The Wellness Revolution






Currently there is an overall trend toward the wellness market including fitness, healthcare, beauty products and beauty services.

In the USA the estimate is that the overall wellness market, not just promotional, is a $500 billion industry with experts projecting this will triple over the next 5 years.

The wellness industry includes products and services provided not to just the un-healthy, but proactively to already healthy people to help make them feel even healthier, to slow the effects of aging, and look even better.

With more people paying closer attention to the quality of the food and drink they purchase, consumers are also keen to learn how wellness products can help achieve overall health & well-being with a wide range of fitness, healthcare & beauty products an appealing option for those wishing to live healthier lives while looking and feeling better.

The demand for healthcare products within the promotional industry spans across the need for personal daily needs to healthcare professionals and providers. Each has its particular needs and functions, and the demand for a variety of promotional products to communicate, keep in touch and keep track of provider-patient relationships and progress and the promotional product industry offers a variety of solutions with promotional products that go from generic to specific.

The 'Brand' National



Bio Labs do ‘The Brand National’

As most of you will already be aware the Grand National is this Saturday so I have managed to rally most of the team together to take part in a sweepstake.
Unfortunately since we are all so good at our jobs there are only 10 of us needed in the office which makes the prospect of a sweepstake rather difficult!

We each have 6 horses that we will be rooting for tomorrow to win a possible jackpot of £24! If you try to contact the winner on Monday morning you may have difficulty as they will be off touring car showrooms contemplating where to spend their winnings!

We hope that any of you betting on the race tomorrow have good luck and that your horse actually makes it to the starting line and the finish line (a fantastic achievement within itself).
This year’s race hopes to provide us with the first female winning jockey and since we are in an office dominated by women we are hoping that she places well to prove that women can drive horses just as well as men, so long as they haven’t introduced a new feature of the race where you reverse park your horse into the stable at the end.

Let’s also hope that Shakalakaboomboom isn’t too near the front else the commentator won’t have enough time to mention any of the other horses and no-one will know who actually wins.
Let us know which horses you are willing on tomorrow in your office sweepstake if you are involved in one.

All the best from the Bio Labs team.

Trade Only Spring Roadshows




It’s been a busy week this week at Bio Laboratories, both for Ian on his road trip of Trade Only Spring road shows and for the sales team in the office with a lot of enquiries about the new credit card sized dental floss and a large number of orders being processed and shipped out for month end.
Ian is keen to give a ‘shout-out’, like any other avid Radio 1 listener, to those that organized the shows and all the customers that attended them and made his trips worthwhile.
We estimate that Ian covered around 860 miles over the 4 shows, travelling between Manchester, Doncaster, Glasgow and Slough. It’s a good job this was before the planned strikes were announced, springing a frenzy of panic fuel buying – either that or everyone has been rushing to the petrol stations to get their warm sausage rolls before they go up by 20%!
We hear they may be a shortage on branded hand sanitisers in the coming weeks – jerry cans at the ready!

Marketing Position Filled




Following Hayley's decision to not return to the Bio Labs family earlier this year after the birth of her little boy Charlie so that she can be closer to home we are pleased to announce that Jamie will be stepping into her shoes on the marketing side - not literally her high heels, but her marketing position.

Jamie has been with Bio Labs for just over a year already, having joined us from one of our customers JD Williams. Whilst many of our promotional customers will not have dealt with Jamie yet, he has been working tirelessly on stock control for our Home Shopping customers like Shop Direct, Very, JD Williams and Freeman's bringing our stock management system up to date on a huge range of branded fragrances, cosmetics and toiletries from suppliers like OPI, Burts Bees and Fake Bake. This has helped us more than double the amount of lines we offer to our catalogue customers.


Now everything is running smoothly and with extra time on his hands (more than he can use to tweak his fantasy football team) it is the perfect time to let him start using his Advertising degree and creative skills and help drive marketing forward, so watch out for plenty of new press releases, new product launches and even more striking exhibition graphics and stands than ever before.
