It's been some time since Gallery Furniture of Houston - your leader in bringing you amazing deals on high-quality furniture for all parts of your beautiful Houston area home - did a blog on what was happening at the High Point Furniture Market. I sent one of the Marketing & Internet boys from Gallery Furniture along for a whirlwind adventure, and here's Gil's first entry as he ends day one of his market adventure!
"Thanks, Mack! Well, I am happy to report that the plane flight went with no turbulence and no incidents, we had a very nice flight over to Raleigh and then a cab up to High Point, North Carolina. I flew up with Gallery Furniture Interior Designer John Brown and Gallery Furniture Inventory Specialist Martha Kolo. We enjoyed long conversations about how we were going to look for new and innovative furniture that would save Houstonians money and look great in their Houston homes. We were set to meet buyers Ted Goldman and Chris Etheridge as part of the advance team that went out to High Point.
Last night's food was a new treat - Steak and Shakes of North Carolina is a fun little 24 hour joint down the road from our hotel. They have real steak burgers and milkshakes unlike any other - and after the heavily lay-overed flight, my evening dinner (while a cholestorol nightmare) was quite filling.

I think a lot of folks, Mack, are unaware of the ballet of organized chaos that is the orchestral movements of the Furniture Market - the wide array of manufacturers peddling their wares, to the voluminous amounts of information available from the Educational Seminars make the entirety of the experience one to behold. There are innovative programs - l like the HGTV Preferred Partner Program - to software companies like Icovia who make room planning software for folks like us, all here and ready to enjoy. I immersed myself in a ton of seminars today, and I enjoyed every minute of it.
It ain't a lecture as long as you're learning!
Gallery Furniture's www.GalleryFurniture.com has come a long way, and it is clear we have a long way to go - and learning about some new and innovative ideas that are coming down the pipeline as well on industry trends means that we can grow by leaps and bounds.
I have some more stuff to cover, Mack, and I will be getting all of our wonderful Gallery Furniture customers some more updates as to what is going on at the High Point Furniture Market - Mack, we are working hard to save our local area residents money!"
Good to see the Gallery Furniture High Point Market Team getting the best they can out of the many days at Furniture Market. Gallery Furniture is committed to not only saving you money and delivering today, but also to find the latest fashion trends for your home and also staying ahead of the industry curve. That is why Gallery Furniture sends staff members to seek great deals, and also to educational and interior design seminars. We'll see what else they report from High Point, North Carolina.
Some time before, I really needed to buy a building for my business but I did not earn enough money and could not buy anything. Thank God my fellow adviced to get the home loans from reliable bank. Hence, I did so and was happy with my credit loan.
