Cardinal Blinds & Shutters

*Hunter Douglas Authorized Dealer* Running a business as a father and daughter team has had its challenges. Phil's background is in training sales people for the insurance industry, so he KNOWS what a good sales person is supposed to be. In contrast, Amy has been a "stay-at-home" mom for eighteen years, raising four children. She knew nothing about running a business, nor selling strategies and techniques. What Amy DID know was how to talk to people, simply because she likes them. Phil's selling techniques and Amy's style of selling were as far apart as you could possibly get and still be in the same universe! At first, Phil tried to "fix" Amy's approach to selling. What Phil could not figure out, and still can't explain to this day is this: while Amy's style did not fit the mold for a "good salesperson," almost every consultation she went on turned into a sale! One morning while thinking about Amy's selling style, this Mark Twain quote came to Phil's mind: "if it ain't broke, don't fix it!" So Phil gave up on trying to "fix" Amy's way of dealing with people on sales calls. He realized that her honest, happy approach and her genuine concern for people was not something you could "teach" someone. --- The Bottom Line --- We know you can buy the same blinds, shades or shutters from an lot of other companies, but you get something more with Phil and Amy ... something you CAN'T get from most other businesses: a family owned and operated business that cares about your home and you as a person.

They want you to be a client for life. They want you to be so thrilled with their products and service that you will go out of your way to tell others about Cardinal Blinds & Shutters!
