Spring 2019 Hardlines Strategies

MARKET PREVIEW

Additions to the vanities include a range of colors, styles and finishes. Each Hardware House item is covered by the Blish-Mize manufacturer’s warranty. There are thousands of items currently available in the Hardware House brand, and Blish-Mize is continuing its work of adding even more products. Learn more about Hardware House’s offerings in the story on Page 41. Marketing While at the Show Blish-Mize offers an abundance of marketing tools designed to help an independent retailer reach their consumer base and let customers know why they can be better served by patronizing a locally owned and operated independent business. Blish-Mize’s online and print advertising programs, custom store signage,

website update and design, social media tips and customer loyalty programs keep customers coming back. Head over to the sales area of the Spring Buying Market and find out about these marketing options. Key Areas to Notice Following Thursday’s MVP Event, things really heat up at the Spring Buying Market, with several key areas of the show floor to explore and take advantage of. First is THE 24, which will be located right on the show floor and displays a carefully curated selection of products chosen by the Blish-Mize team. These products will maximize margins and strengthen retailers’ product selection. These items are especially useful for preparing for the coming summer months of home renovation projects.
