extendoshop



To my husband, books are a necessity in a civilized society. And for a society to escape poverty, it must foster a value for learning and reading books. Michael has piles of books. When the piles get too large, he finally sells some on eBay or takes them to Powell's or just gives them away.

He has a fascination with bookcases and when Denis Rosmi emailed him about extendoshop, he called me over to take a look at their creative book cases. They fit most any ceiling height and can be used as a semi-permanent room divider in a condo or loft.





The main goal of the extendo design team is to offer products with a high design, technical and functional content, using only the highest quality materials with a low environmental impact (the materials can all be recycled).

The systems are not inexpensive, however they are fun, good looking and have a lightness about them.

The 3/50 Project



Cinda Baxter has come up with a great idea: The 3/50 Project.

�We ask consumers to think about which three stores they'd miss if they disappeared, then remind them to return there,� explains Baxter. �Shoppers have become so rooted in thinking about the essentials that they've forgotten about the little gift store on the corner whose owner remembers their name.�

�Fifty comes from the idea that if even half the employed population spent a mere $50 per month in locally owned retail stores, those purchases would generate more than $42.6 billion in revenue,� she continues. �That's a huge impact for a relatively small investment.�

Which leads to a third number on the flyer, sixty-eight�the dollar amount that remains in a community's economy for every $100 spent in locally owned stores. By contrast, only $43 per one hundred remains local when spent in national chains; little or no revenue results from online purchases.
If you are a retailer you can print a flyer that you can hand out to your customers, friends and acquaintances that explains the project and encourages them to support their local retail stores.

NHFA Announces New Consumer Website to Help Boost Sales in Home Furnishings

The National Home Furnishings Association will launch Homefurnishings.com, its new Web portal, this fall. This is expected to provide an opportunity for home furnishing retailers across the U.S. and Canada to boost their sales through the Web.

Launching the new website will come with a national online furniture sweepstakes promotion to initially generate consumer traffic. This will be followed by a national media and online campaign starting January, 2010.
"Our goal is to influence consumers to view home furnishings as a necessary part of their lives and spur business for the whole industry," says NHFA Chairman Doug Kays. He furthered that aside from helping consumers find furnishings that matches their tastes and lifestyles, more importantly, it will let them find a "certified Homefurnishings.com retailer" that will provide them the products they want as well as the level of service that they are expecting.

Proceeds from the website will be used to conduct a nationwide ad campaign which will guide consumers to HomeFurnishings.com and also to Certified Homefurnishings.com retailers. Certified retailers will pay a fraction of their sales to cover the costs for national media campaigns.

Informational seminars about the program are scheduled on April 26 and 27, 2009 at 9 am., 11 a.m., and 2 p.m. at the new Retailer Resource Center on the first floor of Plaza Suites. These seminars will point out helpful strategies for retailers on how to reach their goals of increasing website traffic resulting to sales increase.

Chairman Doug Kays says that although they don't require reservations for the seminar, space, however, is limited.
