The advice I could give you is to do the training yourself but keep Alan. Why? He can also give advice re training and hopefully by now you can do the training yourself. Or like you thought yourself, have a trainer every other week rather than once a week.

I've got a webshop in food supplements and November was the worst month in 2 years as a side-effect of the financial crisis: interestingly things picked up again in Dember. We figure it must be that people figure they have to set priorities and health is one of them.. plus we cut about 10% of prices. Too bad most new & even old customers seem to opt for the most expensive paying method: Paypal with 5% provision costs as opposed to simply paying by means of debit card (7 cents).. difference is that bank transfers take 1 day, while Paypal is immediate. People want to get their stuff NOW or yesterday, not tomorrow and don't care about how much it costs to the company. We are trying to figure out incentives, and I think we just will tell them openly that whoever pays by means of Paypal won't ever get a faithful customer's discount.. that discount already goes to Paypal
I don't think people know what it costs. Paypal sells security. If banks could assure safety people would use bank cards. Maybe you could treat Paypal like businesses treat American Express and give a discount to use debit cards.
