Google ENIGIN you'll see how many entries you get) you don't change your name...unless you need to hide any dark spot of your past...

Therefore, I suspect that Mr. Wrigey is just trying to keep his "business" running in spite of more and more unhappy "distributors" telling their bad experience around the world.

I remind my readers that this blog is absolutely altruistic and intended to help other people avoid wasting their time and money as I did with Mr. Wrigley's "business opportunity" called then Enigin and now BEST.

I'm a successful and honest Spanish businessman, I have no economic interests with or against Mr. Wrigley, I'm not in the energy efficiency business.

The photos that illlustrate this post were taken in July 2015, during my annual one week cruising (this year it was around Menorca-Balearic Islands) in my small sailing boat, with some of my family members. We had a great time toghether.

My best wishes to everyone!!

One of the statements in www.enigin.net: Mr Sanchez claims his forum was created to satisfy his “social responsibility”…

Yes, my forum was created to satisfy my “social responsibility”, a concept that is probably out of your understanding. After I found out the deception of your business proposal, I initially asked you to return my money back but at some point, I decided that claiming my 20.000+ Pounds “investment” money back from your hands would be incompatible with alerting entrepreneurs against your practices, as you could eventually pledge that I was blackmailing you. Therefore, I decided to drop my money claim anymore and instead, try to warn other entrepreneurs against your proposed business model, which I consider a scam after having seen your inside operation. Probably, that decision (dropping any money claims against Mr.Ian Wrigley) is what better helps me achieve my goal, as people approaching me know that there’s no personal interest at all behind my informative posts: I don’t sell any competitor product, I don’t expect anymore to get my money back, I run a successful company (I’m wealthy enough to enjoy a nice lifestyle), I’m a happy person…but I’m pity for so many entrepreneurs (many from third world countries) that spend their money and time in trying to grow a new business and get caught in your claws.

Yes, Mr.Wrigley, I got your "modus operandi". My wish is that you don’t fool more people anymore.

Amazing

It's amazing:I published a post about an hour ago. Now, I see that I got 30 pageviews in such a short time. I can't understand it, because I think that my blog may only be of interest to entrepreneurs considering to make business with Enigin (now "The Best Group"). Why do I get 30 pageviews within just one hour? Are Enigin's guys tracking my posts? Are they scared about their practices?

News from Enigin (now, the "Best Group")

Today, I have some new comments about Ian Wrigley's "business". Every few months, I take a look at my blog and Enigin's practices (not more often, as I'm quite busy running my business).

Last week, I found the URL http://www.enigin.net    with interesting information.

But before going ahead, I just summarize what my blog is all about:

-  I bought an Enigin Distributorship License back in 2009, I followed the training in January 2010 and then, I found that Enigin's proposal is not realistic and provokes a very high percentage of failure rate among its customers.

- Once I realized that it clearly looked as a clear case of ripoff, I asked them to return my money back. They obviously didn't do it and instead, they said that "I was the problem" for not being able to implement their business model.

- At some point, I concluded that the best I could do as a honest person, wouldn't be any more to try recovering my money back but trying instead to avoid other honest entrepeneurs to bury their money in this ripoff scheme. If I would still try to recover my money, Enigin's Directors would then have an excuse to say that I was "blackmailing" them. But thanks God, I have money enough to drop any money claims and concentrate in trying to avoid other honest entrepreneurs from being cheated.

Now I come back to the www.enigin.net post. I'll copy their claims (Home Page has been prepared and approved by the Board Of Directors” followed by my comments (I recommend you to first read their home page):

"Clearly explain the company’s radical change in focus and the reasons for it."

Why should Enigin do a "radical change" if their business model was fine? My opinion: They are scared about being sued by many "licensees" like myself and many others. Also, they are being hurt by so many complaints from former licensees

Explain why Enigin would appear to have more negative listings compared to the average company search, and why the world’s (Forbes surveyed) most respected companies have considerably more, indeed some have hundreds, of rip-off reports against their name. No comment.

