Cast furniture with a mosaic embellished with artificial stone has become hit of the season. It is hard to surpass artificial stone in terms of practicality and too difficult to compete with it: it is lighter than natural stone, and its surface is smoother, so there is less dirt on it. Moreover, artificial materials are significantly cheaper and with modern technologies such stones look not worse than natural stone.
Experts say that last season, Europe metal furniture with perforation on the table, seat and backrest is popular. It is very easy: looks modern and tame, and therefore can be suitable for establishment specializing is any cuisine. This summer chairs which are made of metal frame and the seat itself – of durable and smooth synthetic fabric are also very common. They are very lightweight, can be of different colors and do not require special care.
Restaurateurs don’t forget about furniture with a metal bases well, primarily because of the fundamental criterion in choosing furniture- it should be durable and reliable.

Modern technologies provide people with the materials that may decorate any place. Even a small coffee shop on the corner of the street may look as good as the most expensive restaurant if the furniture is chosen in accordance with style of establishment.

In addition to your presentation content and delivery, how you dress and present yourself can affect the success of your presentation. Like your non-verbal communications, how you dress should support the message you are communicating and not distract from it. What you wear is particularly important in a high-stakes presentation, but it’s also important in any presentation, especially if it’s your first time speaking to this audience or you’re very nervous.

Here are 5 tips for dressing for success while presenting, no matter what the occasion:

1. Dress appropriately
What is considered appropriate depends on the audience and the venue. For example, if I’m performing improv comedy for entertainment at the monthly meeting of a women’s social club, I usually wear nice jeans. If I’m doing an improv workshop at a Fortune 500 company, however, I wear a business suit. If you’re not sure what is appropriate, ask the meeting planner or the person who invited you to speak. And if you’re not sure what looks good on you or what is age-appropriate, consult a style expert like Teresa or work with the personal shopping service at any major department store.

2. Dress comfortably
No, I’m not talking about wearing sweats or pajamas, but appropriate clothes that allow you to breathe and feel comfortable. For example, if you’re wearing high-heeled shoes that hurt your feet or pants with a tight waistband, you will not be focused on communicating your message. I have a client who feels very warm when she’s nervous – so I suggested she avoid heavy sweaters and instead, wear layers so she can remove a layer (like a jacket) if she’s feeling too warm.

3. Do a dress rehearsal
If your outfit is not something you’re used to wearing, practice wearing it while delivering your presentation. For example, if you normally wear khaki pants and a polo shirt, practice wearing the suit and tie so you’re not fidgeting with the tie or your shirt collar instead of focusing on your message.

4. Consider your props
If you’ll be wearing a lavaliere or clip-on microphone, plan ahead how you will wear it. Lavaliere microphones can be clipped easily on a tie or jacket lapel, but if you don’t have one of those, you have to figure out where else you can clip it. Also plan where you will put the microphone unit, especially if you don’t have a pocket or sturdy waistband.

5. Bring or wear something meaningful
Many of my clients find it helpful to have with them an item with special meaning. Especially if you’re nervous, having some kind of physical reminder of something special can help calm your nerves. For example, you could wear a necklace that your husband gave you, the watch you received when you got promoted or the ring you bought on your vacation to Hawaii. You could even keep something in your pocket, like a religious medal, or bring a special pen or business card case. Of course, you should not play with the item while speaking and it shouldn’t be distracting (no bracelets that clink loudly when you move your arm). The item is not a superstitious good luck charm, but a reminder of support and a boost of confidence.

When you do a final check in the mirror before you present, you should be able to smile at yourself and feel confident. If you follow these 5 tips, you and your audience will be able to focus on your presentation rather than being distracted by your clothes.

It seems to me that for years, and to this day, many dealers are content to manage their showrooms and showroom traffic. Print, radio, TV, and billboard advertising are the security blankets used to drive this traffic. But what type of traffic is it? Are these high-margin customers? Are they loyal? Will they be back for service?

Contrast this approach with one that actually has a relationship with its customers. I contend that the dealership that invests some of its ad/marketing budget in community good, along with a life-cycle marketing approach to customer contact and conversation, will benefit more in the long-run. Granted this is not a method for overnight success. It will take some time, not forever, but some time to implement. A strategy however, of truly involving ones dealership in both the community, and its customer-base will ultimately deliver far better results. We’ve seen it in our clients; margins increase, service retention improves, and their customer databases actually grow. Best of all, they’re not selling on price!

This reversal in mindset may be a tough sell in an industry that has operated one-way for so long, but I’d argue it’s a cultural shift that will pay huge dividends to the dealerships that employ it. After all, customers and the people in your community talk. In fact, they talk a lot. Would you rather that conversation be about how your dealership was there helping? Or instead, how they couldn’t actually get the “great deal” you advertised?
