Forbes recently reported that independent flooring retailers are in decline. Between 2016 and 2019 the number of independent stores dropped from just over 11,000 down to 10,669.
Meanwhile national chains are ADDING stores.
If the national chains gobbling up market share was the only threat you faced you’d have a big problem.
But you are also facing massive inflation, cost increases, supply chain issues, a possible recession and maybe even a repeat of the 2008 housing market collapse.
Massive disruption is coming over the next 12-36 months.
This is especially true for marketing.
Your website, search, Google ads, social media, video…it’s all about to change.
Over the next few years many more dealers will likely close their doors forever.
Do you have a plan to navigate this disruption and uncertainty and come out the other side with your business intact? If not, read on…
Amidst these challenges there's great opportunity. Opportunity for dealers to position their businesses for growth and longevity into the future if they know how to take CORRECT ACTION, and do it quickly.
That's why I’m hosting the Market Dominator Virtual Bootcamp happening on Thursday, Oct. 26th. It's an immersive, full-day event that I'll be hosting online.
Now, let me be clear—this bootcamp is not about how to merely survive.
To scrape by.
To hold on until circumstances beyond your control hopefully change.
Because if you're content with survival alone, you won't make it in the long run.
Instead, you’ll be equipped to dominate your market for the long haul. This bootcamp is designed for dealers who refuse to succumb to recessions, unfavorable markets, or any negative external factors.
It’s for dealers who are ready to seize control of their own destiny, kick ass, and make their mark.
First and foremost, we'll craft a new blueprint for your business. A blueprint that propels your growth into the future and establishes a lasting legacy—one you can pass down to your children or sell for a premium if you choose.
We'll create a business that consistently grows while allowing you ample time to do what you love outside of business. To stop being a slave to your store.
To work the hours YOU choose, take vacations, spend time with family, or work on your golf game.
Prepare to reignite your dreams and develop a concrete plan to turn them into reality.
After we build your new blueprint, we'll pour fuel on the fire. We'll construct a marketing plan that acts as rocket fuel for your business, rendering recessions irrelevant.
This won't be a mere assortment of advertising tactics or rehashed presentations from tradeshows and webinars.
Instead, you'll walk away with a customer-generating machine that operates tirelessly, week in and week out, regardless of economic conditions.
This machine is evergreen, meaning it continues to work year after year, regardless of AI disruption or other technological changes.
And here's the best part—you don't have to be a techie to make it work.
You'll gain an instant advantage over your competitors because while they're stuck in their old ways, you'll be implementing a proven marketing machine that none of them have tapped into.
Most dealers don’t know how A.I. is going to affect their business and what actions they should be taking right now to prepare themselves.
That’s why I’m dedicating an entire segment of the Bootcamp to this topic.
You’ll learn:
This training is designed for the NON-techie.
The strategies I cover will be very practical for your business right now, and can be implemented by anyone at any tech level.
