We desperately needed help when we hired Pam. We had just moved our business and were embarking on changing homes. She took care of everything from packing to planning the appropriate placement in our new home. It was a natural progression that she stay on and help us decorate. We were so pleased that we hired her to help merchandise the housewares department in our store. Sales are up 28%. Need we say more?
