4. HARDWARE DESIGNERS
The devil is always in the detail and sash
windows are no exception. Every piece of
operating hardware for ECOSlide PVCu
vertical sliding sash windows is uniquely
designed by Victorian Sliders. A team of
designers uses the latest 3D R&D rapid
prototyping technology. A dedicated
production facility in China, owned and
managed by the UK, manufactures hardware
components to exacting European quality
standards. As a result, ECOSlide hardware is
robust and hard-wearing for the UK climate,
yet exquisitely shaped to visually appeal to
British homeowners.
5. MOBILE SHOWROOMS
Victorian Sliders has rolled out a fleet of 14 ECOSlide-branded
mobile demonstration vans, as part of a £1.5 million increased
investment in Sales & Marketing initiatives to generate increased
demand for ECOSlide PVCu vertical sliding sash windows.
Operating on a local regional basis, these travelling showrooms
are packed with 10 sash window samples including a bay window
assembly. Professional Trade Installers can book online for a demo
van to be driven to the mainland UK location of their choice.
Whenever possible, the ECOSlide field sales team will deliver
these mobile showrooms on the specific day and time requested,
to help busy installers review the quality of ECOSlide windows
with their homeowner clients.
6. SUPPORTING INSTALLERS
Victorian Sliders support Professional Trade Installers in a variety of
practical ways, with materials such as eye-catching ECOSlide consumer
sales brochures and subsidised sales demonstration windows supported
by an unbeatable “get £100 back guaranteed” commercial offer. But
the best way to support installers is to help them secure a healthy
profit for every window installed. The company encourages installers to
“Join the Margin-Makers”. Thanks to production efficiencies, Victorian
Sliders really can sell high quality ECOSlide windows to the trade at
just £199 up to a maximum size of 1300mm wide by 2400mm high with
toughened glass in both top and bottom sashes.
7. HORSE-RACING ENTHUSIASTS
Ffos Las race course, home of the Welsh Champion Hurdle, is
located just a few miles from the Victorian Sliders headquarters in
Carmarthenshire. The company sponsors exciting horse racing at Ffos
Las with a corporate hospitality box adjacent to the finishing line. New
and prospect customers who enjoy a bit of a flutter are very welcome
to join Victorian Sliders Sales Director, Mark Richmond, for an event to
remember, with drinks and food and even overnight accommodation
provided if required. The result? Winners all round!
