    Christmas 2016 Update!

    Hi

    Christmas is fast approaching but don't worry we have a newly extended workshop (yes - again - twice in less than a year!) new team member, plenty of stock and new products for Christmas including a range of desktop calendars for 2017 and a fantastic new product which we're giving away as a free gift.

    Firstly a big thanks to all our fabulous customers for helping us to our best month ever in November, yet again
    , beating June this year and December last year... lets see if December can raise the bar yet again lol

    Christmas Break
    We are shutting for our Christmas break:

    From Thurs December 22nd- Tues January 3rd
    Cut off will be 11am Thursday 22nd December. Orders received across the Christmas break will despatch asap the week commencing Tues 3rd, in order - please use Priority processing in checkout, if items will be required urgently in the New Year as we generally return to a backlog which takes 2-3 days to clear...

    Christmas Free Gift
    This month with every order customers will be receiving our coaster-sized Sublimetals Christmas Card. This organza-threaded, brushed silver and Ultra gloss white printed card highlights a new use for our products. Priced for this size at only 69p per card, these items have the potential for a fantastic mark-up. A6, 6x6 square and A5 are also available, along with a range of gift boxes and display case. The freebies also fits snugly into our mini calendar stand (see photo), so for truly memorable cards that will become keepsakes, why not print them a Metal Greetings card? Also great for weddings, special birthdays or events, not just Christmas! We haven't seen printable metal greetings cards anywhere else, so why not start 2017 with a truly unique product for your customers?
    Any subsequent orders during December will receive a free blank card for you to print yourselves. As ever, if you send us a pic of your printed product that we can re-post you will receive a £10 voucher.

    Stock News
    Mostly good news on stock levels at the moment - we are well stocked on all metal thicknesses and colours except 0.7mm white and are stockpiling as much as possible for the New Year.
    Don't forget we can cut larger pieces up to 1200 x 600 mm .

    Ordering a quote

    Due to high demand we can no longer take phone or email quotes for designs. Please can you order quotes via the SAMPLES and QUOTES - general and CUSTOM CUT SHAPES page on our website.
    Our Custom Cut machine service is now being used by customers up and down the country. Just a reminder that the new machine means we can cut ANY shape, including inserts and flat shapes that can be assembled into 3D shapes. We are making all sorts of items from tiny dog outlines to sections that can be made into 3D trophy/awards, to iconic logo wall art for famous rock stars -get us!
    Use Custom Cut Shape Quote / Sample to request a quote and checkout and then email your shape, to receive your price and/or samples, turnaround for quotes is 3-5 days currently.

    New Products

    New Calendar Collections
    We now offer four desk calendars which you can print up with your designs. Each calendar comes with metal 'pages' which can be cycled. These can also be used as a desk display for photographs or information and extra pages are available. One suggestion is to do a four insert desk calendar (with a printed insert for each season) and a coaster, which will all fit into the calendar stand. Not only is this a brilliant Christmas gift for your clients and customers but will remind them of your business every day AND each time they have a drink. We've seen the standard ones printed up with paper retailing at over £12, so these could be nice profitable items, all year round.Keep checking the seasonal section for other exciting calendar additions soon!
    Christmas Shapes
    We have new Christmas shapes available including a sleigh to accompany the reindeers that we already stock to create fabulous wall art - why not have one or two or even the full eight? We now have larger snowflakes available and a further modern design to complement our traditional one - so as well as small decorations at 50mm (that make lovely novelty brooches or pendants) we have added a 90mm and 120mm as decorations that can also be printed as fridge magnets, coasters or a 'baby on board' sign plus an XL at 168mm that is perfect as a seasonal photo display. This looks stunning with three strung together to create a triptych and can be used as a countdown to Christmas - see our new photos for inspiration. We're also now offering a larger dry wipe stocking which is 197mm tall (sized to fit two on a Ricoh A4 page) perfect for adding to the fridge for children to compose their Christmas wish list for Santa!.
    Birthday and Anniversary Reminders
    These decorative wall hangings are very popular at the moment. The main large piece of metal is 300x100mm and is suitable for printing any photo montage or drawing, it is a particularly good shape for large family group shots or wedding photos. At the bottom of the piece there are 12 holes which can be labelled with the months of the year. From each of these customers can hang small hearts or discs with dates or photos on to remember birthdays and anniversaries. This is such an on-trend product at the moment and makes a great gift. Combined with our new Custom Cut machine the possibilities are endless and means you can provide your customers with a truly bespoke way to remember birthdays linked to their hobbies and interests, why not have tiny rugby ball shaped discs or tiny horses or dogs - whatever you decide this is a new product that will keep your customers returning for additional discs in the future.
    Clear Polydome
    We are now offering a new clear polydome at 85x33mm which fits over our budget name badge, either coloured or white. This makes the product look very professional and adds a final finishing touch.
    Round clock
    Another new product is our XL round clock, available in three thicknesses. This is not a seasonal product but would be another great gift idea or promotional tool for the New Year.
    Most of our Christmas and clock shapes now have templates which are downloadable once you place you order.

    New Year - New Products !
    We have some very exciting news about a range of new products we have coming in the New Year. These include a free standing Mobile Phone Stand and Luxury Coasters and Placemats which will be MDF backed.

    Special Offers
    Up to Christmas we are offering the NEW calendar collection, which comprises one each of our four new sizes of desk calendars, mailers/boxes plus our three fridge calendar blanks and extra inserts / hanging options at a reduced price of only £14.75 - a massive saving of £6.21!

    Finally, a new name in our signature bar below - meet Charlotte, our new team member, recruited to help Nicci out writing this very newsletter! Any ideas for items you would like to see - ideas or help or new products (more than half of our new items stem from customer requests - it may take us a while to develop them, but WE DO LISTEN!), so do please continue to email or FB message!

    That just leaves us to wish you a Happy Christmas and Merry New Year and as our Greetings card says .. Here's to a fantastic 2017!

    Kind Regards,
    Nicci, Carl, Bev, Claire, Sam, Amiee, Rob, Charlotte, Rocky and Clover - the Subli Metals team!
