Vita Vygovska: Production Workroom Vs Concierge Workroom
Today With Vita Vygovska:
Welcome to Window Treatments for Profit! In this episode I’m joined by my good friend, Vita Vygovska, to discuss the differences between a full-service concierge workroom and a production workroom. We also talk about how full-service workrooms can respond when asked why they charge more than production workrooms. Either way, if you are a window treatment professional, you will learn all of the differences between the two types of showrooms. If you own a showroom, then you will learn how to answer that dreaded question.

LuAnn and Vita Vygovska’s Ah-Ha Moments
“A Full-service concierge workroom does everything a production workroom does, except their services extend through the last step of the window treatment.” – Vita Vygovska
“I can say with high confidence that when you work with a full-service workroom, the amount of care, attention, and vested interest in the relationship is a lot higher.” – Vita Vygovska
