GOING FORWARD IN 2022
The Creative Team
April saw the start of Elspeth , our new marketing executive ; you might have seen some of her blog posts and social posts . She has come fresh into the auto locksmith industry with a drive to learn ; since starting , she has learnt endless niche terms and now understands how key cutting machines work !
In October , the creative team then welcomed James , the graphic designer , who has had to familiarise himself with all the intricacies of the auto locksmith world .
Together these new members had their first taste of an auto locksmith trade show in October at the MLA and are already in the planning stages of the LockExpo in March of 2022 .
‘ Being back at the MLA gave us the chance to get your feedback ’
New website
July was a busy month . Our creative team worked on the new website for a little over a year , and when the time came to release the new and improved website , it included exciting features that we couldn ’ t wait for you to use . Since the release , we have received so much positive feedback , however we always keep our ears to the ground and on Facebook to hear of any ways we can improve .
We are now even more confident that our website has become the industry benchmark ! We made many tweaks and changes that developed our site to where it is now . Adding more features such as an improved search feature , bulk buy options , and a quick buy option so you can make those repeat purchases quickly , to name a few of the updates .
Trade show MLA expo
October of 2021 saw 3D Group debut back at our first trade show since the Covid-19 pandemic . We spent months planning our stand design , and on the day , we were so pleased with how great our stand looked .
The whole team were excited to mingle with you all and catch up after what felt like years . Oh , wait , it was ! Being back at the MLA gave us the chance to get your feedback , ask for your insight , and show you the latest products .
Without these critical events , it would be challenging to stay in contact with you all and highlight why 3D Group is unique . With that in mind , we are excited for the LockExpo , coming up in March 2022 .
‘ We see this location move as a step towards a fresh start , the beginning of a new era ’
New build
December was exciting , to say the least ; after months of planning and preparation , we were able to move into our new HQ .
Packing up over ten years ’ worth of memories and hard work into several removal lorries and taking it to the premises that we have been working hard to move to was such a great feeling . Our timing felt perfect , moving in just in time for Christmas , setting up everyone in their new workspaces , even managing to get our Christmas tree set up to have two weeks of festivity .
At 3D Group , we see this location move as a step towards a fresh start , the beginning of a new era . We cannot wait to see where we go from here .
Thank you for your valued custom during 2021 , and we hope you can join us in our excitement for 2022 and all the new opportunities it will bring .
