Switching Trade Shows for the Showroom

posted on 13 May in Showroom by The Marketing Angels.

Suzanne from The Parsley Pot has been buying from us for over 16 years! We were happy to welcome her back to the Showroom for a visit.

When did you visit the Showroom?

I visited in May 2021 and found it to be Covid secure and a safe environment to do my Christmas buying. I used to buy the Christmas range at the Spring Fair, NEC; but for the past 4 years, I have been visiting the showroom. It really is an exceptional range for Christmas 2021!

I now prefer to visit the Showroom as opposed to buying at Trade Shows. It’s a much more enjoyable, relaxed environment where I can make un-pressurised and un-hurried buying decisions. With Christmas being so important for my gift shop, its essential to get my range right for my customers. I want to make sure, I give my customers the best choice of new products at the right price points, to offer value for money.

A big thank you to Suzanne for paying us a visit.

Gonks Galore at the Showroom

posted on 27 Apr in Showroom by The Marketing Angels.

Michele Elliott from House of Elliott (Gift, Clothing and Jewellery shop) in Hemel Hempstead visited the Heaven Sends showroom this week.

When did you visit the Showroom?
Michele said: “I visit the Heaven Sends showroom every April. But the showroom always looks different each time I visit; and there are so many new and different Christmas items this year.

The ranges are always so beautifully presented and I find visiting the showroom very inspirational, in terms of getting ideas for displays and my Christmas window.

The Christmas range really does cater for anyone’s tastes, as there is so much variety. And very good price-points!

What was your favourite part of your visit?

The range of Gonks this year is second to none!

Jeff gave me some great advice on window display items, so I left having placed my Christmas order and having planned my in-store and Christmas window displays. So now I needn’t worry about Christmas, I can get on and concentrate on my shop, having just re-opened after lockdown.

It took me hours making the right choices, but Jeff provided us with a lovely lunch and cake! What more can you ask?”

A big thank you to Michele for paying us a visit.

New Christmas 2021 Has Launched!

posted on 22 Feb in General News, Our Products, Showroom by Katie Mann.

New Christmas 2021 Launch

We’re so excited to share our fantastic New Christmas Collection with you. It’s now available to preview and pre-order here on our website, at our extensive showrooms and via your Rep.

To ensure you get your first picks from our collection, we ask that you pre-order as soon as possible to secure your selections from the 2021 collection. You don’t pay a penny to reserve your stock until we dispatch later in the year on a date that suits you.

It will be strange this year not to be attending the main shows early in the year but to make up for it we’ve pulled out all the stops to transform our Showrooms in to a one stop shop for Christmas 2021.

We really recommend a visit to our extensive Showrooms here in Sutton Coldfield, Birmingham (conveniently located only 20mins away from the NEC). It’s the best way to see the entire collections in a safe and relaxed environment, allowing you to be inspired by our displays.

Our Showrooms are open under strict COVID safety measures, find our more here.

Your Angel is here to help
Not sure where to start? Your dedicated on the road Angel rep is here to help you make the best selections.

That's Christmas All Wrapped Up!

posted on 30 Sep in Showroom by Katie Mann.

Carolyn & Hollie from All Wrapped Up & All Dressed Up in Lutterworth recently joined us at the Showroom to stock up on fabulous Christmas stock.

HOW WAS YOUR VISIT?
“We have been buying from Heaven Sends for over 15 years, visiting twice a year to choose our seasonal ranges and to be the first to order new lines. We enjoy visiting the showroom as we find it so much more relaxing than trying to choose products at busy trade shows. As usual, the Showroom was beautifully decorated with a fabulous choice of gifts and homewares.”.

DID YOU FEEL SAFE DURING YOUR VISIT?
“We visited the showroom on Monday 14th September and we were very impressed with the measures put in place, due to Covid-19. Jeff went through the safety procedures with us upon arrival. Our temperatures were taken at reception, and we hand sanitised before entering. We loved the new layout, there was a lot more space having the products across 2 floors."

"Heaven Sends continue to be one of our favourite suppliers!"

A big thank you to Carolyn & Holly for visiting us! x

What experts are forecasting for Xmas 2020

posted on 16 Sep in General News by Katie Mann.

We think the saying ‘can you believe we’re in September already’ has already been worn out, but what a crazy year it has been!

With so much uncertainty, it’s reassuring to have some certainity that our tradition of Christmas will happen. Something to look forward to and celebrate will likely be the morale boost we all need to get through an otherwise very very strange year.

Today marks 100 days until Christmas. In retail land, that’s not long at all and many are still playing lockdown catch up when it comes to planning Christmas stock and displays.

What The Experts Are Saying:

Surveys from Money.co.uk show that consumers are feeling positive about Christmas spending and grateful to have something to safely celebrate. Many of us have had to cancel or postpone our usual get-togethers: weddings, birthday parties… Christmas will be a welcome time of celebration with our nearest and dearest.

Financially, customers are ready to spend. Salman Haqqi, personal finance expert at Money.co.uk says:

“64% of the public we polled said they intended to spend more or at least as much on Christmas presents in 2020, as they did in 2019. Last year people said they intended to spend an average of £780 on Christmas gifts but this year is set to increase to £965”.

The article goes on to say Christmas shopping is likely to start sooner this year, especially if customers can get a deal.

“Three quarters of those polled revealed they would consider starting their Christmas shopping earlier if it could save them money”.

With that being said, it’s time to consider how to make the most of the festive season ahead and maximise your sales. Are you ready?

Get inspired for Christmas

Our Showroom is open!

Our showroom has been refreshed and revamped to adhere to social distancing protocols. You can safely browse our entire Christmas and Everyday collections and be inspired by our displays. Arrange your visit.

Dandelion Gifts from Frodsham, Cheshire, recently visited the Showroom to get inspired and secure their Christmas stock for the coming retail season. What better place to get excited for the most wonderful time of the year?

How was your visist?

“We had a fantastic visit to see the Christmas collections. Louise was very welcoming and gave us a tour of the Showroom which was very spacious and set up with displays of all the different themes. Everything was set out and prices displayed. Louise left us to browse and get inspired. She then rejoined us to scan our selection as well as recommending items and bestsellers”.

We were recently joined in the Showroom by Hazel and Shayne from Kaboodle, Shropshire. They were on the lookout for some Christmas stock and came to the Showroom to see the ENTIRE collection under one roof.

How did you find your visit?

We received a lovely, friendly welcome to your well-lit, spacious Showroom. Help was always on hand from Helen as we browsed the ranges.

We felt safe during our visit with all the Covid precautions- it was great to see the fantastic varied collections ‘in the flesh’. It was great to be able to see all Christmas and Everyday ranges and get inspired by the displays. We’d thoroughly recommend a visit!
