Closet Conundrums: Why You Should Choose a Modular Option for Your New Closet System

10.29.2018

You’re positively ecstatic!  After years of shuffling in and out of rented apartments that have been aging, dank, and cramped, you finally have a bright and spacious new home of your own. Now that you have your dream home -- you can also create your very own dream closet!

No need any more to keep your clothing stuffed in suitcases or lying haphazardly on every available surface. Your new master bedroom will give you plenty of space for a fully-designed closet system.

For the first time ever, your entire wardrobe can be organized, accessible, and beautifully showcased at all times!

As you go ahead in planning to purchase your new closet system, you know that traditionally there have been two options:

  1. Buying your closet system from a local retailer (known in commercial circles as “retail sales”)
  2. Buying your closet system direct from the manufacturer (known also as “direct sales”)
Modular Closets

    What you may not know is that there is now a third option for purchasing your new closet system, an option that combines the best benefits of the original two options:

    3. The Modular Solution to Buying a New Closet System

    Let’s see why this third option combines the best of the previous two….

    The Benefits of Buying Your Closet System from a Local Retailer

    There are four main advantages to buying your new closet system from a retailer:

    1. Customization

    The best perk of buying your closet system from a retailer is the opportunity to work directly with design professionals. You will get a closet customized to your personal needs and wants.

    Unlike manufacturers, retailers have the expert personnel that can work with you one-on-one to configure the closet design that best fits your exact specifications and room dimensions. And if you want to reconfigure your closet system, they can work with you to continue modifying your design until you’re completely satisfied that your new dream closet will fit your evolving needs.

    2. Informed Decision Making

    Most consumers communicate with retailers not manufacturers.  This puts the retailers in a prime position to receive the best feedback about how different closets actually work -- or don’t work -- in the real world. 

    The more feedback a retailer receives, the better they can recommend a particular closet system for you. With this knowledge, you will be able to make a better-informed decision about your future dream closet.

    3. Personalized Service

    Why do people prefer one brand over other viable competitors? 

    You might assume that quality, price, or the terms of purchase would be the primary factors in most people’s decision to buy. But a 2016 survey published by the San Francisco-based marketing firm Salesforce suggests otherwise:

    After surveying approximately 7,000 consumers about the variable most likely to influence their brand choices, the pollsters were surprised by the results: 66 % of respondents cited — as a crucial factor in their decision — their perception that the company was treating them as a distinct individual, not as just another customer.

    The perk of personalized customer service is yet another reason to buy your closet system from a retailer and not a manufacturer. Because most retailers dedicate significant time, money, and effort to excellent customer service, they generally are able to connect with customers on a more personal level, resulting in a more seamless and positive customer experience.

    4. No Minimum Order

    Many (if not all) manufacturers will not sell to you directly unless you place a substantial order, what is known in the wholesale business as a “Minimum Order Requirement.” 

    So, if you only need one or two new closets systems to complete your dream home, the direct-from-the-manufacturer option will not work for you.

    The Benefits of Buying Your Closet System Direct from the Manufacturer

    There are three real advantages to buying your new closet system direct from the manufacturer:

    1. Cost-Effective

    The best perk to ordering your closet system directly from the company that manufactures it is that you will get the lowest possible price.

    Why? Because in buying direct from the manufacturer, you cut out the middlemen.

    All factory-built products follow a similar route from manufacturer to consumer known as the “supply chain,” a route that requires complex logistics between the manufacturer to retailers before the products are available to you. Bypassing the middlemen spares the manufacturer significant expenses, which allows them to pass those savings on to you.

    2. Access to Production Experts

    Dealing directly with the experts who produce your dream closet gives you ready access to the people who know its ins-and-outs better than everybody else.

    As a savvy consumer, you wouldn’t buy a refurbished smartphone from just any old private seller.  Better to buy it directly from the company, where expert technicians are guaranteed to have a comprehensive understanding of the product. If a problem is detected, they know exactly how to apply a permanent fix.

    What’s true for a smartphone purchase is true for all purchases. Best to deal with the production experts directly to ensure your dream closet is produced to the highest possible standards.

    3. Availability in Stock

    Have you ever driven all the way to a store, only to find that what you went to buy is not currently available in stock?

    A survey conducted by the research frim IHL-Group discovered that 20 - 33% of in-store shoppers can’t find what they’re looking for in common shops like pharmacies, department stores, and electronics retailers.

    This can be due to a number of factors, including products being sold out, not re-stocked in a timely manner, or placed in the wrong location.  Some retailers have insufficient staff to help customers find what they need.

    Buying directly from the manufacturer guarantees that whatever you need to buy will be in-stock and available to purchase as soon as you want it.

    Why the Modular Closets Solution to Buying a Closet System Combines the Best of All Benefits
