Let me start this blog off by apologizing for my lack of posts over the past 2-3 weeks. It has been a very busy time for us here at GoCeilingMedallion.com.
I plan on getting back in the swing of it over the next couple of weeks. We have a lot of changes going on right now and we think you will really appreciate many of them.
One of the things that has kept us busy was the International Builder's Show (IBS). What an unbelievable assembly of some of the world's latest talent and technology to hit the home builder and design world. This was actually my first trip to the Show. The Show was held from February 7-10 at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida. I was amazed at the sheer size of it first of all. More than 1 million square feet were devoted to the most innovative products and services.
The 2006 President of the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB), David L. Pressly, Jr. said, "...the IBS is the world's premier showcase of products and services for the home building industry." The exhibit included products from over 1800 cutting edge developers and builders, with about 450 new exhibitors this year. This was the biggest turnout the NAHB has seen to date.
Although Bob and I did not get the opportunity to attend any this year, the IBS is also well-known for it's educational seminars and workshops. These programs included topics such as marketing, finance and business practices, as well as sales and the economy. There were more than 290 different seminars available to anyone looking to stay abreast of all the latest in this competitive market.
We took advantage of the networking aspect, meeting our suppliers and manufacturers. Bob and I were also busy searching out a variety of new products to offer our customers. Stay tuned over the next few months because we are going to be offering a whole new assortment of products to you at the best and lowest prices. You may also see a total remake of the website in the future.
I included some photos from the IBS. There's the entrance at the top. That's Bob in the second photo and the third photo with a new product. The last photo is a shot of everybody moving between buildings. We had a great time!
Look for photos of some of the products we'll be adding to GoCeilingMedallion.com in later posts. I also have photos from a trip to New Mexico. Wait until you see some of the architecture in Silver City.
Well, that's all from me for now. Let me know what you want to see. Don't forget to send photos of your finished rooms. I would love to post them on our blogs. Thanks again to all of our loyal and new customers.
