The Englander “Sell In” Advantage
Technology As a leader in sleep technology, Englander is always at the forefront of the mattress industry, using state-of-the-art sleep surfaces, cores and materials to develop innovative, exclusive, patent-pending sleep systems and related products. These innovations in product design will allow you to capitalize on outstanding merchandising and marketing opportunities. Margin At Englander we build your brand, not our brand. That’s why we put our money into developing better products, instead of into national advertising budgets. At every price point, a sleep system from Englander will provide a substantially better value for your customer than comparable models available elsewhere, while preserving high margins. Distribution We know how important it is for you to have control over the product and pricing on your sales floors. If your mattress line is over distributed or your supplier doesn’t provide programs specifically for your business, control can be difficult to maintain. At Englander we will develop a merchandising program for you that is unique and cannot be cross-shopped in your marketplace. Our flexibility and innovative branding programs will provide you with the secure distribution you need to maximize sales and margins.

The Englander “Sell Through” Advantage
An integral part of many of our customized dealer bedding programs is the development of a unique private brand. Private branding has enabled many of our retailers partners to increase profit margins and eliminate cross-shopping for higher closing ratios. Englander has proven expertise in this area, successfully branding private sleep product lines for brick and mortar dealers with local, regional, national, and international distribution, plus providing products for e-commerce enterprises. Branding Let us put our in-house marketing expertise to work for you. We understand that developing the right product mix is only one step in putting a comprehensive bedding program together. At Englander, our in-house marketing team will work with you in designing the display and advertising materials you need to effectively show the products on your floor and communicate to your customers. Marketing Support doesn’t stop with our sleep systems - that’s just where it begins. You’ll have a dedicated Englander account team to handle all the details. Your account team will customize sales training seminars, analyze your product sales work with our in-house marketing team on special promotions, and more. We are here to address all of your needs, providing you with an outstanding level of service. Sales & Training Support
