Selling blinds and fly screens can be a great standalone business or way to add revenue to an existing venture. However what we find puts most people off is the lack of knowledge and samples to show their potential customers.
This is exactly why at the Better Blind Company we have spent the last six months building a great resource for people who want to become trade resellers. We have built a dedicated mailing list, trade website and trade start up pack.
The start-up pack consists of a variety of samples and fabric books for all of our most popular products.
Start-up Pack Contents:
Roman Blind Sample Book, Pleated Blind Sample Book, Vertical & Roller Blind Combined Sample Book, Perfect Fit Blind Sample, Insect Screen Sample, Aluminium Blind Sample Deck, Wooden Blind Sample Deck (Free Hanging), Wooden Blind Sample Deck (Perfect Fit)
We also offer additional fabric books for other ranges such as our Contract Fabric Book and Woodweave Sample Book.
If you would like a detailed look at the start-up pack we have a dedicated page for it which you can view here: Trade Start up Sample Pack
Separate Items
In case you don’t want the complete trade start-up pack you can also buy individual items from our sales aids page. However, by buying the Trade Start-up Sample Pack, you will benefit from a lower package price!

What is “fabric size”?
If you are buying a roller blind from us online you will be presented with three options once you have entered your measurements: recess size, exact blind size and fabric size.
When would I choose fabric size?
Roller blinds are the only product with the fabric size option.
Fabric size is most commonly chosen when the customer knows the exact size of the fabric they need to cover a recess and are looking to fit the blind outside the recess.
What’s the difference between Exact Blind Size and Fabric Size?
It is very important to understand the difference between exact blind size and fabric size otherwise you may end up with a blind too big or too small for your window.
When we talk about width in terms of fabric size we are referring to the width of the fabric not the blind.
When you order “fabric size” the exact width of the blind is on average about 39mm wider than the fabric. This is the space taken up by the brackets and raising mechanism.
Still not sure?
As the difference between fabric size and exact blind size is differs between the different roller blinds in our range, we recommend that you contact our office on 0161 367 9013 if this measurement is critical to you.
