How we run it
Furniture outreach is visual. The message references a project the person published, and the offer is physical: a swatch box, a sample chair, a showroom visit.
Studios are small, so one person per studio, and the purchasing side of a hotel group is a separate segment with its own copy about lead time and volume.
Operated: $2,000 a month. Your own assistant on our stack: from $199. Plans · pacing rules.
