Furniture Training Company Annouces Reduced Pricing

Furniture World Magazine

The Furniture Training Company (FTC), the home furnishing industry’s exclusive source for Internet-delivered sales training courses for retail furniture sales associates, announced reduced pricing of up to 70% for their online furniture certification training courses just in time for the Las Vegas Market. These courses teach sales associates all about furniture product knowledge, selling furniture, and the basics of room design, etc. With a documented success rate of over 95% for increasing the furniture sales of both newly hired and experienced associates, recession pricing now makes these 21st century training resources affordable for every furniture retailer. “With this aggressive recession pricing, The Furniture Training Company is determined to assure that independent home furnishings retailers of all sizes not only survive, but thrive during this substantial downturn in the global economy. This decision, in conjunction with our release at the Las Vegas furniture market of RoomDesign for Sales Associates, a new ‘total room’ in-store sales training program, clearly positions FTC in the forefront of not only effective, but affordable training solutions for enabling furniture sales associates to sell more furniture,” said Mark Lacy, President of The Furniture Training Company. The Internet-delivered furniture training courses from FTC have received the approval of the National Home Furnishings Association, the Western Home Furnishings Association, Home Furnishings Independents Association, and other industry groups. These organizations sponser the training courses to their member retailers with additional pricing discounts. Prices for training courses after the recession pricing reduction now start as low as $29 per associate. The Internet-delivered furniture training courses from FTC make it easy for busy furniture retailers to do the sales training they know is necessary in these tough times, but just do not have the time and resources to do properly. Associates simply log into the training on the Internet anywhere, anytime and complete short, easy, interactive lessons at their own pace. Management can easily monitor each associates progress via the FTC website so that the money spent on the training is not wasted. Writes Jeff Moran, Owner, Lapeer Furniture & Mattress Center, Michigan, “E-learning programs from The Furniture Training Company have greatly increased our employee knowledge and skill levels. As they become better at their jobs, they sell more furniture, waste fewer customers visiting our store, and are more productive and efficient. Educated, well-trained sales associates are one of the main drivers we are using to continue profitability during low traffic periods.” For more information about The Furniture Training Company, or for information about the new Recession Pricing Program, call (866) 755-5996 or visit the company website at www.furnituretrainingcompany.com.
