Blog → Prerequisites for a Successful Furniture Store

Furniture business is a major attraction to first-time business folk because of the high profit margins. And if you think about it, a furniture retail store is one of the biggest, most lucrative businesses out there.

But then why is it that all of us have seen a furniture store pop up in our neighborhoods, at one time of another, and then promptly proceed to closing down a few months down the line?

While there is no single formula to the success of a business store, some things are common among successful furniture sellers who manage to stand the test of time.

As experts in wholesale furniture, we have worked with thousands of furniture sellers across USA and Canada and contributed to their success and longevity. Here's what we suggest all new furniture sellers should focus on:

Learn More about the Market

Find out what your customers need from high quality wholesale furniture? What are their design and style aspirations? Attract their attention and talk to them where they are present. Advertise in ways others don't usually think of, i.e. giving seminars, working with community centers, handing out fliers about European style furniture, etc.

These tactics have worked for many of our wholesale furniture buyers in the past.

Set Up Shop

Whether you are selling online, in store or attacking the market on both fronts, make sure that your furniture catalogue is perfectly visible in the best possible light. Everything else takes backseat.

The furniture must be arranged beautifully and the store/website must be arranged to make browsing easier. The ordering/buying process should be as quick and painless as possible as well.

Carry Quality Wholesale Furniture

There is no doubt that high quality furniture is what attracts buyers, while your sales skills help retain buyers, making them customers for life. Your advertising, selling and social skills might be on point, but if prospective buyers don't like what they see in your catalogue, then nothing can save the furniture store.

So invest in high quality furniture and furnishings for your store, and build a reputation for providing the absolute best money can buy. Continuously update your collection depending on the time of the year and customers tastes. Offer them variety and they'll keep coming back for more!
