Season 3 Episode 10: Let's talk Christmas - what's it like buying, trading and promoting Christmas products

Here we are our final episode for Season 3, ending with a Christmas special :) We’ve both bought Christmas for over 7 years and it was one of our favourite areas to buy, it can be so much fun! We talk favourite themes, development trips, sample mishaps and what happens in a Christmas sign off- the one everyone in the company wants to be at! We are now signing off for Christmas and wish all our listeners and lovely break and a Merry Christmas. See you in the new year when we will be back for season 4! 

1. Black Friday- the debate, should you or shouldn't you, what feels right for your brand- you need to repeat those numbers next year. Are you just bringing forward sales that could still come with more profit
2. Christmas is all about being creative, don't be afraid to try those bold themes but remember traditional will always be in style and let’s make christmas more environmentally friendly, there is so many great new techniques out there. 
3. Everyone will have an opinion in the sign off, stay true to your customer and don't let emotion get in the way of a decision.
