CDT News week of June 1-5

Remember to attend our upcoming furniture training!
Tuesday, June 16 from 10:30-1:00 Jerry Hoffman and Walt Kozy from Duralee will be presenting a "Back to Basics" seminar. Camille and Vicki will finish the program with tips on how to sell furniture when your client can't sit on it.

We have heard from several of our vendors this past week, telling us that they think that the fall season will be a good one. They are hiring again, and starting to introduce new collections and building up stock. What are you doing to prepare for this? Attending this seminar might be a good step!

Refreshments will be served, so please RSVP, 847 394-1800.

Don't forget...

CDT floor sample sale:
All Temple, Taylor King and Ferguson Copeland upholstered items on our showroom floor are and additional 25% off regular designer discount. All lamps that were here before mid April are also on sale. Take an extra 20% on the first lamp, and 20%-10% on 2 or more lamps.

Time to do your own house with deals like this!!!

Hunter Douglas, Duralee, Owner Select and ADO sales are still in effect.

The Inventory reduction sales from Century and Ferguson Copeland are ongoing.
There are some great deals here if you take the time to look!


Great News---CDT Now carries Henredon!!
We are delighted to announce the addition of Henredon Furniture to our product mix.

Long a favorite of designers and our clients, we feel that this collection really completes our mix of top quality, but not insanely expensive product. Joining Taylor King, Century, Duralee, Ferguson Copeland, Bausman, Guy Chaddock Old Biscayne, Weiman and Thayer Coggin, Henredon gives CDT the most comprehensive selection of products at that price point of any showroom in the area.

We hope that all of you will soon be using this lovely
product to complete your clients homes.

TREND
At the opposite end of the spectrum, Fabricut has now extended distribution of their moderately priced Trend fabric collection, so it is now in the showrooms, including CDT. For space reasons, we will have the most designer oriented books only, no hangers, and memos will not be stocked in house. We will be happy to order whatever you need. We know that this will come in handy, just like Robert Allen @ Home, and Duralee Suburban Home. Sometimes that promotional pricing is what enables you to close a sale. Some Trend books are here now, others, including the Jacqueline Smith collection will be arriving soon.
New Minutes Matter Version Out!!!
This new version is so easy to use - you will love it. You can now add trim to a drapery panel in just one click! You can customize the toolbars to have all your favorite commands. Minutes Matter now also has the exclusive to Jackie Von Tobel's modules (The Design Directory of Window Treatments).

Not familiar with Minutes Matter? Call Andrea and set up a time to have a private seminar.

We are expecting the new 3.0 trial cds soon in the showroom.

Already have Minutes Matter? You can purchase this upgrade!
