Why Work With a Furniture Dealer?
When it comes time to update your existing office or furnish your office for the first time, you may be tempted to DIY. After all, what is so challenging about furniture that you could not handle it on your own?
Many businesses know to go through office furniture dealers but there may be some who do not. My goal is that after reading this article you will understand the reason why the marketplace has a need for office furniture dealers and why, if you are furnishing your commercial office space with new or used office furniture, you should use a professional office furniture dealer.
- Knowledge
One of the challenges with putting on your boots and doing something yourself is that, in order to do it well, you need to become the expert. You have to research as best as you can before you make a semi-permanent decision.
If you are purchasing a single item for your office, that's one thing. But when you are ordering enough furniture to fill several floors of office space, you are better off leaning on the knowledge of an industry professional who has the knowledge and expertise of a specialist and can point you in the best direction and meet your vision of what you want your office space to look and feel like.
- Technology and Space Planning
Office furniture dealers have access to design and space planning tools that aid in guiding clients in the furniture purchasing process.
Tools that create layouts so you know that the furniture fits and is functional inside the office. Anyone who has been inside of an overly crowded office can understand how this is beneficial.
Many office furniture catalogs have multiple configurations of furniture, but they are shown in a single finish with a palette of available finishes. Office furniture dealers have tools that can show you what your desired configuration of furniture will look like in the finish that you want.
- Network
Usually, when it comes time to purchase office furniture, there are more expenses attached to the furniture. Staff to fill the furniture, equipment, cabling, etc. If you need industry professionals that provide services like this, office furniture dealers work with them on a regular basis and can recommend quality vendors so you don't have to hunt them down.
Likewise, our industry is small and connected. If you are looking for a specific item, new or used, going through an office furniture dealer can help you source it easier than if you were searching for it on your own.
- Installation of furniture
Office furniture dealers either have teams or are connected with teams of professional installers who assemble the furniture on site. Unless a piece of furniture is built custom, all commercial office furniture is pre-built and assembled on site. Office furniture dealers handle not only the delivery but the assembly of the office furniture so you do not have to.
