Franchise Description
Design Stores give discriminating customers three things they rarely find when shopping for home furnishings - wide selection, access to diverse merchandise, and personalized service. DOTI sells upholstered furniture, case goods, accessories, lighting, custom window treatments, rugs, wallcoverings, and more - without carrying large inventories. Other retailers cannot compete with our diverse selection and personalized design services. Stores are 4,000-5,000 square feet in size and are located in upscale areas where homes valued at $300,000+ are commonplace. NO INDUSTRY EXPERIENCE is required to own a Design Store. The creative Design Consultants are your employees and are those working with customers. Multiple Design Store development is possible with our innovative Master Franchise opportunity.
Training & Support
DOTI`s award-winning support system provides all of the training and ongoing tools necessary to run your Design Store(s). Initial training is both at Corporate Headquarters and on-site - at your store. Whether it`s the introduction of the home furnishings industry or the merchandising of your new store, DOTI leaders will be there with you. In addition, site selection support is done on-site, to ensure the best possible decision is made on each Design Store location. Phase II of training involves the Grand Opening support and implementation. This is an exciting time, so every detail is important - right down to the news releases, advertising, and proven local marketing programs designed by DOTI for new store openings. If you feel that this may be a potential fit with your business model, we look forward to hearing from you to begin the process of sharing information.
