Offering a wide range of closeouts, discontinued items, and specials that are a perfect fit for vendors at swap meets and flea markets, Mayberry Rugs is reaching out to customers as never before. “I think that our special deals are what bring vendor customers to us,” says company vice president and general manager Dean Baker, “and now they can sign up for our e-mail club.”
Visitors to the company Web site can click a big button right on the home page to subscribe. “We just started the e-mail newsletter a couple months ago,” says Baker, “and we are up to 300 subscribers.”
“We also have some spring specials, available on the Web site,” he adds.
The advantage is that customers can find out about deals as soon as they are available. “A couple times a month we notify them by e-mail about special offers or promotions,” explains Baker. “We want to get our name out in front of our customers, just to advise them of any specials we have.”
But finding out about deals is not the only reason to consider Mayberry Rugs. The company prides itself on its amazing assortment. “It’s mainly about the variety,” says Baker. “I don’t think we’re the cheapest around, but as far as variety, we can’t be beat.”
Customers get a sense of that variety from the products listed online. “Just look at the Web site — we’ve got thousands of woven area rugs, doormats, printed mats, bath rugs, accent rugs, and more. It’s just all in the variety.”
The minimum order is $500 for the first transaction. “If we have a $500 order as an opener, for instance,” says Baker, “they can call back and order one rug if needed.” For more information, contact:
