We’re quickly approaching the eve of this spring’s High Point Market so on today’s episode, I’m diving in with some tips on how to maximize your High Point Market experience. High Point is the world’s largest furniture market with 12 million square feet of showroom. Whether you’ve been before or you’re a complete newbie planning your very first visit, it is going to be an epic experience–but you always need to go in with a plan.
I want your experience at High Point to be stress free so you can experience all that it has to offer you as a creative person. High Point is one of those rare places where you really can connect with designers at every level of the market and from anywhere in the world. When you are around your people you can let your guard down, share your personal expertise and learn from others. It’s an amazing place to refresh and just see what is out there. My goal is to prepare you for the experience and lend you some of my expert tips for getting around, planning your visit, and making the most of your time there, so that you can enjoy all the excitement of high Point and none of the stress.
There are a bunch of resources linked in the show notes for you to take advantage of throughout your visit. I am also sharing where you can find me at High Point, because I’ve got some cool stuff going on that you probably want in on!
In this episode, you will hear:
- Where to find me and the exciting opportunites I’m offering throughout the weekend
- Recommendations for my personal favorite showrooms, social experiences, and more
