Orangeries are the best way of extending any type of home as not only do they have pleasing looks, but they will provide an area in which you can place additional furniture and optional extras such as bi folding doors. Installing our bi folding doors is the best way of providing a link between your traditional living quarters and the orangery as they offer functionality and great looks. They are easy to open and will also bring a glow into your home as they allow the sun to flood inside, meaning that you do not have to over rely on your electricity on those light and long summer nights.

Like in our conservatories, they use double glazing so that the cold will be kept out in the winter and the heat will be utilised in summer. We also provide blinds which will fit snugly on the windows and can avoid any unnecessary glares and can enhance your privacy, so that you need not worry about any nosey neighbours.

If you are currently looking to improve your home in any way, then it is always good to have a bit of advice. Book a free appointment with us and we will visit your home and provide you with the best home solutions and ideas.

Obtaining quotes
When shopping around for conservatories never accept the first quote that you receive without obtaining quotes from rival companies first. Bargaining with installers is one of the key ways of getting your new conservatory at a competitive price. Many installers will also offer a price guarantee, meaning that they will tend to match any quote offered from any of their competitors in order to obtain the work.

Choosing the right conservatory design
There is not one set type of conservatory. You will find that there are a number of different conservatories available with certain designs best suited to certain types of home. Lean-To, Victorian, Edwardian, Sun Room are just some examples, so you need to measure the area in which you would like your conservatory installed and then speak to the supplier so you can come to a decision about which will best fit.

Utilising the conservatory
You need to figure out what purpose the conservatory is going to serve. If you have a small living room then it could be turned into a second living room, alternatively it could be used as a personal gym or once you have your replacement windows installed you could use it as an area in which to grow your own plants. Similarly, orangeries can offer you even more opportunities in which to extend the space offered within your home.

One can go for stained glass conservatories as they give the modified touch. They are durable, well furnished; double glazed and one can easily get them build according to their choice. They are suitable for all the season as in winters they provide warmth and cool in summers. They give greater ventilation and catchy look to the visitors.

“March has been a record month for conservatories and double glazing, the best we have ever had.”

How many companies in the conservatories and double glazing market can say that, truthfully? So when Matthew Glover, managing director of Conservatory Outlet made the claim, was I hearing yet another double glazing salesman’s extravagant verbiage?

Matthew Glover does not fit the image of the archetypal double glazing salesman. In fact he strikes one as being unassuming, thoughtful and even cerebral, the instinct to trust this man coming out strongly. So what does he have to back up his claims, which in fairness come from Matthew as being simply conversation rather than any ‘sell’.

“Our sales are up by 25.5% for quarter 1 compared to a similar period last year,” explains Matthew. “Granted it was a poor period generally but compared to 2008, we were ahead by 47% so we are seeing consistent year on year growth.

“But March has been a record month for us; the sales leads generated through our web sites grew by 41% and our conversion rate has been excellent too; homeowners appear to be actively looking. This growth is due to retail sales through our network showrooms.”

The Internet is a key part of Conservatory Outlet’s marketing support offer for its dealers which is regarded as one of the best in the business, including as it does a full Internet provision through its own web site in addition to custom web sites for its dealers. Search engine optimisation is the key however, with continuous activity taking place to ensure Conservatory Outlet and its dealers are continually at the top of all the major search engines, usually topping all of the big national retailers. Television and other advertising support is provided, together with high quality lifestyle brochures and advertisements.

However, appointed dealers must bring something to the party, explains Matthew: “A Conservatory Outlet dealer must show us that they understand retail and are enthusiastic and ambitious. A showroom is essential as is a commitment to undertaking marketing to complement what we do for them. We provide the framework for this also however.”

Sales have grown organically and are already being compounded by a drive for new dealers to spread the reach of Conservatory Outlet nationally: “Frankly we are wasting leads as our core internet activity reaches all corners of the UK. Our latest dealer, Housemaster based in Hertfordshire, enjoyed a huge number of fresh sales leads when he joined us earlier this year and we have many other areas where we can pass on the best leads available.”

I believe him: Matthew is a very credible operator and his command of how to market and sell conservatories is very impressive, as his stats – but more importantly sales – continue to prove.

Each of our French doors are composed of hard wearing uPVC material and are double opening, meaning that on those scorching days they can be left wide open so that a soothing breeze can hit your living and dining room areas. If you have a patio area then it makes sense to have them installed as you can flit between your home and back garden if you ever fancy inviting friends and family round for a barbecue.

They can also further protect your home in addition to your windows and front and back doors, as they are installed with a multi lock mechanism which can withstand a great amount of force from the unwanted intruder. It also eliminates the chances of someone trying to break in using a crowbar. You may wonder why you would want to go French rather than go for patio doors. The main reason being is that patio doors will only slide from side to side, therefore restricting ventilation.

