Expert Advice

authorsDan Luck| November 20, 2020

Its a dirty word, and I refuse to speak it anymore unless forced. It has disrupted and altered all plans for 2020. Im tired of hearing about it, much less talking about it, regardless of the name: pandemic; coronavirus; COVID-19.

Whatever you choose to call it, this major business disruptor has forced kitchen/bath business owners across the country to learn new skills such as showroom safety, adopting new fashion mandates (masks) and managing personnel remotely. Plans, budgets and dreams for the year have either been placed on hold, cast aside or tossed away completely. The distraction has caused many to lose focus and take their eyes off the prize. The lack of focus is killing momentum and infusing a negative impact on all kitchen and bath operations.

The bright spot through all the dark clouds is consumer demand. Homeowners, isolated in their abodes, see firsthand the inefficiencies of their living spaces. When exposed to it every day, the pain is more acute and increases the desire to seek professional assistance. To that end, dealers should pivot and focus on what is essential now and create action initiatives that make their businesses stronger.

Through years of analyzing financial statements, studying business models and critiquing kitchen and bath business operations onsite, Ive compiled a list of best practices aimed at making kitchen and bath businesses stronger. What follows are my top 10 business practices, presented in reverse order:

#10: Know Your End Game

When it comes to achieving goals, Stephen Covey said it best in his book The 7 Habits Of Highly Effective People: Start With The End In Mind. Most well-intentioned owners may very well start with an end-game for their business, but lack the discipline to pull it off. A communicated written vision and a precise roadmap to get there are necessary. Thats what a strategic plan will do for you: planning for tomorrow, today.

#9: Sharpen Your Saw

Theres a compelling need in this industry for saw-sharpening in other words, leveraging self-discipline to gain greater riches. That means preserving and enhancing the greatest asset you possess: you. It means having a program for self-renewal in the four key areas of your life: physical, social/emotional, mental and spiritual. A saw can get dull when repeatedly used; it needs sharpening to work more efficiently. With all the stress in developing, selling and producing kitchens and baths, sales designers must sharpen their saw regularly. Otherwise, mental fatigue leads to poor decision-making which, in turn, leads to an up-and-down, herky-jerky rate of growth.

#8: Motivate through Emotion

In the kitchen and bath industry, most sales designers seem to think that their designs should sell themselves, and that a logical presentation that demonstrates a logical solution to a prospects set of issues should carry the day. But while prospects make decisions intellectually, they buy emotionally. Gaining emotional traction starts with the first meeting and carries throughout. Asking the right questions and discovering the real needs and pains of the prospect must take precedence. Sales designers should use these discoveries to provide a solution whereby prospects are emotionally engaged and locked in.

#7: Collaborate on Price

Research shows that its challenging to convince people of anything. But prospects will convince themselves that a kitchen or bath projects price is right when theyre involved in the process. Too often, designers feel a need or desire to be a hero: swooping down in a red cape and saving the day with an award-winning design for which they take sole credit and ending up losing the sale. Instead, sales designers should assume the role of a guide, working hand in hand with prospects, guiding them and involving them in the process and, in turn, making them the hero. When you collaborate with prospects on developing a budget, they end up owning the price. The result is far less price resistance. This approach will make a transformative difference in sales production.

#6: Bottom-Up Team Development

After the cost of goods sold, personnel payroll is the most significant expense on an income statement. Appropriately organized and armed with unique skill sets and management systems to control all the project details your personnel team can make a major difference in the quality, appearance, function and performance of a new kitchen or bath. Create an in-house strategy to develop a team from the bottom up by building your productive personnel team. Develop a comprehensive training regimen that moves an entry-level team member upwards in your organization, providing opportunities for success across all departments. By giving your team everything they need to be productive training, sales tools, infrastructure, mentoring and leadership youll get what all owners treasure: emotional ownership in your company by your personnel.

#5: Sell More into Every Job

The recession of 2008-2009 taught a lesson that the current pandemic has confirmed. With fewer prospects, its paramount to sell more products and services into every project. Its far less costly to add more products to each project than to attract another lead, especially if COVID-19 fear reduces your prospect base. Todays prospects are short on time and desire a stress-free shopping experience. Kitchen and bath professionals who provide a one-stop showroom experience will best serve todays consumers. Providing buyers with access to everything from cabinetry to tile, lighting to plumbing fixtures, will provide an exceptional customer experience and set the stage for strong revenue growth and enduring financial success.

