Salesman at two of Conservatory Outlet’s regional dealerships are celebrating after beating off competition from other salesman within the network to land the individual titles of 2011 Conservatory Outlet Top Dog.
Jim Oliver of Lincolnshire-based James Oliver Conservatories collected his trophy and cash prize for delivering the greatest number of combined sales of conservatories, double glazing, doors and other products within the entire network. Nick Trigg of Mid Wales Windows & Conservatories took the honours in the category solely dedicated to replacement windows and double glazing.
The concept of Top Dog was created as Conservatory Outlet wanted to give their teams of sales men and women more of a major motivation to increase the number of sales they bring in.
As well as this year-long competition, Conservatory Outlet also hands out monthly awards to sales people for attracting the ‘Largest Window Order’ and ‘Largest Conservatory Order’.
A total of 8 out of Conservatory Outlet’s 19 dealers took part in the annual competition with the final top ten comprising representatives from 5 different companies – a testament to the strength of the network. The total sales of everyone who took park in the competition this year approached a whopping £30m and most impressively 13 salesmen individually managed to pass the £1m mark.
Conservatory Outlet is hopeful that the 2012 competition will attract a few new entrants to increase competition and keep everyone on their toes.

Bosses at double glazing company Conservatory Outlet who organised a dedicated ‘Stop Smoking Day’ for their employees have reported that several members of staff have already managed to kick their regular nicotine fix.
Held last Thursday at the Rapid Solicitors Stadium, the home of Rugby League giants Wakefield Trinity Wildcats, the all-day event was hosted by Easyway who introduce smokers to tried and tested methods of kicking their smoking habit.
Around 25 members of staff attended, each determined to make 2012 a smoke-free year in their lives. With just the aid of a whiteboard, employees of the double glazing firm took on board everything passed onto them by their Easyway representative with great results.
Following the event, several members of the conservatories team managed to go out last weekend drinking with friends and family without needing a cigarette. ‘Fag’ breaks taken by staff during work hours has also ceased thanks to the initiative.
Conservatory Outlet is delighted with how well the event has been received by staff as they have received an enormous amount of positive feedback from personnel. It has also encouraged them to fund further staff-related initiatives in the future as they believe events such as this help make workers feel more valued and appreciated.

The Wakefield offices of Conservatory Outlet, the country’s no.1 home improvement company, are currently being updated and refurbished to help facilitate future growth over the coming years.
As the leading trade fabricator of double glazing, triple glazing windows, doors and conservatories, Conservatory Outlet realised the importance of ensuring that their head office was representative of their impressive product range and brand. They believe their new-look workplace will help them achieve this overarching goal.
Employees of the double glazing experts will also benefit from the office re-fit as working conditions have been improved substantially and a brand new canteen has been added so that staff can lunch on site in a location conducive to dining.
The office revamp has been completed by local long-standing Conservatory Outlet network member West Yorkshire Windows.
Like the thousands of installations they and Conservatory Outlet have carried out over the years, West Yorkshire Windows have made sure that energy efficiency is of the upmost priority.
UPVC windows with an energy rating of ‘C’ and above have been fitted throughout the premises along with other appropriate insulating measures to ensure that the building is as environmentally-friendly as possible.
Completion of the project is expected to come to a conclusion in the next couple of weeks.

Does your home suffer with constant draughts and cold air passing through it? If it does then it is the last thing you need at this time of the year when temperatures are at their lowest. It is also safe to presume that you still have single glazed windows installed as it is either a traditional property or one which has simply been built with little regard for energy efficiency.
Upgrading your existing windows to double glazing will be something that will benefit all the family as your property will never have felt so warm, nor looked so good. The heat insulation a new set of windows provides is far more reliable than that offered by a window which may be more than past its use-by date.
Old windows and doors are most commonly the chief reason why so much heat is lost from the home, something which is both damaging to the environment and your finances. Therefore you can see why replacement windows are so highly recommended as they can save you a tremendous amount of money.
Your heating will no longer need to be left running for hours on end as you can rely upon a new set of windows to trap any warm air created by your boiler. This will bring down the current cost of your energy bills by a considerable amount and help lower the number of carbon emissions that are able to leave your home.
Finding a window to suit your home couldn’t be easier as there are now a whole host of different designs on the market. Each one holds its own individual character whether it be a sash window or tilt and turn version.
Fancy something to complement your windows in terms of beauty? Conservatories are always a good choice at this time of year.

On 5th January 2012, Wakefield home improvement company Conservatory Outlet will be hosting a special ‘Stop Smoking Day’ for 20-30 of its employees.
As the leading supplier of conservatories and double glazing in the UK they know how important it is to have a fit and healthy workforce. The initiative, which is fully funded by Conservatory Outlet, aims to reward staff and encourage them to lead a healthier lifestyle in the New Year and beyond.
The inspiration for this special one-off event came after one of the directors of the business went on a course lead by EasyWay (http://www.theeasywaytostopsmoking.com/ ) outside of work and successfully stopped smoking. They are hoping that with the help of Conservatory Outlet and Easyway many others will be encouraged to follow suit.
Clearview Home Improvements, Warrington Showroom
Easyway was founded by London-born Allen Carr who quit smoking after 33 years as a hundred-a-day chain smoker. Since then the Easyway method has helped millions of smokers across the globe to stop smoking and escape from nicotine addiction.
According to the NHS around 21% of the UK population smokes and although the number of people with a nicotine habit has decreased sharply over the past 20-30 years there is still a lot of work to be done to bring that figure down further.
The ‘Stop Smoking Day’ will be hosted by Conservatory Outlet at the home of Rugby League side Wakefield Trinity Wildcats and attended by all office staff/factory staff/ sales staff at the orangery firm.

One of the UK’s leading home improvement company’s Conservatory Outlet along with network member 5 Star Windows have recently become sponsors of Aviva Rugby Premiership side Worcester Warriors.
5 Star Windows, a Worcester-based firm who supply high-quality conservatories and double glazing to homeowners in the Midlands, were extremely keen to show their support for the local Rugby Union side that have been existence since the 1870’s.
The name and logos of 5 Star Windows and Conservatory Outlet will be proudly displayed around the perimeter of the touchline at Sixways Stadium for the 18 domestic fixtures the club will be hosting this season.
The ground is open seven days a week, 52 weeks of the year for a variety of rugby conferences and events so the hoardings are certain to be viewed by a huge number of people.
The sponsorship deal will give Worcester Warriors the further much-needed investment they need in order to be able to compete against reigning champions Saracens and the other remaining 10 sides, in a league where they currently find themselves in 11th position.
It also gives both conservatory specialists an opportunity to increase brand awareness amongst property owners in the Worcestershire region, an area where there is already a very healthy appetite for home improvements.
5 Star Windows already have an impressive showroom situated on Stanklyn Lane in Kidderminster and are widely viewed as being the leading force for home improvements in the Midlands.
