Retaining current customers and growing your sales is easy if you use these helpful tools each month! Remember to download our NEW REP MONTHLY CALENDAR (like the sample shown below) for weekly marketing ideas, and step-by-step helps to stay in touch with your customers.
It’s finally here! We’re always so excited to debut our holiday catalog, and this year is no exception. We’re gaga about the new gift wrap prints, and salivating about all the holiday meals and treats we’re planning to make.
We hope you love Catalogs 11 & 12 as much as we do!
During Catalogs #11 & 12, we’re focusing on easing the stress of holiday meals. Alison’s Pantry offers mouthwatering, foodservice-quality products to support everyone from the harried working mom to the retired foodie who loves to bake from scratch. Even if a customer enjoys preparing most of her feast from family recipes, our catalogs offer wonderful items to supplement their menu or support their gift-giving.
For families looking for delicious Thanksgiving shortcuts, we recommend:
- Norbest Sweetheart Turkey Breast
- Lamb Weston Garlic Redskin Mashed Potatoes
- Bright Harvest Sweet Potato Casserole
- Grande Classics Whole Green Beans
- Janey Lou’s Beehive Rolls
- Good Old Days Apple Caramel Crisp
As Christmas approaches, we’ve also prepared a fun 12 Days of Christmas marketing plan to wrap your 2018 sales up with a bow!
Suggested Products for Sampling During Catalog #11 & 12:
Allowing your customers to see and sample products can really help your sales! Here are a few products that we suggest sampling or displaying to help your holiday sales:
- Bright Harvest Sweet Potato Casserole: This item is a staple at MANY customer Thanksgiving and Christmas meals. Order in a sample with #10 if you can, so you can promote it early!
- All Wrapped Up Gift Wrap: When customers see these adorable coordinated gift wraps, they see why we get so excited to see the new styles each year. They’re not just for wrapping presents! Use them as festive table runners, too.
- Any of the new products featured on pages 2-5 of Catalog #11 would be perfect for purchasing early to promote to customers for Christmas.
- Janey Lou’s Beehive Rolls or Cinnamon Rolls. These are essentials for the holidays!
Please remember to let customers know about the products that will be leaving our catalogs after #12 when the new list is posted. Be sure to check this link to see the full list. Then you can share this information with your customers so they can stock up on personal favorites before they leave the catalog.
Duplicate these text scripts and send to your customers to round up better orders. We’ve included shortened links to make it easier for you.
