Walk into a well-run furniture showroom and the experience is intentional. The main floor is living. The layout tells a story. Collections are grouped with purpose. Advertising is reflective of this intent. Associates know what is featured and why. The tone carries from the front entrance to the checkout counter.
Now visit the website.
Too often, a furniture retailer’s digital presence feels disconnected. The homepage is generic and unchanged. The latest showroom collection is nowhere to be found. Promotions don’t align. The brand voice feels watered down. It creates friction and for the customer, it can feel like dealing with two different companies.
This isn’t always a technology issue. More often, it’s about ownership and cadence. The store has someone who lives and breathes the showroom experience, who ensures the physical space is updated, merchandised, and telling the right story. But who plays that role online? Who is the online champion?
Some home retailers are closing that gap. They treat the homepage like a digital showroom front. When the floor sets change, the website changes too. Featured collections online reflect what is being pushed in-store. Associates help select "staff picks" that appear both on signage and digitally. The same tone of voice that greets a walk-in customer shows up in the site copy.
You can feel the difference. There is consistency. The rhythm of the brand carries through no matter where the customer starts their journey.
What if your homepage was updated with the same discipline and frequency as your store entrance? What would it take to have digital reflect what the physical space is trying to say, today?
You do not need a redesign. You need ownership. You need a process. Someone who wakes up every week thinking about how the website can support what the showroom is doing right now.
The customers are already moving between both. The question is - does it feel like the same experience?
