What’s the Furniture Industry’s Message to Consumers?
Chances are if you are familiar with furniture stores, you’ve undoubtedly seen the windows plastered with brightly colored signs that read “price reduction,” “no interest,” or “no down payments.”
For years, the furniture industry has bragged about the “no, no, no”, but has that hurt the image of furniture?

Quinn is Watching…
Ozark—a great Netflix show about a financial planner who relocates his family to the Ozarks. I won’t give anything away, but a Mexican drug lord is involved.

Doug is Reading….
“Think Again: The Power Of Knowing What You Don’t Know.” by Adam Grant. It’s remarkable! Do you know what you don’t know?
Fun & Folly
Need more dad jokes? What do you call a fake noodle? An impasta! Don’t worry, there are more where that came from.

Competitive art used to be an Olympic sport.
Soulmates. Tinder made a match…in Antarctica! Swipe right with those cold hands.
Foot Traffic Drivers
Need helping getting more people to your store?
Here’s an idea…
When Warby Parker opened a store in Melrose, California in 2017, it created a green room where people could try on Warby Parker frames in front of a variety of backgrounds and film themselves. It drove traffic into the stores and created free promotional opportunities for the company to use online.
Use your imagination and create fun, interactive experiences in your space that attract customers. Or, set up a rental space that people can reserve for wedding showers, baby showers, and more! Create 2-3 unique looks and charge people to use your set-up.
On the hunt for more foot-traffic-driving ideas?
Pick up a copy of Kinsley and Quinn’s #1 Amazon bestselling book, “Come Back to Bed: Attract More Foot Traffic and Make People Fall in Love with Your Store.”
