“Since moving into the showroom, business has really taken off. We’re now looking to increase turnover, which means taking on more showroom staff and another sales person. We have quite a relaxed relationship with Dream Doors. They encourage and support us, but are not on our backs all the time, and it is in our best interests to listen to them because they know what works. The training gave us enthusiasm for the business and the building blocks to get it up and running”.
