This program creates the foundation for an ongoing training program that addresses the need at retail to qualify and sell in-home custom installation products and installation fees rather than turn them over to a separate Custom Sales Department, or undersell the customer. These retail referrals would be handled by store floor salesperson allowing for better customer service, faster reaction time and a career path for the retail sales floor. In addition, this would ease the burden on the Custom Sales Department, allowing it to handle true “custom” leads and market products and services to the builder, designer, and high profile customer targets. The initial goal would be to train two retail salespeople per showroom as IHAVS™ to allow for the immediate capability to handle custom (in-home) requests at the store level. The store managers would choose the initial candidates and also attend a one-day overview prior to the training.
