For many commercial organisations, Christmas is the most profitable time of the year, so having a stunning display of decorations is an investment rather than a cost. The Christmas Decorators are one of the countries leading installers of commercial decorations and our clients include hotels, bars, restaurants, offices, high street stores, shopping centres and many others.
Yearly overview
At The Christmas Decorators, the year follows a well-structured cycle year on year. From February to March, our primary focus is on financial wrap-ups, bidding for large projects, and performance reviews. From April to August is dedicated to sales, marketing and brand development, mainly focusing on commercial opportunities. As we move into September, we shift marketing efforts to include targeting residential opportunities and start pre-installation planning, leading into the busy installation period. From October to mid-December, primarily focusing on instillations. After enjoying time off during Christmas, we return in January and February to dismantle and store equipment and decorations.
Our key priorities include marketing from February to August, sales from April to September, project management in September and October, installations in the autumn, and financial planning in the early part of the year.
This structured approach ensures our franchisees stay organised, efficient, and ready for each season.
