You don’t need a huge showroom to make a big profit — sometimes, all it takes is a few great barstools. In this episode of the Independent Thinking Podcast, we chat with Randy Graboski from Armen Living, NMG's newest vendor partner in barstools and outdoor furniture. They dive into why this fast-growing category is such a moneymaker, how Armen is bringing style and strength to every seat (500 lbs, to be exact!), and what exclusive offers await Nationwide members. 🎧 Check it out and see how you can bring more style — and margin — to your showroom 👉 https://lnkd.in/gKwMDwd #NMG #IndependentRetail #FurnitureRetail #Podcast #VendorPartner #Barstools

Serta Simmons Bedding, LLC is making its Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade debut with the new Counting Sheep’s Dream Generator by Serta® float — celebrating comfort, joy, and the Sheep’s 25th birthday. Not a bad way to mark a milestone. As the most-watched entertainment program of the year, the parade offers a huge moment for brand visibility. But as NMG’s Director of Bedding, Nick Norton, reminds us, you don’t need a national stage to create impact. Independent retailers can build the same emotional connection through strong storytelling, community involvement, and experiences that make shoppers feel understood. Serta’s beloved Sheep are a great reminder: nostalgia, humor, and personality go a long way in strengthening brand loyalty. 📺 Catch the magic on Thursday, November 27 at 8:30 a.m. on NBC and Peacock (encore at 2:00 p.m.).

A recent Wharton study found consumers are more likely to choose products endorsed by a celebrity, and they make that decision faster. The catch? Authenticity matters. For home-focused brands, HGTV personalities offer a unique advantage: built-in trust, household name recognition, and instant social proof. With HGTV ranking among the most-watched networks, hosts like the Property Brothers and Erin & Ben Napier carry significant influence across U.S. shoppers. Full blog here: https://bit.ly/3JYUWMp
