    As you may have seen on the news, Vietnam is recovering from a recent typhoon. There is still serious flooding in Hanoi where our VTG factory is located, making it difficult for some factory workers to get to work. There is also some congestion at the UPS hub in Vietnam.  

    Given these uncertain conditions, we have extended the lead time by 3 days for Shirts, Knits, and Casual Pants. We are also turning off Fast Pass for Shirt, Knits, and Pants through the end of September. 

    We will continue to work closely with our factory partners and with UPS to monitor the situation and will provide you with any new updates.

    Backordered fabrics will be back in stock by the end of next week! 

    We have a few fabrics on backorder and have been working with our mill partners to get them back in stock quickly. The replenishment delays ranged from fabric production issues to delayed shipments from the mills as they worked around their summer closures in August.

    We would like to bring your attention to a discrepancy in the QC data for Layering Vests. Currently, the values in the “Ordered Length” and “Expected Length” columns are incorrect in the Manufacturer Quality Data window. However, the “Actual Length” column is correct and accurately reflects the length of the vest produced by the factory. 

    We are working to resolve this issue and expect it to be corrected within the next few weeks.

    From September 1st through November 30th, you have one more way to grow your business – our Enhanced New Client Referral Program! Under this program, you can encourage your existing Clients to help you grow. Here’s how:

    • Existing Clients who refer a New Client will receive a $150 credit when the referred Client purchases $1000 within three (3) months of their first order (New Client’s first order counts toward the $1000 total).
    • J.Hilburn will invest $125 toward the Client Referral Credit and the Stylist will invest $25. 
    • Credits earned will expire six months from the date of issuance encouraging Clients to use them quickly.

    This Enhanced Client Referral Program is a great way to incentivize your Clients to give more referrals and place more orders, but it will only be available for a limited time. The Enhanced Client Referral Program will end November 30, 2024. 

    Reminder: Make sure you are adding your referred Clients correctly during their new account setup so that your referring Clients get their $150 credit. Stylist Care will not manually add credits. Here is a quick refresher on how to do this:
     
    Step 1: Navigate to ‘My Clients.’

    Step 2: Click ‘Add Client.’

    Step 3: Begin typing the referring Client’s name in the ‘Referred By’ field.

    Step 4: A dropdown menu will appear as you begin typing the referring Client’s name. Select the referring Client from the dropdown menu.

     If you have questions, reach out to your Regional Sales Directors for more information.

    Our Enhanced Client Referral Program launched on September 1st, and we want to help you get the word out!

Look for the examples below and more in the ‘Client Referral’ category in the Custom Made Social app.

    Please note that all social posts referencing the Enhanced Client Referral Program must contain the following text in the caption:

    Starting September 1st, you’ll have one more way to grow your business with our Enhanced New Client Referral Program! Under this program, you can encourage your existing Clients to help you grow. Here’s how:

    • Existing Clients who refer a New Client will receive a $150 credit when the referred Client purchases $1000 within three (3) months of their first order (New Client’s first order counts toward the $1000 total).
    • J.Hilburn will invest $125 toward the Client Referral Credit and the Stylist will invest $25. 
    • Credits earned will expire six months from the date of issuance encouraging Clients to use them quickly.

    This Enhanced Client Referral Program is a great way to incentivize your Clients to give more referrals and place more orders, but it will only be available for a limited time. The Enhanced Client Referral Program will end November 30, 2024. 

    Reminder: Make sure you are adding your referred Clients correctly during their new account setup, so that your referring Clients get their $150 credit. Stylist Care will not manually add credits. Here is a quick refresher on how to do this:
     
    Step 1: Navigate to ‘My Clients.’

    Step 2: Click ‘Add Client.’

    Step 3: Begin typing the referring Client’s name in the ‘Referred By’ field.

    Step 4: A dropdown menu will appear as you begin typing the referring Client’s name. Select the referring Client from the dropdown menu.

     If you have questions, reach out to your Regional Sales Directors for more information.

    NEW THIS WEEK

    In an effort to make the information you need to run your J.Hilburn business more accessible and timely, we’re making some updates to the Weekly Update.

    You will notice a change in the format of this week’s email. Going forward, the Weekly Update will provide headlines of the week’s stories and link to full, detailed information in the Newsroom. There are many benefits to this format, including:

    • Easier Navigation – The new format will help you find the information that is most important to you more quickly.
    • More In-Depth Information – The new format allows us to provide more information on each topic as we won’t be constrained by the character limitations of email.
    • Easier Access – All weekly updates will be available in the Newsroom so that you can easily find information even if your weekly email gets lost or deleted. You can also easily review information you may have missed or refresh your memory on topics.
    • Coming Soon in the App – In a coming Stylist App update, the Weekly Update Newsroom articles will be available to view in the app, making access even more convenient.

    Due to many people having social and family obligations coming into the weekends, we’ve found that Fridays are not the ideal delivery day for the week’s most important email. We want this information to be top-of-mind as you begin the week. Therefore, starting next week, the Weekly Update email will be delivered on Sunday evening so that the information is fresh in your mind as you prep for the week ahead on Monday morning. If you need information earlier, you can access the Weekly Update in the Newsroom on Fridays.

    We hope you find the new format and cadence helpful.
