PLEATCO.com & Scene New for this year - in conjunction with The Hot Tub Club New for this year - in conjunction with The Hot Tub Club New for this year - in conjunction with The Hot Tub Club
Welcome to a packed April issue of Hot Tub and Swim Spa Scene where we anticipate the forthcoming peak selling season with great excitement.
We have all fingers crossed for prolonged good weather for the warmer months ahead.
But before the season takes off, we invite you to take time out to savour your April issue. We invite you to take a note of what other companies are doing to boost business and encourage you to build those ideas into your own sales and marketing plans.
Look out for reports on the BISHTA awards with some cracking case studies and an exclusive insight into the creation of Plastica’s hot tub in a car which stole this year’s SPATEX show.
Even more excitingly, Hot Tub and Swim Spa Scene secured privilege access, with back stage passes to this year’s Ideal Home Show courtesy of Hydropool UK’s Jonathan Bunn. One of the best teams in the business, Jonathan generously shares some of the strategies his team use to maximise sales at the show.
Traditionally, the season curtain raiser, Ideal Home is a
perfect way of testing the waters for the year ahead. All eyes are on changes in colour trends and the sustained growth of swim spa sales.
While promoting the Hydropool brand, the high-profile appearance at the UK’s longest running consumer show, helps promote home hot tub ownership, boosting sales, not just for Hydropool, but the industry as a whole.
Enjoy!
