BEST BUY Business Gardner-White Furniture User Manual
An incentive program partnership has proven to help increase customer traffic and sales.
The client
Gardner-White Furniture is family-owned and operated, with 12 furniture and bedding retail stores in the greater Detroit metro area. Since opening its doors in 1912, Gardner-White’s mission has been unchanged: to offer the best deals on great furniture at a variety of price points. They also pride themselves on offering a wide selection of furniture at great/competitive prices throughout Michigan.
The challenge
Gardner-White was looking to increase store traffic and sales with a Gift With Purchase program. They had been looking for an incentives partner that could make it easy to implement for their operations team and ensure there was a seamless way to fulfil the gifts to their customers. They wanted to be a differentiator in the marketplace by offering the latest in small appliances and technology. That’s when they turned to Best Buy® Business over 13 years ago and it has been going strong ever since.
The solution
A seamless, end-to-end Gift With Purchase program was envisioned and ultimately achieved. It has been a 13-year success story, as a Best Buy Business Account Executive explains, “Gardner-White will market a specific gift in their marketing. A consumer sees that, and that drives them into the store.” A Best Buy Business dedicated Account Manager met with them to understand their goals and customize a Gift With Purchase Strategy leveraging their knowledge of purchasing behaviours and deciding which tech gifts will help entice the customer. Here’s how the program works: A Best Buy Business Account Manager collaborates to find the right gifts that Gardner-White customers are excited about receiving.
It also offers

We’re the only ones in this city that are advertising furniture with electronics, or mattresses with electronics, and Best Buy Business allows us to be unique in the marketplace. We can give customers that added gift: that something special that they want and need, and they come back for more.”
Lynn Sebastian, Gardner-White Director of Sales adds, “The Gift With The Purchase program through Best Buy Business brings a lot of customers into our doors.”And that’s been popular with the customers; I love it from a business point of view because we don’t have to inventory product,” Barb continues. “We don’t have to anticipate what everybody wants. A customer picks what they want, and their satisfaction level, I believe, has gone way up.”As the Account Manager concludes, “In situations and relationships like this, it’s always important to allow the client to do what they do best.