Why did Enigin do a U-Turn on a profitable Biz-Op model? My comment: Why did they do a “U-Turn” if their business proposal was realistic and honest? In my opinion, they are trying to survive to the many claims they are getting from around the world.

While there has been some issues from a handful of people resulting from the former ‘Biz-Op’ model, notwithstanding this it should be noted we do have many, MANY, successful distributors and delighted customers both in the UK. As I already mentioned in previous posts, I offered them to stop my claims if they could prove to me that they had even just ONE successful licensee in Spain. NO WAY!

Next time, I'll comment on their other statements. They even mention my person and my comments! Should they be concerned about a humble Spanish businessman if their business proposal was honest?

Kind regards to all the persons that, thanks to this information, are dodging Enigin's "business proposal".

Feedback

I often receive messages from my blog readers. I can classify them in two groups: those who are considering buying an Enigin "License" and those who already bought it.

All and every message coming from the second group (those who already bought an Enigin license) claim that their business never took off. In other words, they miserably lost their investment. I just transmit my pity to them, as I suffered the same failure by trying to start the Enigin business model.

I hope that I'm saving a failure to the other group -the ones that still didn't sign up with Enigin. They are mainly from non "first world" countries: Peru, Philipines, Africa...

As I have alreay mentioned, my only wish with my blog is to explain my experience with Enigin and thus avoid others losing miserably their time and money as I did. I'm not asking Enigin anymore for my money back, as I could be considered as an interested part when I express my opinions. I prefer to lose any opportunity to recover my money if I can help other entrepreneurs saving the odissey of what I consider the Enigin scam.

I write my posts in my scarce free time, as my own business takes most of my time. Fortunately, the Spanish economy is finally starting to level up: my company increased revenues 12% in 2013 to around 3,5 Million Euro and during January and February, we grew another 16%. I say this because Enigin's position when you'll fail with them is "you probably hadn't what it takes to build and grow a company". As I said in my first post, I'm a successful businessman and I refuse Enigin's position. The failure is basically due to the "wrong" (or misleading?) Enigin's business model offered in their "Business Appraisal", not the entrepreneurs ability.

My advice is: Stay away from Enigin, if you wish to keep your savings!

NB I'm now starting a new business project with a company in Cornwall, but I'm pretty sure that this time, my British partner is bringing a serious and honest business opportunity. I say this to confimrm my overall experience with British business partners is quite positive, opposed to the Enigin's case.

Just an example

In my post dated 10th March 2012, I mentioned that Enigin said that you would sell the Eniscope above USD 4.000 per unit (in their business appraisal, they fundament the big profits that you'll make are based on the assumption of selling “x” units per month at such USD 4.000+ price...and the business looks promising). I already said that their business model doesn't work but on top of it, anyone can get most of the promised benefits of installing a 4.000+ USD Eniscope by installing instead, for example, an "EngageHub Kit three-phase" from the company Efergy...at a 74,95 Sterling retail price (around 120 USD). By the way, in 2012 Enigin were very careful not to mention that each Eniscope had to pay (on top of its extremely high price) an annual fee for the "server use" (without it, you don't have access to historical data analysis). I only learned about the fee at the end of the training course. As you can imagine, the "server use" is free of charge for the Efergy online energy monitors.

I'm using an Efergy single phase at home with very good results and now I'll install a three phase version in the main offices of my own company.

I don't need to say that I have no relation with the guys at Efergy, I'm not offering their products nor getting any commissions from them and this blog is absolutely altruist, with the hope of avoiding more entrepreneurs committing the same mistake that I made by believing Enigin's claims about their proposed business model (what they call their "business appraisal").

I wish you all of you a fruitful New Year 2014, free of wrong business decisions!!

PS If you are a successful Enigin's Licensee in Spain, please let me know (I still didn't find any one).

"The Ripoff Report" Do you know this web site? Any one who considers to have been ripped off can post his story. 

If you'd like to see what others said about Enigin, you can click here, and you'll learn what other persons think about the Enigin "business". It looks like I'm not the only one who felt being ripped of and, in spite of Enigin's efforts to hide any negative information in the Internet about their activities, there are some places where anyone can see testimonials of Enigin's Licensees.
