Well April has come and is now almost gone, so spring is officially here. So, your customers have one thing on their minds right now… Spring Cleaning. Now, I am going to bet that most people reading this blog aren’t disinfectant and cleaning supplies businesses. Nope, most of you are designing a rustic retreat or trying to promote your rustic furniture store. Either way, that puts us all in the same boat – desiring to successfully promote rustic furniture, more specifically, eco-friendly rustic teak furniture.
Spring Cleaning… What a concept.
If you are like me, the idea of spring cleaning is exhilarating to the point where my family things I am just plain weird. (Then again, you probably aren’t like me.)
Then there are those of you who take on the cleaning because you have too.
And then finally, there are those of you who simply enjoy spring’s coming and going without a single thought of cleaning. So, in the end we all fall into one of these categories when it comes to spring cleaning.
But let’s talk about where you come in as a dealer whether retail, commercial or designer. The idea of spring cleaning can work to your advantage if you know how to attract the buyer. Of course your store isn’t full of various types of bleaches and cleaners but you do offer something that they want and may not realize until they overhaul their home.
Once people have begun and completed spring cleaning they begin to realize how much potential their home and outdoor living spaces have to offer. Before they attempted to tackle the house, it was cramped and a mess. But now it is pristine, and well, frankly in need of something new.
And that’s where you come in to the picture.