#4: Account for Burden Expense

One of the main reasons why the majority of kitchen and bath dealers have only marginally profitable operations is that they fail to account for their burden expense in their pricing formula. Left unattended, it spells disaster for any operation, regardless of how well they perform in other areas. Burden is defined as all the indirect costs to a project that are difficult to identify and capture. An expense such as a project managers salary, truck expenses, warehousing, production staff benefits and shop supplies are just a few examples of a burden expense. Each operation should perform a burden calculation exercise and include it in their pricing formula and commission system. Failure to do so will prevent a business from experiencing its full profit potential.

#3: Focus on Gross Profit Dollars

I recall sitting at a roundtable years ago in which the facilitator posed a question about each participants companys size. Everyone shared their revenue achievements (high testosterone levels were on display with each answer). A second question focusing on profitability triggered immediate silence. No one volunteered to go first to share their numbers. Gross margin dollars, or gross profit percentages, are the two most important numbers on your income statement. In other words, its not how much you sell, but how much money you make on each job sold. If you dont mark up your jobs high enough, you wont have enough gross profit dollars to cover your annual overhead, owners salary and desired net profit.

Its a detail everyone on your team should be focused on. Each project you sell needs to generate a gross profit, commensurate with the sales price, which proportionately contributes towards the annual total budgeted expenses and net profit goal. Without this focus, dealers are left with chronically weak bottom lines.

#2: Know Your Numbers

Numbers tell a story. Numbers run a business. If you dont read your financial statements, and understand what theyre saying, youre driving blind. If you know how to read them, but dont leverage the information the numbers reveal, then your business succumbs to underachievement. In short, youll be buying yourself an underpaying owners job with more headaches than working for someone else, while earning higher pay and fewer headaches. The kitchen and bath dealer landscape is dominated by owners who know how to design and sell kitchens successfully, but very few have disciplined themselves to learn the financial side of the business. Until this happens, few owners will realize their full growth and profit potential, develop sufficient reserves to fund a comfortable retirement, nor have others drooling to buy their businesses at premium prices when theyre ready to exit the industry.

#1: Leverage Technology

The number-one practice to make your business stronger is to leverage technology. Technological advances are all around, and yet it appears our industry is a slow adopter. Introduced more than 30 years ago, memories of CAD resistance still linger. Today, most of us cant imagine life without CAD. What have we universally accepted since then? Will it take another 30 years for another tool to be entirely accepted? While each of the 10 best business practices Ive outlined is important, technology by itself is a force multiplier because it amplifies the positive impact from the other nine. Technology, when leveraged correctly, can be that singular throttle that speeds both growth and profitability, zooming your company way past the competition. Thats a goal we should all seek with vigor.

10 Ways to Make Your Business Stronger - Kitchen and Bath Design News

No room is quite as multifunctional as the kitchen. The hub of the home, this space has evolved from a strictly utilitarian unit into a versatile room to prepare food, entertain guests and share meals. If youre looking to do a kitchen remodel, keep in mind that a successful kitchen design needs to blend functionality with personal prerequisites. Find thousands of kitchen ideas to help you come up with the perfect design for your space.

When discovering kitchen ideas, there are several aspects to consider and keep in mind as you browse kitchen photos. First and foremost, you should carefully consider your layout and where to place large appliances. Next, you should focus on storage; kitchens contain a lot of utensils, pots, pans and gadgets, and you need to have enough space to store all of your favorites within easy reach. Lastly, your room should reflect your personality with its decor and vibe. The ultimate goal of all kitchens should be to create the most functional yet beautiful space possible to meet your eating and entertaining needs.

Another essential kitchen remodel essential to consider is the work triangle, which is a 70-year-old concept that is still highly utilized within the design world today. A simple idea that can save both time and energy, the work triangle connects the three main work areas: the sink, the stove and the refrigerator. As a general guideline, the distance between these areas should be no less than 4 feet and no larger than 9 feet. The sum of all three sides of the triangle should be between 13 feet and 26 feet. Given how highly effective this utilitarian design is, definitely take it into account when considering kitchen designs.

Local Housing: Why Should Experts Take Care of the Home Remodel? - Patch.com

The middle of a pandemic doesnt seem like the ideal time to open up a restaurant, but dont tell that to Seasa Hofman. The Jamaica Plain resident by way of Thailand has decades of restaurant experience under his belt thanks to his aunt, who ran the Montien Thai restaurant in Chinatown for 35 years before selling it earlier this year.

Eager to trade in the spacious downtown eatery for more intimate digs of his own, Hofman jumped at the chance this summer when a retail space opened up on Dorchester Avenue in Fields Corner.

We were lucky to get the spot, admitted Hofman. But we hope to stay and be here a long time.

