Everyone wants that perfect floor. Some have been promised the perfect floor, and others can actually come close to the perfect floor. Lifetime guarantee and warrantee's from flooring product to installation can be very appealing depending where one may go or see in an marketing flyer.
I have been in the flooring industry since 1998 and there is some very disturbing practices out there. No this is not only our industry, but it's about time to put the brakes on some of these's practices. Let me give you some examples.
$37 Home Carpet Install
$100 Off Carpet Coupon
Save $100 Off Your Next Floor
Lifetime Carpet Cleaning with Purchase
$97 Carpet Installation

That's just a sample, and some would say it's quite fine. To me it is Marketing Trickery. I would never install flooring for $37 or $97, and if I needed to one would be tempted to cut corners. Myself personally I have a conscience. The installers are pushed into installing flooring at rates the store set's. Then of course the installation is billed out higher if not the flooring. These installers are caught up into do it or quit. I haven't even started with the laws that are being broken. If one is told to be somewhere and you will be paid XXX amount, you are considered a employee by most states. It's a dog eat dog world, yeah I heard that. No it's called step on everyone you can to get to the top no matter what.
To Good To Be True is inspired by being the installer, retailier, marketer, customer, and I'm going Truman!
Going Truman, yes true to client, installer, self, and family.
Truman Floor Covering & Design brings you true discount pricing on your flooring. If so, why? The sale starts with you. May I call you family? What would you charge family? Looking back in my earlier retail years I notice I gained more relationships when I treated everyone as familly. That was another business in another name and I had no family there. I am accepting new family if you like it or not, and I will charge like family.
I do this for the installer that needs to be paid what he deserves. I do this for my familly (YOU) since I owe very little to anyone. Remember that perfect floors start with familly and other things I will touch on in the future.
I will reveal secrects of maintance, product durability, and installation in the future.
Please don't let them oversell maintenance, beneifits, waranties and under deliver.
Give me a call with no obligation for free information, I may not answer personally or immediately. Leave a message, I will call you back. 712-292-5433
