My wife and I love home interior design. We are not experts by any means, but we pay attention to design details whenever we can. One design element we love is oriental rugs. As a result, Falasiri Oriental Rugs is a store where we have spent a considerable amount of time. Select seven oriental rugs for our homes for your next area rug. om this fabulous store. Let me elaborate.
The aim of marketing is to know and understand the customer so well the product fits him and sells itself.

About Falasiri’s
They have an intriguing tagline:
We place the world at your feet.
That is one you don’t see often. And many of their collection you don’t often see either. Perhaps most never at all. That is great news for interior home designers. It certainly is for us.
Falasiri’s has been in business since 1968. So you can imagine an inventory they have seen and collected in that period.
It is unusual to find one of this country’s best selections of oriental carpets in the heart of Florida—but 30 years ago they came south and brought their New York collection with them. But they maintained their top-notch network of dealers from New York City and all over the world.

Falasiri Oriental Rugs … my experience
Recently, my wife and I bought several Turkish rugs from Mehrdad Moghadam, Vero Beach’s Steve Jobs of Oriental rug merchants.
If I could run my company as well he could sell, I’d have the most successful marketing agency in the state of Florida.
Technically, speaking, Mehrdad didn’t sell us anything. He only created the conditions that allowed us to buy. I know many of you think this is just an original form of selling, but I would argue otherwise.

How did Mehrdad work these magic conditions, when we weren’t sure we were ready to buy a rug, let alone 2?
He effortlessly … established rapport
He had beautiful rugs … and knew them better than most people know themselves
He loved … what he did
He shared his knowledge … with high emotion
He gave us … all the space we needed
He had a wonderful … sense of humor
He had kind eyes … and a big heart
He conducted the transaction … in the spirit of service
He knew what he was doing … and he did it with the perfect blend of flair and humility
Take a moment to think about the way that you currently sell your product or services. If it’s not going quite as well as you’d like, ask yourself: “What can I learn from Mehrdad the Rug Merchant?”
And always remember … selling is marketing, BUT marketing is not selling.
