“Entrepreneurs and small businesses have used eCommerce to become a key part of the economy worldwide,” Lewis added. “The Small Business Administration reports there are nearly 27 million small businesses in the United States and millions more worldwide. Recent polling suggests nearly 90 percent of small businesses in the United States either had no website or had a website with no e-commerce functionality.

“StoresOnline Express provides online entrepreneurs flexibility and control over their approach to eCommerce,” said David Rosenvall, CTO of iMergent. “We designed StoresOnline Express as a top of the line solution in this particular market. This solution also provides an upgrade path to StoresOnline Pro.”

“As you know, we conduct preview conferences that host hundreds of thousands of potential buyers each year followed by workshops that host only a small portion of those people,” Lewis continued. “By offering StoresOnline Express to preview conference attendees we hope to expand our potential customer base while growing our recurring revenue through hosting and support fees. StoresOnline Express is a perfect launch point for most online entrepreneurs. Now, our preview conferences can also generate revenue from StoresOnline Express, and our workshops will continue delivering the value added solutions and functions of StoresOnline Pro.”

Pricing and Availability
Following its proven model, iMergent began testing at a limited set of workshops in September and at its preview conferences in late October. The company plans on continuing to test its offer of StoresOnline Express to potential customers at the company’s previews and workshops and hopes to roll out this offering in all of its conferences by the end of March 2008, if not sooner. The company also intends to offer StoresOnline Express online through various channels including the “New Features” section of the StoresOnline web site. The software will initially retail for $199 with $24.95 per month for hosting and customer support.

Danks concluded, “We continuously invest in research and innovation to offer cost effective, sophisticated and highly competitive, yet user-friendly technologies. Our philosophy is to provide solutions to entrepreneurs and small companies, at every stage of development, to better manage and maximize their businesses. We are following that philosophy with StoresOnline Express. As the marketplace continues to expand we are poised to lead out and capture this growth with innovative technologies.”

iMergent Update on Australia and California

iMergent, Inc., (AMEX:IIG) a leading provider of eCommerce software for small businesses and entrepreneurs, provides update on Australia and California litigation.

On October 19, 2007, the Federal Court of Australia New South Wales District Registry ruled on a request for an injunction by the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC). The court declined to enter an injunction that would bar iMergent from conducting business in Australia.

The court, on a temporary basis, did not limit the company's ability to conduct business in Australia but did require the company to provide information to the ACCC and provide certain disclosures to purchasers. The court has directed the parties to agree on the form of the orders giving effect to reasons by the court, by October 26, 2007. The court has not yet scheduled a hearing on the request for a permanent injunction.

Consequently, the company is proceeding with the scheduled workshops in Australia during the week of October 22, 2007. The company expects to fully comply with the orders of the court.

On October 16, 2007, the company received an order from the California Court of Appeals dated October 12, 2007 that denied the writ of supersedeas filed with the California Court of Appeals. The writ was filed in an attempt to stay enforcement of the preliminary injunction entered by the Ventura County Superior Court on the grounds that the preliminary injunction constitutes a mandatory injunction mandating such a stay. The denial was without explanation and does not affect any right of the company to appeal the underlying ruling or the actual entry of the injunction.

Safe Harbor Statement
Statements made in this press release regarding the company's, (i) the Company's belief that it notify customers of the right to rescind and provide the specified disclosures, (ii) the expectation of the Company that it should be able to agree to most of the terms in the ACCC's requested permanent injunction, and (iii) that the Company will be able to hold the six seminars scheduled in Australia the week of October 22, 2007, are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially form those described in the forward-looking statements. For a more detailed discussion of risk factors that affect iMergent's operations, please refer to the company's Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2007.

It's been hailed as one of nature's superfoods. Said to be high in nutritional content, wheatgrass juice, which is made from sprouted wheat berries, is believed to have the ability to cleanse the body, neutralize toxins, slow the aging process and even purportedly prevent cancer.

But to the uninitiated taste bud, it can be hard to swallow at first.

Wheatgrass, which is 10 to 14 days of grown grass, is said to be high in chlorophyll, which in chemical composition closely resembles that of hemoglobin, a protein that carries oxygen in the bloodstream.

"Because wheatgrass is a living food, taking one ounce of wheatgrass juice daily is like having a supershot of vegetables," said Kaitlin Moller, founder of Wheatgrasskits.com in Springville.

But getting it down the hatch is another matter because the smell of freshly pulped grass juice can be daunting. "Just hold your nose and take it in one gulp," Moller says. How it started
The love of wheatgrass runs in Moller's family. She was inspired to start her own company because her mother, KK Fowlkes, started a home-based business, Western Wheatgrass, in Holloday in the early '90s. Fowlkes used to grow wheatgrass and deliver it to local healthfood stores, juice bars and spas in Utah. But she sold the business in 1994 after moving to Israel.

