    Default Simplicity Sofas Announces 0% off Furniture Sale!!!

    Yes, It's Absolutely True! Simplicity Sofas, the only American furniture manufacturer specializing in Furniture for Small Spaces and Tight Places, selling direct to consumers is offering a Very Special 0% Off Sale on the entire line of over 100,000 different products. So rush right over to our website http://www.simplicitysofas.com or call us at 800-813-2889 and order your Free Catalog and Free Fabric Swatches so you won't miss out.

    Choose any of our 100,000+ products and our skilled North Carolina craftspeople will custom-build your furniture one piece at a time in 30 days or less and ship it right to your door by UPS.

    Many customers have been asking us, "How can you offer 0% off on your entire line when all the other furniture dealers are advertising 50% off or No Money Down, No Interest, and No Payments for the next 10 years?



    Up until now we really didn't have a good answer for those skeptics other than we get easily confused if we have to keep changing prices and that all of our salespeople are wimps who always give in when they're asked if we'll honor last month's (or next month's) sale price.



    This week, however, we finally figured it out. In three consecutive days:

    • Simplicity Sofas received a 3 page "mention" in a newly published Marketing book that will soon appear on several business book best seller lists. (Keep reading for more information about the book.)

    • The owner of Simplicity Sofas was invited to write a guest article for WordofMouth.org, a blog with 35,000 subscribers. (A link to the article is listed below.)

    • Simplicity Sofas was featured in a 3 minute segment by WFMY TV, a CBS affiliate covering a substantial portion of North Carolina. (The link is listed below.)

    All of that stuff followed two appearances on the Man Cave TV show appearing on the DIY Network. (For one of the appearances we built a 17 ft. x 11 ft. sectional with 12 seats for a 300+ lb. ex-professional football player with lots of "big" friends. It had to fit down a 27 inch wide stairway with a bend at the bottom.)

    Anyway, all of that stuff got us thinking about the reasons why Simplicity Sofas is able to offer its customers Genuine Certified 0% Off Sales when no other furniture company can. It's really pretty amazing, particularly for a company that opened its doors exactly 3 weeks before the official start of the Recession. If you keep on reading you'll see extremely strange and amazing things that no other furniture company has ever done before.

    By the way, if anyone is worried about missing out on this Special 0% Sale there is no reason to panic. We have been running this sale every month since November, 2007 and it is currently scheduled at least through the end of 2020.

    Time out for a video of a 7 year old girl putting together one of our sectional units all by herself in less than 1 minute. (If you keep going further there's another link to a video showing an 8 year old boy assembling a sofa all by himself in less than 5 minutes.)



    What's So Different About Simplicity Sofas?

    Jeanne Bliss, one of the country's best known "customer experience" experts, co-founder and director of the CXPA (Customer Experience Professionals Association) and a best-selling author, consultant and speaker has named Simplicity Sofas to her short list of what she calls her “Beloved Companies.”

    These are the companies she feels are the absolute best in the country at creating and retaining loyalty from their customers. Members of this elite group include: Zappos, USAA, L.L. Bean, Wegman’s, Southwest Airlines and also -- Simplicity Sofas.

    Here is a quote from one of Jeanne’s many articles (referring to her best-selling book I Love You More Than My Dog):

    “One of the great adopters of these five decisions is a beloved small business called Simplicity Sofas. The owner Jeff Frank is a zealot about how he will and will not guide his company toward growth – and they are adopting every one of the five decisions. In a depressed marketplace (especially for the furniture industry) their results are astounding.”

    Abe Abbas, a 30 year veteran of the furniture industry and editor of the About.com furniture blog (owned by the New York Times) has written:

    "First of all, I would like to say that the entire furniture industry should learn from your company. This level of customer service just makes for a great over all experience for the customer."

    Cale Johnson, editor and VP of GasPedal and Word of Mouth.org. (Quote #1)
    “We’ve featured you guys now a couple times (once on WordofMouth.org and once in Andy’s “Damn, I Wish I’d Thought of That!” newsletter) because we really dig the way you earn the respect and recommendation of your customers – you do inspiring stuff.
    …Would you be interested in contributing a guest post to WordofMouth.org? We think you have great ideas on how great customer service can lead to great referrals, and I think folks could learn a lot from what you do.”


    Cale Johnson, editor and VP of GasPedal and Word of Mouth.org. (Quote #2)
    “We get a lot of guest posts, but this is definitely one of the best, most helpful, and most educational I’ve seen. Excited to feature it!"
    Cale

    Erin Verbeck, CEO of The Joy of Marketing and co-author of the recent book Worth Every Penny, Build a Business That Thrills Your Customers and Still Charge What You’re Worth, Greenleaf Press, 2012 has devoted 3 pages of the book to Simplicity Sofas.

    In an email to Simplicity Sofas Erin wrote: “Your perspective, I felt, was the strongest example in the book as far as customer service goes. Our academic reader noted that as well.”

    Time for a short rest and too look at another pretty picture. This sofa and love seat have slipcovers. There's only a little bit more.

    I think we may also have broken the world's record for the "longest" furniture ad ever.
