Unlike the others, I know of several people who have bought their mattresses and beds online, although it wouldn't be how i would personally buy. But plenty apparently do..

I looked at your ads, they seem to have a fair bit of detail so that's not the problem.

It is also good that you have several showrooms, they seem to be in Vic though which may mean others interstate may be less inclined to buy, but it depends on the product i suppose.

My son bought a bed & a mattress set online-paid in the thousands for it but the point of difference was it could be cranked up to individual firmness on each side plus it had a full 30 day money back warranty so if they weren't happy they could exchange or get money back.

That 30 day warranty was important to them.

They ended up very happy with it & have kept it.

To me, it could be worth looking at the point of difference between your products & store bought ones-do you have any lines that are harder to get in most retails stores? If so, that may work in your favour.

That's why my son bought online-the ads convinced him it was a top quality product he could not buy elsewhere.

What are your best sellers? Maybe concentrate on those and less of those that are harder to move online.

Good luck.

Better way please?

Sorry to say, but when I buy a bed or new mattress, I want to lay on it and feel it.

I, and I suspect many others would never consider buying a bed/mattress online.

Same goes for recliners or couches.

Some of your feedback mentions problems with delivery, what couriers are you using?

Like Kopes I would really want to try out beds before buying, to check the quality and comfort.

Like others here I would have thought selling beds online was one of the more difficult categories, but your sales reflect something quite different. Good luck to you.

As for the best way to increase sales, I'm not sure. A lot of people have good success with blogs, and social type media like Pinterest, Instagram, farcebook, and others. But, we haven't tried those waters yet, so can't speak from personal experience. Perhaps worth a try.

Thats my best. I wish you well.

Stop spamming the Community Spirit board with ads for your store, for a start.

You've alienated a lot of people.

You have a B & M store near me.

I wouldn't buy from you in a pink fit.

And no-one here is your 'mate'

I now have coffee all over my keyboard. Thanks, Stawks
