About Us
There's just no place like home to make important
decorating decisions. It works better for you!
As founders of Carpet Network, Lenny and Christine learned this
simple truth while helping their customers make good decisions for
their homes back in the late 1980's. At that time they owned a very
successful floor covering store. They began to notice how difficult
it was for their customers to select just the right color…
things looked so different in the store lighting! It was hard
enough making time to travel to the store for one trip, much less
another to try to reselect.
Enter, an old fashioned idea that became new
again. Home visits! They decided that they would take the store to
their customers! It would be a "traveling floor and window store"!
They would make appointments when the customer were ready, not just
when their store was open. They could give each individual customer
the time and attention that their project deserved. And the
dream of Carpet Network, "The traveling floor and window store" was
born.
The Carpet Network
Difference.
Carpet Network is in a league of its own. In a
world of imitations, our franchise opportunity stands apart. Our
"Traveling Floor and Window Store"™ concept is coupled with a
state-of-the-art mobile van…made bigger and better to
accommodate a full spectrum of merchandise for your home-based
clients.
You've heard it said that the key to success is
location. What could be better than shopping in your own home for
the very products that will be used there? Our customers view
thousands of carpet, floor and window selections from the comfort
of their homes. It doesn't get much better than that! The
friendliness of the home shopping experience allows for both
long-term relationships and higher closing rates. We simply aim to
please!
