Where things stand this fall

Our retailers are writing fill-ins right now

Our retailers’ shops are full right now in preparation for the fourth quarter, so what they are writing are smaller fill-ins that ship quickly.

Small, giftable pieces with their own countertop display fit that well, and the rest of this page is built around it: what has run for Amy Catherine Designs so far, what is coming in October, and what is still open to you.

Five places Amy Catherine Designs has shown up

01

Amy Catherine Designs joins the front page of purchasingpowerplus.com, where a member browsing for something new lands first.

Scheduled · October 2026

02

PPP social media

Scheduled · October 2026

03

Network News, Introducing

Your place in the New to the Network section of the newsletter that goes to every retail member. It lives on our site and stays there, so a buyer who is not shopping gifts this month can still find you when she is.

Scheduled · October 2026

How this works

What we do, and what only you can do

Our part

We are a buying network, not a rep group. We do not carry a bag, work a territory, or write orders on your behalf. What we do is put Amy Catherine Designs in front of independent and hospital gift shops that already trust us, over and over, in the places they actually look. Five times already, in your first month. That is access and credibility, delivered on a schedule.

Your part

The order gets written when a buyer and a brand build a relationship. That part is yours, and we hand you everything you need for it: the member list every month, a flyer any month you want to say something specific, and the opportunities below. The brands that do best here are the ones who pick that up and run.

Still open to you

More ways to reach our buyers

Each of these is open to Amy Catherine Designs now, and each one puts your brand in front of our buyers again before spring.

01

The Flyer Program

Send a one page flyer and we put it in front of members in that month’s digital mailing and in the member Flyer Library. A holiday collection, a reorder offer, a new display. Monthly, bi-monthly or quarterly, whichever you want.

Included

02

Quarterly Perks & Promos

Your best seasonal offer, in the section buyers open when they are looking for something to act on right now, which is exactly how they are buying this fall.

No cost

03

Our 2027 Atlanta Event

Thursday, January 14, during Atlanta Market. For one morning, hospital and pharmacy gift shop retailers gather in one room to see what is new. They mark the vendors they plan to visit in our Digital Event Guide ahead of time, and your showroom is featured beside your listing. Tables are limited to 40.

Classic $650 · Registration opens October 1

The one most brands overlook

You already have our member list. Use it.

The full retail member directory comes to you every month, refreshed as new stores join. You do not have to wait to be found. You can email those buyers directly, or pick up the phone and call them.

This is the piece brands underuse most. We can put Amy Catherine Designs in front of a buyer again and again, and we will, but we cannot build the relationship for you. No placement on our site moves as fast as a founder picking up the phone.

Every store on it already knows PPP, already buys from our vendors, and already gets your discount. That is a warm list, not a cold one.

What to do with it this week

  • Pull the hospital gift shops first. They are your buyer.
  • Send a short note naming PPP and your 10%. It opens the door.
  • Mention the Always Choose Joy pocket charms and display. They are easy to picture on a gift shop counter.
  • Call the ones who do not reply. A $200 opening is an easy yes on the phone.
  • Lead with an at once offer. That is what she is buying in autumn.

In writing, once

The timing, so you can plan around it

These dates do not move. They are the same for every brand in the network, which is what makes them possible to hold.

Five placements in your first month. October is next.

Orders are always a bit slower this time of year, since our retailers’ shops are full in preparation for the fourth quarter. That is exactly why we keep your exposure running rather than letting it stop.

Between now and the January markets, the brands that come out ahead are the ones a buyer can say yes to quickly. Pick up the member list, send a flyer, and Amy Catherine Designs goes into January as a name our retailers already recognize.
