Marketing Tips for October – part 1: Trend Research

Get your shop going for Christmas: There are just about 10 weeks left for you to prepare your shop for the biggest event of the year. You should use what is left of October to analyse your customer’s needs and requirements, and to get your shop in line with these. It’s a good idea to find out about your (potential) customers preferences first. The following two questions are vital to figure out what your customers want:

What products and designs are your customers looking for?

And which products are best suited for Christmas gifts?

The easiest means of analysis is to answer the question: Which products did your customers order last year prior to Christmas? Which of your designs did well in this period? Last year’s sales figures will give you a very clear indication on which designs and products you should put the main focus on for this year as well. Read more

Buy more, pay less

Soon we will offer our Marketplace and T-Shirt Designer customers a volume discount starting from 5 or more products. This discount has no effect on your commission. Quite the contrary – in fact, we hope to increase your sales with this discount and improve your earnings!
 
The discount will only be available in the Marketplace and T-Shirt Designer so we can gather data and feedback from our customers. If the volume discount passes the test, then we can certainly imagine offering such a discount for partner shops.
 
We’d still like to offer your shop’s customers a goodie so they can enjoy buying lots of shirts at once too! The 5 for 4 promotion will return in glory at the end of November where they get 5 products for the price of 4. More details soon!

Think Pink – October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month

The Breast Cancer Awareness Month was set up in 1985 in order to promote mammography as an effective way of early detection. It was not only meant to increase the awareness of the disease and to remind women (and men) of all ages to use early detection programs, but also to raise funds for institutions that are related to Breast Cancer, such as research and care centres.
In order to detect breast cancer women (and men) are encouraged to get to know their bodies, are advised to scan their breasts and feel more confident about reporting any unusual changes. Changes don’t have to be a sign of breast cancer, but the sooner the cancer is diagnosed the better.

The Spreadshirt Autumn/Winter Catalog 2012

Do you want 52 pages of pure excitement? The best, cosiest, most creative styles for autumn and winter?
Well you’re in luck, because our new Autumn/Winter catalog is here and it brings you fresh new ideas for designs, products and life in general. No matter if you want to take a stroll through a snowy landscape in a hoodie or a windbreaker, our products will make it all the more fun. Being outside when the air is crisp and the leaves are falling is the best, if you are dressed accordingly. But while everyone else is wearing their boring grey sweaters, you can create an individual one on our site.
If you are still looking for inspiration, look no further than the new catalog, you might find the design of your dreams. If you already have an awesome idea for your favorite piece of clothing in the colder months, our catalog will help you to see which fit and colour might suit you best. We even worked our magic and took some pictures in the snow – in fact we took as many  pictures outside as we could to show you how good you will look in our clothes enjoying the autumn and winter weather.
Unconventional, uncompromising, playful  – that’s our new catalog for you.
Just like in the issues before we wanted to make it easy peasy for you to find the designs and products you like online at Spreadshirt.co.uk. We have added a Design ID to each of the designs in the catalog. Just put them in the search bar on our platform and you are good to go. It was our goal to show you the many possibilites you have with Spreadshirt and inspire you to create your own very personal winter look.
But fear not: you only have to take care of the pleasant side of things, and we will sort out everything else. At Spreadshirt, we print all your t-shirts, hoodies or  accessories by hand so that you can lean back and focus on your creativity.
