Younique Opens In United Kingdom, Fills Triple Digits Club In 26 Minutes

 
Younique, a cosmetics direct sales company dedicated to uplifting, empowering and validating women everywhere, opened its virtual doors (October 1, 2014) to the United Kingdom.
Within 26 minutes of the market opening, 999 Presenters had joined the Younique Family in the UK, solidifying the prestigious Triple Digits Clubfor that market. By contrast, it took the successful United States market nine months to reach this same milestone.

“The first 999 Presenters to join the Younique Family in each market are included in what we call the Triple Digits Club for that market,” says Younique Cofounder Melanie Huscroft. “These pioneering Presenters receive a special Triple Digits Club charm with their Presenter Kit, as well as Younique Cash (Y-Cash) to spend on their next purchase.”

The anticipation surrounding a Younique market opening continues to build with each new market launch. “There will no doubt be a lot of talk today, and in the coming weeks and months, about the growth of Younique in the United Kingdom,” says Younique Founder Derek Maxfield. “And numbers do matter, but for one main reason: It means that we are able to reach more people with our mission to uplift, empower and validate women everywhere.”
