Tag: November Update

  • Weekly Update – November 28, 2025

    HOLIDAYS 2025

    The Home Office will be closed on Thursday, November 27th, and Friday, November 28th, in observance of the Thanksgiving holiday.

    To support you as you close out the month of November, the Stylist Success Team will be available on Saturday, November 29th, from 8:30 AM to 12:00 PM CST, and Sunday, November 30th, from 12:00 PM to 8:00 PM CST. 

    Challenge Ends Sunday, November 30th at 11:59 PM

    We’re closing out November with a festive “thank you” to all of you who have helped make the Seasonal Appreciation promotion such a success. Say hello to the Thanksgiving “Thank You” Challenge, your chance to earn entries for an exclusive, personally sourced Large Pale Pink Ferragamo Tote… straight from Milan (retail value $1650 US).

    How it works is simple:
    From Friday, 11/21/25 at 12:01 a.m. CST through Sunday, 11/30/25 at 11:59 p.m. CST, every order of $1,000 or more earns you one raffle entry. There’s no cap, no limit, and no complicated math. Just produce qualifying orders, and you’re in.

    The more high-value orders you place, the more entries you stack.
    Example: Submit six $1,000+ orders during the promotion window, and you earn six entries in the Ferragamo tote drawing.

    And here’s the best part:
    We’ll be drawing two winners, one from each cohort:

    • 1 Stylist winner

    • 1 Studio Stylist winner

    These aren’t just any totes. They were personally sourced in Italy by our Home Office’s own Simone Pizzuti and cannot be purchased in the U.S. This is true Italian luxury and a one-of-a-kind reward for your hard work this season.

    Key Details

    • No limit on the number of qualifying orders from 11/21–11/30

    • Orders from new or existing Clients both count

    • Repeat November buyers count if their new order is $1,000+

    • Only orders placed during the promotion period qualify

    Both winners will be drawn live on the Tuesday, 12/2 All-Stylist Call at 10:30 a.m. CST.
    The Ferragamo totes will ship to winners within 24 hours of the raffle.

    This is our way of saying thank you for your dedication, your creativity, and the momentum you’ve brought to the season. Now, go stack those entries for your chance to bring home a little luxury from Italy.

    We are pleased to launch a Client incentive for November and December: Seasonal Appreciation.

    This exciting program rewards your Clients for investing in their personal style in November and creates natural opportunities for you to re-engage them in December.

    Here’s How Seasonal Appreciation Works:

    • Clients earn $150 in credits for every $1,000 spent in November, up to $750 total.
    • Credits can be redeemed from December 5–31 toward additional purchases.
    Watch the video below for more details on how to maximize this offer:

    Seasonal Appreciation appeals to Clients who value exclusivity, quality, and smart rewards. This is an ideal way to strengthen Client relationships heading into the holidays and increase your November and December sales.

    Get Full Details on Seasonal Appreciation

    Fall is here – and the holidays are just around the corner! We strongly encourage you to place your holiday orders as early as possible. For any Clients wishing to place gift orders for the holidays, please refer to the order cut-off dates below. These dates are being offered as guidelines NOT as guarantees. If your Clients order by these dates, it is more likely that they will receive their orders in time for the holidays. Please note that denim is not included in the cutoffs because we cannot guarantee the delivery date this year. 

    NEW THIS WEEK

    The checkout feature on JHilburn.com is temporarily disabled for all Ready-to-Wear items, including shoes and gift cards. Clients will now see an option to “Send to Stylist” instead. Please ensure you are regularly reviewing your Open Web Orders to stay updated.

    We’re kicking off December with the Step Into Success Contest, your chance to earn entries for premium prizes from Allen Edmonds, America’s iconic shoemaker since 1922. When you introduce Clients to their craftsmanship, you’re not just selling shoes; you’re elevating wardrobes, deepening relationships, and reinforcing the value of expert, personalized styling.

    How It Works

    From Monday, 12/1/25 at 12:01 AM CST through Wednesday, 12/31/25 at 11:59 PM CST, every pair of Allen Edmonds shoes you sell earns you one raffle entry.

