| What’s A Good Vendor Relationship Worth? |
Is It Always About Price?
How many times have you selected the lowest bidder on a project only to have your framing projects delayed, been disappointed in the quality of the work and the materials and/or spent hours micro-managing the project? A Quality Frame Shop Is a Designer's Best FriendSimply stated, a quality framer can make an interior designer's job so much easier. Like any building contractor is only as good as the sub contractors he employs, designers rely on a host of "subs" (painters, flooring specialists, furniture makers, window covering manufacturers and picture framers) to complete the job and make them look good in the process. Your framing partner proves their worth on every job. A reliable framer knows his business and can handily show you moldings, mattes, finishes and display options in every price point. A good framer will save you time and money by giving you superior looks and alternatives you would have spent hours researching on your own.For example: Tony's carries over 5000 samples that can be loaned out and we stock virtually every brand available ( that's 700,000 molding choices alone). We can work with virtually any budget and make the project (and you) look simply marvelous! Framing Is More Than a CommoditySuccessful frame shops do not just provide designers with a commodity, they provide solutions that are often critical to the overall look and feel of your projects. A relationship with a quality frame shop will pay off in spades, saving you money, time and headaches. Need a friend in the business? I encourage you to call us and see just how valuable a relationship like this can be. By Chris Andrews

After service, communications, quality (control and assurance) and response times... yeah, it's about price! We all want the absolute best price we can get (especially in today's economic environment) but... and it's a BIG but... only after our expectations for quality, timeliness and value have been met.
