How has the Room Design Course helped you make sales?

  • " more diagraming of room designs "

  • " sketch to scale. "
  • " More interactive. Also, in the color study chapter, label the colors on the color wheel and in the color exercises. Many computers will see color differently and wrong answers may be chosen by mistake. "
  • " the modlues here a bit challenging, but helpful. I really reconmend for anybody to try it and achieve higher incomes as well as directing the custumer to make a better purchase. "

  • " nON i LOVE IT THE WAY IT IS "
  • " It was very good. "
  • " I think that the course is just right the way it is. "
  • " Much of the information is either dated or incorrect. Many of the lessons are presented as hard and fast rules, which could be an obstacle for somebody just starting out with decorating. Several answers in the activities/tests were wrong, or there were multiple correct answers. The British 'saleswoman' is very annoying--her narration comes across as holier-than-thou...somebody I would never want to buy furniture from. "
  • " NONE EVERTHING WAS VERY HELPFULL. "
  • " The questions on the test are incredibly subjective. "

  • " i think it was great as it is "
  • " I suggest that there is more of what to tell the customer to help use the colors in the right way. "
  • " THE COLOR WHEEL WAS TOUGH.TOO MUCH IN ONE LESSON "
  • " a litle more detail of universl design styles: diagramming the four design styles. "
  • " none that I know of "
  • " what i like to suggest to other it's to try the diagram... "
  • " When showing the color combinations use more photos and less cartoonish computer generated pictures "
  • " more on measurements of room because the customer normally doesnt know. you could have taught approx sizes of pieces to help. learned in another training course. "
  • " Loosen up on design "rules" "
  • " It would take less time if we could domit at work when slow at night but we can not get on it.. it keeps bumpimgus out. "
  • " Get more involved with a detailed graph using graph paper. "

  • " Having a designated time to get to the lesson plans instead of trying to do this and sell during a work shift. "
  • " i wish that we could go forward or back... when you went back it went right to the begining ot the course... and sometimes changed screens when i was not ready "
  • " It works fine when audio is involved but when there is no audio the course is not defined with script. "
  • " great enough "
  • " none it was very thourgh "
  • " A few more design activities like diagramming the room, placing the furniture, and then comparing what you did versus the expert's would be helpful and fun. "
  • " I FEEL LIKE THE MAN TALKING IN THIS SECTION WAS GOING A LITTLE BIT TO FAST I THINK THAT IT SHOULD BE DONE IN THE SAME SPEED AS THE LADY ON THE SALES FORCE "
  • " i would love to see a booklet with pictures setting forth design info, especially color wheel and different color schemes. l "
  • " My only suggestion to improve the course is on the test where there is multiple lines for each answer- Please make more room to show all the lines on each answer instead of showing 2 or 3 lines and have to scroll down on it. "
  • " I think we pass enough computer training in room store,to make a better sales, also is will be great if we have a few time a year oppoyunity to have training with some new fashion furniture design. "
  • " ----------------------------------------------- "
  • " It was very informative. Can't think of any right now. "
  • " The course was very easy to understand in most areas. "
  • " overall. course test. fianl and review "

  • " A Little more product knowledge and furniture history. "
  • " MORE MOCK TEST "
  • " Have all of the course dialogue also available in text as part of the lesson. I had to use a computer with audio to complete the training successfully. I could have done it faster if I could have read the lesson at times as well. "
  • " NONE.EVERY SALESPERSON SHOULD HAVE ACCESS TO THIS PROGRAM. "
  • " This course was great and needs no improvment "
  • " This is a great base for someone new in the furniture buisness "
  • " simplify the color segment of the course. seems more technical then it should be. "
  • " add where customer heating or cooling systems are as that will impact where furniture should be placed "
  • " told her that she could paint the focal wall the dark color that she wanted but we could a lighter contrasting color on other walls and good placement of lamps and an area rug to pull her room together. "
  • " Perhaps the best layouts with focal point and knowing what creates the best look for their needs. LIke more examples of what the different ways are to design in the same space different amounts of furniture and accessories. "
  • " None that I can think of. "

We are very excited by the ease of use over the Internet, 24/7 access, and the consistent training information. "
