Decor&You® Space Planning Includes Room For Growth As Young Franchise Enters Its Tenth Anniversary Year

Business Wire:

Young franchisor, Decor&You, Inc., will begin its tenth year with a powerful new franchise product, a new, stylized online communications platform, and an expanding team of award-winning decorators in nearly 30 states, announced CEO Karen Powell at the company’s recent national conference in Connecticut.

Decor&You exceeded franchise sales projections in 2007, within just 10 months, on a new multi-unit, territory model first offered in January. The model relies on a single franchisee who directs development and recruits experienced designers. New territories operate in California, Colorado, Illinois, Nevada, Texas, and Virginia.

Powell said innovation continued online in September, with a website overhaul, to strengthen the company’s communications platform and help drive both franchise and decorating sales. ‘Today www.decorandyou.com mirrors the way Decor&You creates beautiful interiors in homes and businesses across America: full-service interior decorating solutions that are consumer-focused, friendly and easy to navigate,’ she noted. Features rolling out in 2008 include an interactive palette to help consumers explore designing with color, an online retail store, career postings, and events calendars with auto-registration functionality.