The space, which up until recently housed the Magic Wok restaurant, is now home to Just Thai Kitchen, where patrons can find authentic Bangkok-style street food like stir-fry noodles, fried rice, and spicy curry dishes.

Since opening at the end of September, the eatery has received a warm welcome from the neighborhood, said Hofman.

Everybody has been coming in and telling us Welcome to Dorchester. People have been really friendly, and it seems like they are happy we are here.

The restaurant stands out as one of few Thai establishments in the area, which is home to a robust Vietnamese culinary scene. Hofman thinks his spot stands to benefit by offering something different.

Vietnam and Thailand are neighbors, but the foods a bit different, he explained. We want to give people an idea of what authentic Thai food is like, and I think here in Boston people always like to try something new.

The interior of the restaurant has been refreshed with a sharp remodeling job and a dash of bright paint, as well as a painting gifted by a friend with a collage of Thai landmarks and cultural icons. On an opposing wall, a TV screen rolls footage of a show exploring Thai street food.

In encouraging neighbors to sample Thai food, Hofman and his chef, a fellow Thai-born Massachusetts resident named Pong, are also hoping to promote Thai culture.

A lot of Thai food is about balancing, said Pong, describing the cuisine as an organic type of fusion. Were in between India and China, so we kind of take a bit from stir fry and curry and make it our own. But Thai food is also pretty healthy. We use coconut milk instead of dairy, so its light. We also care about our vegan and vegetarian customers, and have a lot of options for them, as well.

The chef has also infused some personality into the menu with a Just Authentic Thai section featuring dishes like Khao Kapow and Khao Katiem that he says are just as spicy as what one would buy from a street vendor in Thailand.

A current special spotlights one of Pongs personal favorites crispy ginger JTK wings and with colder weather incoming, hes also preparing for seasonal specials like Massaman curry and Tom Yum, a hot and sour soup.

As the small Dot Ave. space can only accommodate a few patrons at a time, and with a foreboding pandemic forecast on the horizon, take-out and delivery through services like Uber Eats and Doordash will likely make up the bulk of Just Thai orders.

But, Hofman said, the warm reception from his new neighbors and a fairly steady stream of customers has him feeling optimistic. In the last few weeks I think weve sold out of everything on the menu, he said, which is good. We want people to get the full, real experience.

Siwek Lumber is ready to help with any of your winter projects, from furniture making to remodeling.

I feel like the coronavirus pandemic has put most of us into one of two categories: There are those of us whose quarantine-induced boredom has led to a new dramatic haircut, maybe some temporary hair dye, or a new piercing. And then there are those of us who have deemed quarantine the ideal time for a drastic life change, from adopting a new pet to remodeling the entire house.

Whether youre rockin some newly purpled hair, or youre sitting in a completely torn-up kitchen, wondering at what point the remodel went from buying some new plants to redoing your flooringthe pandemic has offered a fresh start in many ways. So whatever it is that quarantine has given you the gall to try, go for it! And if its something as life-altering as a home remodel, Siwek Lumber can help with that.

During the Great Depression in 1933, Joseph and Frances Siwek began what is now Siwek Lumber & Millwork, Inc. Though unemployment was at an all-time high, the couple decided to take a gamble and start a new business.

Siwek Lumber is a retail lumberyard, millwork center, custom shop, and a hardware store that serves everyoneincluding homeowners, craftspeople, artists, woodworkers, manufacturers, business owners, hobbyists, crafters, and the DIY crowd.

Our custom millwork shop recreates old wood storms, screens, sash, mouldings, and doors, says Siwek Lumber owner Tom Siwek. Our winter projects include furniture making, interior remodeling, interior doors and trim, planning for outdoor projects and summer projects, and more.

Siwek says folks often think that working outside isnt possible in cold months, but he wants customers to know that there are many working days through the winter.

Winter is a great time to work in the garage or basement shop on hobby projects youve put off for years! Woodworking is something anyone can do and succeed at, Siwek says. Desks, tables, bedframes, dressers, and more. The biggest tip I have is to make sure it fits up the basement stairs after building!

To accommodate customers while still taking necessary COVID-19 precautions, Siwek Lumber has installed social distancing counters that are six feet deep, and theyve also widened the main aisles in the outdoor sheds and warehouses for easy navigation and social distancing. There are also sanitization and cleaning procedures in place to ensure the space is clean for customers.

We are an amazing asset with a huge variety of building materials with expert help and ease of shopping, Siwek adds.

If a hair cut isnt enough change for you these days, maybe a new statement piece of furniture will do the trick. Its worth a shot!