    No caps. No limits. Just connect Clients with premium footwear and build your entries.

    Sell at least 3 pairs during December to qualify, and from there:

    1 pair sold = 1 raffle entry • 5 pairs sold = 5 entries • 10 pairs sold = 10 entries

    And so on. The more pairs you sell, the more chances you have to win.

    The Rewards

    We’ll be drawing for two major prizes for qualifying Stylists:

    #1.) A complimentary pair of Allen Edmonds shoes of your choice

    #2.) A premium Allen Edmonds shoe care kit

    And there’s more! If we collectively exceed 250 pairs sold in December, we will unlock a third winner, who will receive: An Allen Edmonds belt

    Winners

    Winners will be announced live on the Pre-Spring Kickoff Call on January 5, 2026. Once winners are announced, please connect with Deb Scanlan to confirm shoe choice, shipping details, and—if applicable—your shoe care kit or belt. Only one prize per Stylist.

    This is your opportunity to close the year strong, celebrate your success, and step into January with the classic sophistication that defines both J.Hilburn and Allen Edmonds.

    Here’s to a stylish December and a month full of big wins!

    We are pleased to share that for a limited time through the holiday season, we’ve added two new Allen Edmonds belt styles to our assortment.  Available in multiple colors and ready to ship quickly, these styles are a great offering for Clients looking for last-minute gifting or wardrobe needs.

    This offering is meant to provide you and your Clients with added flexibility during the holidays, as these belts are not custom and have a much quicker shipping window to arrive in time for the holidays.  We recommend you place Allen Edmonds orders for holiday gifting by or before December 15th, as we cannot guarantee delivery.

    These belts will be available from November 26th through December 31st.

    Allen Edmonds Wide Basic Dress Belt

    • Chili Leather
    • Navy Leather
    • Mahogany Leather
    • Black Leather
    • Coffee Leather
    AE Wide Basic Dress Belt

    Allen Edmonds Broadway Avenue Dress Casual Belt

    As we close out 2025, we’re already looking ahead to what’s next — and there’s a lot to be excited about! From updates to our events to a brand-new product flow, 2026 is shaping up to be a year full of fresh energy and new opportunities.

    Winter Event Update

    Letting you know now, our Winter Event will not take place at the end of November or the beginning of December this year. The change in cadence is one of a few we are sharing today. More information will be coming soon.

    SLS: No Sales & Leadership Summit This Year

    We’ll be taking a different approach in 2026, instead of hosting the traditional Sales & Leadership Summit, we’re putting our energy into Regional In-Market Activation Meetings. These smaller, local gatherings will give us all a chance to connect with more of you directly, share exciting updates, and collaborate on ways to grow your business right where you are. Stay tuned!

    New Year, New Product Flow

    Big news for 2026 — we’re changing up how and when product collections launch this year. Instead of a few big seasonal drops, we’ll now have six product drops throughout the year. This means more moments of “newness” to keep your Clients engaged and more reasons for you to reconnect with them again and again.

    Here’s what the 2026 product flow will look like:

    • January – Pre-Spring
    • March – Spring
    • May – Summer
    • July – Fall/Winter
    • September – Fall/Winter 2
    • November – Winter

    This new flow gives you more opportunities to showcase what’s fresh, inspire your Clients, and keep the excitement going all year long as you help to build their wardrobes. More training and support will accompany each delivery. This information is to help you begin to plan out your 2026.

    Our next Tips From the Top is scheduled for November 18th at 11:00AM CST. Please join us for a live demonstration of how to use the Stylist App during a Client appointment with our guest Stylist, Jessica Richau. Jessica will demonstrate how to guide your Client through an appointment using the tools and features available in the Stylist App.

    In the latest Simon Says, Simon explores how modern style is defined by comfort and confidence, highlighting the relaxed chino as the perfect blend of ease, precision, and personal tailoring for the way we live today. He reminds us that style today isn’t just about how you look, it’s about how you move, live, and feel.
