Roll up, roll up.
We are officially halfway through the year and still going full steam ahead! Prices have plateaued and stock is most definitely more attainable and not so much of a truffle hunt.
Kicking off with April and we have been branching out and introducing new product lines for you to try. The Bond It Drive Alive range has been a huge hit with their outdoor maintenance items such as the Colour Enhancer, Tarmac Restorer, and Organic Cleaner, just to name a few. As the weather improved, we wanted to give you a one stop shop to get all the goods you need for inside and out. We’re givers you see!
With a wider range of products has come a great deal of savings. Exclusive offers on our socials and in our newsletters, as well as door to door leaflets. With such a big range, we need to let you all know about it so we can make room for even more newbies.
With the introduction of Bond It’s Hybrid LMH25 being still one of our best sellers, we were made up when they introduced more colours to the menu! Along with White, Anthracite and Dark Anthracite, we now also have Mid Grey, Buff, Rosewood and Brick Red. But don’t just take our word for it… go and have a look for yourself!
As chuffed as we are for all of you ordering with us, we’re asking you to do us one extra by leaving reviews on your orders pretty please. It not only helps everyone, but also us. We want to see what you love and what’s working for you to help us bring you more of the stuff you love. We don’t expect you to do it for nothing though, all reviews come with a 10% discount code for you to use on your next order. Obviously, we love hearing about how great and helpful we are at SSL HQ, but feedback on the products is so helpful as well. They’re like DIY Gold dust!
Talking of helpful, we purchased a brand-new pump truck to make Gary ‘The Brands’ life easier. It was arriving on a day full of deliveries, 9 in fact. And guess what… it turned out the pump truck was delivery number 9… Sorry Gary! Haha
Summer has been in full swing and May saw us in high demand for all things external. As mentioned before, our growing range of products was really motivation from you lovely lot. Sealant wise, Everbuild 825, ARBO LM and Alpha Chem 800 LMN+ have been top of the charts for weeks now! Suns out, sealant guns out AMIRIGHT!? Not to say you haven’t all been working your bits off inside as well. Mapei have proven to be a hit with their Fuga Fresca Grout Reviver and Mapesil AC flying out of our stores. Talking of which We have 12 new Mapesil AC colours available now. With some refreshing new shades such as Sage, Light Lilac, Spelt and Cerulean to name a few, this now brings the total colours to 54!
May was also SSL’s 4th birthday. Getting on a bit now boys and girls aren’t we! It also marked the end of a string of birthdays in the office. February, March, April, and May… this meant a LOT of Krispy Cremes, but nothing we can’t handle.
Our monthly playlists are proving to be a bit of a hit. If you have any suggestions, make sure you ping them over to us. You can let us know on Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter. We’re an eclectic bunch so go wild!
We’ve also had an influx of new trade accounts being opened. We try our utmost to keep our prices competitive for you by regularly revisiting and tweaking where we can for you. We understand that it’s been a tough year material wise so thanks for sticking with us and applying.
June got hotter still didn’t it!? How did you all cope? Was it welcome or are you counting down the days to an autumn breeze? Haha.
Ole Queenies Jubilee was a very welcome break for us all as we expect it was for you lot too. We gave you a discount on all external sealants to get ready for your garden parties and you snapped it up! Thank you! We hope your weekends were well spent.
We launched a competition for you and a friend to win one of our complete kits each, with the choice of winning either a Glazing Kit or a Kitchen & Bathroom Kit. We had an incredible response and our 2 lucky winners both chose the Kitchen & Bathroom Kit. If you haven’t checked out our kits already, they really take the shopping about out of the job. We are looking into adding more to the mix so keep an eye out for them popping up soon! And give us a follow on our socials to see when our next competition happens.
While we are on the news of savings and giveaways, we managed to save you guys a massive £2069.99 this quarter! Be sure to sign up to our newsletter for exclusive offers and codes. We don’t scrimp on the newsletter discounts FYI.
‘What are your plans for the next quarter!?’ We hear you cry! Well to keep it brief… more of all the things you want and need to make life so much easier! But apart from giving you the lottery numbers, which sadly we don’t have, we will be adding new products to make the transition from Summer to Autumn seamless. So stay alert, okay. With new products comes more giveaways and discounts, and we would like to try and top the last few months.
As well as all of that, we are always on the phone and email if you need any help or advice. That’s what were here for after all 😊
So, with all of this going on, as well as scrambling to try and get Foo Fighters tickets (all but one of us failed), enjoying the odd well deserved weekend beer, and countless ice pole breaks, we’re pretty happy with all the above!
Let’s catch up in another 3 months, shall we?
Great speaking at you!