With less than $5,000 in start-up financing, Moller began selling grow-it-yourself wheatgrass kit supplies out of her garage in Mapleton in 2000, making less than $150,000 in her first year of operation. The need for more space for inventory, packaging and an office soon prompted her move to a 1,300-square-foot location in Springville. The business, which hopes to make between $1.3 million and $1.5 million in sales this year, placed fourth in Brigham Young University's student entrepreneurship competition in 2002. Moller is now considering expanding her business to a 6,000-square-foot building in Springville.

Moller attributed her company's strong sales growth to her brother, Parker Garlitz, whose online marketing strategies yielded dividends. "We had experimented with selling the wheatgrass kits through the classifieds in healthfood magazines," she said. "But we couldn't reach the volume of customers we wanted. We also did a direct mail catalog to existing customers. But that didn't do much either." Marketing strategies
Things changed when Garlitz began marketing the kits on the Internet through Orem-based Web hosting solutions provider iMergent Inc. "Without the Internet, we probably wouldn't even have a business," Moller said. "The cost of magazine advertising was even more than what we made in sales in our first year. But on the Internet, we can reach our target market more easily and faster. And my brother is experienced in that area."

"I started by selling printer supplies through iMergent's StoresOnline in 1999," said Garlitz, a business management graduate of BYU. "They taught us marketing strategies like how to do paid-search marketing, or sponsored listings. That means I pay the company whenever someone visits my Web site, wheatgrasskits.com. We usually get 2,000 hits on average per day."

The company is on paid and unpaid listings on Google, E-Bay and Amazon.com, and also advertises through a free monthly online newsletter to its 25,000 subscribers. "We advertise on comparison shopping engines like dealtime.com and frugal.com. We also do live directories, which is a Web site that our site is linked to that allows visitors to browse by topic," Garlitz said.

Not only does marketing online keep overhead costs lower, the Internet also helps get the word out about wheatgrass, Moller said. "Not many people know the health benefits of wheatgrass. And we need to use caution when we make claims about those benefits because the Food and Drug Administration isn't superfriendly to the raw foods industry. We can't make those health claims without going through drug trials. So we cite reports from authors of healthfood books, people who've written about the benefits of wheatgrass, and also add testimonials from our customers," she said.

Future Plans
Today Moller sells more than 150 products, including wheatgrass, barley grass, mushroom and soykits, herb and sprouting kits, juicers, smoothie makers, blenders, wheatgrass and barley seeds, healthfood books, gardening supplies and even live earthworms for composting purposes.

But the company is looking at growing its family of products to include gardening kits that can grow salad greens, herbs, sprouts, and even mushrooms year-round. "For the mushroom kits, we would provide the spores of shitake, maitaki and oyster, the growing substrate, or sawdust, a humidity tent which would provide the right moist climate for growth and growing instructions," Moller said.

"It's completely organic and more fun because you're growing it yourself. We're also expanding into flower garden starter kits, and working on our fourth Web site, flowergardenkits.com."

California Mom-Turned-Entrepreneur Boosts Company’s Bottom Line with Help from StoresOnline

California Mom-Turned-Entrepreneur Boosts Company’s
Bottom Line with Help from StoresOnline

Diana Blair used to mow lawns seven days a week to help provide for her family. Now, in her third year as a small business owner, this mother of three can spend her afternoons sipping lemonade while her company’s revenues have soared, reaching more than $380,000 in 2005.

“I originally started my own online store to allow me a break from mowing lawns on the weekends,” Blair said. “After just three short months, my company was bringing in about $66,000 in gross sales, so I was more than happy to quit mowing lawns and focus on selling maps online.”

Mrs. Blair, who is a self-proclaimed “big believer” in Thomas Guide Books, decided to begin an online store selling wall maps, folded map, road atlases and Thomas Guide books on the Internet. She named her business Map Books 4 U and has found numerous inexpensive and user-friendly ways to advertise her products and online map store. A resident of Nuevo, California, Blair attended a StoresOnline Web clinic in 2003 where she was introduced to the world of Internet sales and marketing.

With the help of StoresOnline, she gradually incorporated pay-per-click strategies and Internet search term optimization into her marketing approach. Her home-operated business has seen remarkable growth, generating $286,000 in gross sales in 2004 and handily passing that figure in 2005.

“Sales from my business have jumped dramatically as a result of effective online marketing,” Blair said. Her store is currently a leading distributor for Rand McNally, and she has been approached by National Geographic about selling its maps online at her site as well. Blair recently bought out a competitor’s business and has already refused a buyout offer of more than $250,000 for her own growing company.

“Diana’s story is fantastic because she worked like crazy to make it happen,” said Brandon Lewis, President of StoresOnline. “Along with her family, she has turned her small business into a true success and, according to her, it has changed their lives forever. We know it’s tough for entrepreneurs to make it when they start from the ground up, but our products and services can be a successful tool to help thousands of small businesses establish a meaningful online presence.”

StoresOnline offers comprehensive e-commerce store options and innovative software perfectly suited for entrepreneurs like Blair. Its simple format and superior customer service helped her launch her online store quickly and seamlessly.