We provide our doors in a variety of colours and finishes from which you can choose which one you feel will most suit your home. If you cannot afford conservatories or orangeries, then such doors are a more affordable solution should you wish to do something different within your home. Call us free on 0800 915 8844 and get a free appointment booked over the phone with a member of our sales team.

You can choose to make a full day visiting Gemini Retail Park and drop into Toys R Us, Ikea, Marks & Spencers plus many many more top brands – ensuring you have a full day shopping.

Clearview installs, on average, 60 conservatories a month with a sales value of £7.5 million last year through its established branches in Leyland, Lancashire and Holmes Chapel, Cheshire. The Warrington branch opened earlier this year is confidently expected to boost the company’s sales by a further £2.5 million in its first 12 months.

Such growth would be impressive under any conditions but with conservatory sales falling off a cliff over the past three to four years, it is quite remarkable. And yet according to sales director Chris Mitchell there are no miracles behind such prodigious growth: “Sorry to disappoint you but there are no big secrets behind our success; and to use a cliché it is down to professionalism – doing what any company should be doing but, I guess, doing it very well. Our combined experience has allowed us to avoid the pitfalls and growing pains that other start ups may experience, which means of course that there has been no learning curve.”

Another key element in the company’s success, says Mitchell, is its membership from day one of the Conservatory Outlet network: “We needed a first rate marketing and promotional campaign. Obviously we had several options including of course the development of our own strategies. We also looked around the market place to see what others were doing, what was successful and of course, what was not. We were aware of Conservatory Outlet and that it was a sort of networking operation and we were very impressed with what we saw.

“It appeared to be a sort of franchise, although on closer inspection there are no fees or tie-ins and we were able to retain our own identity as well as utilising the Conservatory Outlet brand. Our commitment to Conservatory Outlet was to buy product from them – all of our windows – for which in return we could tap into what we believe is in many respects the best retail marketing operation in the UK window and conservatory business.”

Clearview supplements the marketing it receives as part of the Conservatory Outlet network with its own television advertisements and extensive promotional activity across the region, in addition to local support for each store. “We do spend a considerable amount of advertising and promotion,” says Mitchell. “Advertising still works, although the way in which we advertise and promote ourselves is very different from when I began in the industry. The Internet is now a major factor in our lead generation.”

One of the key benefits that Clearview and other network members enjoy from Conservatory Outlet is the main national web site, in addition to an individually styled and hosted site that is customised – and importantly, optimised – to their company, in their specific area. This follows the strong and clear corporate identity of Conservatory Outlet but will also carry specific messages and design elements that are specific to each network member. Much of this is provided free of charge to members of the network.

“It is not the web site itself that is the key element here; a number of companies will provide this,” explained Mitchell. “What makes the Conservatory Outlet web site so effective is the back office work that means if you type ‘conservatories’ into Google, Conservatory Outlet will consistently be one of the top names listed; few of the big national retailers do this as effectively. And, perhaps more importantly, when someone is looking a little more specifically, dropping the area into the search, then the web site of the dealer in that area will enjoy their name popping up at the top of the list for thousands of key words entered by homeowners. We get hundreds of high quality sales leads from this.”

Installation boss Andy Ross says that the sales leads translate to better business and more satisfied customers: “Because many of the people that come to us through an Internet search have carried out a lot of research as part of the process, they are better informed and understand the key issues better. Our installation process is structured, using installers that are the best in the business and we communicate what is happening and when it is happening. And this all leads to very happy customers, who tell their friends and family. Again,” adds Ross, “this is a traditional approach but applied very effectively.”

The showrooms themselves are also a key part of the Conservatory Outlet dealer network requirement. Clearview’s latest is located on a large retail park in Warrington, surrounded with such retail giants as Toys ‘R’ Us in addition to a host of other home improvement outlets, such as tile centres. With a large car park it is destination shopping at its best. An investment of £150,000 has ensured that there is plenty for the visiting homeowner to become excited about, with interiors that are inspiring in themselves to offer Mr and Mrs Jones plenty to get the creative juices flowing for their stylish end of terrace, or the Ponsonby-Smythes for their country seat.

New styles abound, including examples of Orangeries with both brick and preformed pilasters. Ultraframe’s intriguing ‘Verandah’ is also to be found as well as the ever popular bi fold doors, something that Conservatory Outlet has recently begun manufacturing.

The objective therefore is very simple: all efforts are directed at driving traffic to the showrooms because once there, any reasonably interested homeowners will have difficulty in walking away. And with Conservatory Outlet’s market-beating online effectiveness and, in the North of England at least, regular television advertising, it is an unbeatable package. That there is no premium charged by Conservatory Outlet for such powerful marketing is extraordinary.

Says Mitchell: “It was a no brainer to use Conservatory Outlet when we began Clearview simply as our investment went into the first showroom and infrastructure. But now we have a choice, we could market ourselves quite comfortably. But why would we when we have the best marketing package in the country, free of charge?”
