Individual topics included color coordination, accessorizing, furniture placement and design styles. The team plans to use the knowledge gained to provide not only the right pieces of furniture to serve as both functional and aesthetic additions to the customer’s current home setup, but also have the ability to build a room from the ground up and expand the business’ home design service.

 

“The skills and knowledge they received from the training sets them apart from other sales people,” said Foothills Amish Furniture owner, Matt Troyer. “They can help you choose the best upholstery or leather for the furniture for you home, and I am pleased to say they are ready and able to serve.”
