- ...is one of Britain’s highest profile female entrepreneurs. Having started her working life as an office junior, at the age of 24 she created the market leading experiences brand Red Letter Days on a shoestring budget from the front room of her home. Red Letter Days went on to generate over £100million in turnover in the 16 years that she ran it, and in doing so pioneered the UK's £250 million experiences sector. This earned her an Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year award in 2002, as well as being short listed for the 2001 Veuve Clicquot Businesswoman of the Year award. In early 2005, Rachel shot to fame as one of the original Dragons in BBCTV's BAFTA nominated cult business show Dragons’ Den. After the well-publicised crash of Red Letter Days in 2005, Rachel became heavily involved in the Small Business Sector and recently won the IAB 'UK Champion of Entrepreneurship' award for 2008. Her unique Entrepreneurial Profiling Test was launched in 2007 and you can take the test free by visiting www.rachelelnaugh.com.

What is 'The Vault' ? Is this something that is covered on the Marketing Magicians DVD ?
Rachel, what is Mark's story? Was he in the skip hire business before producing that website?
"The Vault" is a naughty place for hackers where they download free versions of paid-for internet marketing stuff. It is most definitely NOT covered in the Marketing Magicians DVD :-)
I was not in the skip business before topskips.com - I was in the marketing business, and have been involved in internet marketing in some form or another since 1998. Get my free DVD for more info at www.markattwood.com.

Yea, FREE is the most lucrative keyword on the Net. For obvious reasons. Kind of hard to stop the FREE mentality short of stealing products that have to be paid for.
In the computer games industry we had a hell of a job preventing code leakages. I saw a lot of the really serious stuff when i was a member of the anti-piracy unit at ELSPA.
Kind of sick that you spend a lot of time making stuff and then people just rip it off.
I suspect piracy will only increase as bourgeosie crime of the bankers and politicians is leaked into the public domain.
Apathy starts from the top and gradually trickles down the pyramid.
