This National Campaign, is managed using all media types in order to promote this brand. This brand has become a ‘customer favorite’ and is signed throughout the store, it will soon celebrate it’s 10 Anniversary proclaiming it’s success.

Home Sale | Direct Mail

Our Home Sale catalogs are the bread and butter of our business strategy. These catalogs are mailed twice a year, and are used to excite the customer with newness and trend ideas. I’m proud to say that during a challenging 2015 year in retail, these books exceeded sales plan, both online and instore! Confirming the theory that home is still ‘her’ most important space, day in and day out. Our mission is simple, that’s to keep her surrounded with the things she loves.

Gift Giving | Direct Mail

Gift giving happens twice a year in our minds when it comes to home goods, that’s specifically Mother’s Day and 4th quarter. This is our time to excite our customers with luxury brands at a ‘Friends & Family’ price point. These books are themed and shot with ‘magic’ in mind. The images and photo styling are refined and enhanced so each page has it’s own story, and each vendor has their own space to shine. These are the books ‘everyone’ wants to work on!

Hotel Collection | Only@Macy’s

Macy’s is known for it’s luxury linens with its own private brands. Hotel Collection is a featured brand name. Several times a year we feature this brand in a direct mail campaign. We call it our 5-star luxury brand, with a combination of luxury bedding, tabletop and utility.

Online | Home Omni Channel

Our digital strategy is simple, what’s featured in-store is also promoted online. The best customers shop all channels, whether she comes in-store to check ‘it’ out and then goes home to purchase is not an issue. But making sure she has the best experience either place is the key. Pushing for success in both channels is the ultimate goal, and being able to take customer feedback and adjust quickly is what makes shopping satisfying. We pride ourselves on being good listeners.
