Summer time is also prime time for real estate. Properties will require staging, and with that, more furniture & home décor products will also be required. Do you have all the inventory you need? Can you rely on your vendors to deliver when needed? Most importantly, are you making the margins you want?
CONGRATULATIONS! You’ve closed on a home staging deal. Your next steps are crucial – staging the property with home furnishing pieces that will get the property sold, becoming another successful statistic of properties that have sold faster and/or at higher-than-asking price.
DO YOU KNOW WHERE YOU’LL GET YOUR INVENTORY FROM?
Local furniture stores are an option…but not an ideal one. It means spending a lot more time traveling from store to store, shopping around, and getting stressed. You will also be paying retail prices and waiting weeks to get the items delivered.
Online retailers and marketplaces are also an option. They may offer delivery quicker than the local furniture stores, but again it means paying retail like consumers do. Besides, how can you be sure that what you ordered is what you are going to get?
Importers or distributers are an obvious option. They can be cheaper than the previous options, but how do you find them? Once you find them, they will only deal with you only if you are a well-known. Assuming they will work with you, the payment terms they offer may put you in negative cashflow. You definitely don’t want that! You will find that you are spending a lot of time looking through their catalogs, browsing for products. When you’re ready to place an order, and assuming you meet their minimum order requirements, you may be told that items are out of stock. Since selections are limited and there are no alternatives you will likely be left high and dry. And last, but not least, you will likely be responsible for managing the logistics of your deliveries. Ugh!
WHAT CAN YOU DO? IS THERE ANOTHER WAY?
What if there were a way to search for products online, taking up less time, at significantly reduced prices and without your clients knowing how much you paid? What if there were a way to get it delivered within a few days and knowing exactly what’s in stock, and what is not, so you don’t waste time re-ordering? What if you did not have to deal with the nightmare of logistics, but it was automatically done for you?
There is a BETTER way! We started HomeRoots because of it. We felt that there was a gap in the industry between the trade and home furnishing distributers/wholesalers. We wanted to bring, to our customers, a seamless experience like that for customers of online retailers, who have been shopping online for over a decade.
WWW.HOMEROOTS.CO is a secure, gated B2B platform from which other Home Stagers, like yourself, have already purchased. HomeRoots is the Home Stagers platform that makes it easier to do business and work with your clients. It enables you to share products of interest with your clients without them seeing the pricing. Since HomeRoots does not sell direct to consumers, your clients will never know how much you paid for the products you used to stage their homes. This will allow you to set up your margins the way you want and increase your profit for your business.
With no minimum order requirements, most orders typically ship within days. We display the lead-time to ship on the product page as well as on our product sheet so you know how long it will take for delivery even before you place the order.
