Today With Greg Wyers and Jennifer Points Welcome to a Well-Designed Business. For today’s sponsored episode, I am excited to welcome Greg Wyers and Jennifer Points, president and marketing specialist at Design Trade Service. Design Trade Services is an exclusive online marketplace for designers created to streamline the sourcing process and let you efficiently shop from 80 different vendors, all in one place. They’ve vetted the products and vendors and created this marketplace, available to designers with no membership fee. DTS has also created an AI program that can help you find exactly what you’re looking for without wasting time looking through different vendor websites and taking a look at all the available products. Today, Greg and Jen are sharing everything about DTS, their AI, and how they can help you streamline sourcing for your clients. LuAnn Nigara, Greg Wyers and Jennifer Points’s Ah-Ha Moments: "It’s not just about putting something on a computer screen that works well. You have to understand the needs of both the buyer and the seller. That’s where our decades of experience make all the difference." – Greg "You can want all day from a vendor or a manufacturer, but when they say it can’t happen, someone with your experience knows how to ask in a way that gets a yes. That’s what makes DTS so valuable—it’s solving the pain points for both designers and manufacturers." – LuAnn Nigara “We ultimately think our AI will revolutionize how designers search products for a look for a client.” -Greg More About Design Trade Service Design Trade Services is an exclusive online marketplace where Professional Interior Designers can instantly purchase from Furniture and Home Furnishings Manufacturers at better than typical “to-the-trade” pricing.
