📢 Attention Furniture Suppliers and Home Decor Manufactureres!

Big changes are coming with the General Product Safety Regulations (GPSR), effective 13th December 2024. These new rules are designed to enhance consumer safety and will directly impact how furniture is supplied and sold.

🔑 Key things to know:
✔️ GPSR ensures all products meet strict safety standards.
✔️ Suppliers must document compliance
✔️ Non-compliance risks fines, recalls, and reputational damage.

🌟 Be ready for the change and make safety your top priority! Not only will you protect your customers, but you'll also boost trust in your brand.

My name is Bogumila, and I’ve always had a dream to make the wholesale process easier for both furniture and home décor manufacturers and buyers in the sector.

As a former buyer for a major furniture retailer, I realized that many great products couldn’t pass our evaluation process—often because manufacturers lacked experience working with retailers. It became clear to me that there was a gap in the market: someone needed to step in and guide these brands through the complexities of working with big stores.

Many brands end up learning through expensive trial and error, but where else can they turn for help? After all, their competitors in the sector are unlikely to share their knowledge.

That’s when I decided to create a space where brand owners could feel supported and gain the right knowledge. I founded my company in 2016 and built everything from scratch—developing a database of potential buyers, crafting compelling offers, and refining supplier proposals to drive success. This work has helped my clients generate over 6 million euros in turnover and successfully partner with top retailers like Westwing and Harrods.

Stop wasting money on costly mistakes—let me guide you through the process. Follow my account for valuable insights and practical tips that will help you and your team perform at your best.

Furniture makers. It's time to improve your business!

Exporting and working with resellers can sometimes feel like a never-ending story! 🌍📦 Even though many brands think they have it all figured out, we still often need to explain and teach how to properly prepare crucial documents.

Let’s break down three key ones:

📝 Delivery Note: This document travels with the shipment, listing all items, quantities, and dates. It helps confirm receipt and keeps inventory in check.

📦 Packing List: An itemized document with details about the contents and packaging. It ensures the right items are packed and shipped.

🚛 CMR: A contract used in international road transport, detailing the shipment to ensure legal clarity between shipper and carrier.

These documents are critical for smooth logistics and avoiding costly mistakes. But here's where it gets tricky—do you know the difference between a delivery note and a packing list? 🤔

If you want to know more about how they differ and why that matters, comment YES below! 👇

Furniture Makers and Home Decor Brand Owners – Understanding the Difference Between Margins and Markups is Crucial for Your Business! 💡

🔑 Why is this so important? Confusing margins with markups can lead to serious pricing mistakes. You might end up undercutting your profits or overpricing your products. Margins show how much you keep, while markups are about how much you add to cover your costs.

Getting this right is essential for maintaining healthy profitability. Properly calculating your margins ensures you're making the profit you need without pricing yourself out of the market.

Keep in mind, that when you present your offer to store owners, they'll be checking whether your pricing is solid and competitive.

💬 If you’re not confident about how margins and markups impact your pricing, it’s time to clear up the confusion!

Home Decor Makers... I need to share with you something...

I was absolutely shocked when I discovered that one of my clients had 27 different box sizes for their products. 😵‍💫 Imagine the complexity and inefficiency of managing so many variations! Not only did this create unnecessary confusion, but it also led to wasteful spending on packaging and shipping costs.

After conducting a thorough audit of their packaging system, we were able to streamline the process and cut the number of box sizes down to just 9 optimized sizes. 💪💪💪 This simple change saved them thousands of euros per year in shipping and packaging costs. Plus, with fewer box sizes, they significantly reduced storage space and improved overall logistics.

Optimized packaging doesn’t just lower costs—it also speeds up operations, reduces waste, and helps build a more sustainable brand.

So, when was the last time you reviewed your packaging strategy? Even small changes can lead to big savings! 💸

If you want to learn how to simplify your packaging and improve your bottom line, let’s talk. Follow me for more insights on optimizing your business processes.

🛋️ Furniture Makers & Home Decor Manufacturers! 🏠

Buyers responsible for product selection in stores are busier than ever, and they don’t have time to dive into every detail of your offer. That’s why your proposal needs to be as clear and transparent as possible from the start.

The key to building trust is consistency. Constantly changing terms or tweaking conditions not only confuses the buyer—but it makes you look unprofessional. 👎 Frequent changes signal instability and raise red flags. 🚩🚩🚩 This hesitation can cost you the deal.

Your goal is to build confidence, not uncertainty. 🌟

Keep your terms simple, straightforward, and stable. The more consistent and reliable you are, the better your chances of closing that important sale.

🛋🪑Furniture Brand Owners!

The market is full of great products, but many brands struggle in B2B despite their quality. Why? 🚨

- Lack of marketing and sales budgets.
- Difficulty building trust with B2B buyers.
- Scaling challenges without the right infrastructure.
- Failing to stand out in a crowded market.

But what we see every day is a WRONG APPROACH TO B2B.

You can be in this 20% that succeed!!!! ✨🌟

When working with resellers, you need to stay two steps ahead. Be proactive, ensure your partners can adjust swiftly, and build a seamless workflow. Many small brands miss out on effective B2B marketing like content, SEO, and lead generation, leading to low visibility.

Take charge of your B2B strategy! 🚀 Stop to repeat other errors - follow my profile and learn how to do it well.
