Welcome to Inside the Frame, where we explore the world of custom picture framing and so much more! I'm your host, Tracey Harlan, owner of The Frame Shoppe in Augusta, Georgia.
In this episode, I chatted with Marsha Stollar, an independent sales rep with a passion for framing that has spanned her entire career.
Marsha's journey into the framing world began by chance when she was working at a cafe next to a frame shop. Little did she know that this chance encounter would lead to a lifelong passion and career. Throughout our conversation, Marsha shares her experiences transitioning from a frame shop designer to an independent sales rep and how she's built her business representing six different frame lines. Her insights into the industry, from spotting trends to educating customers, offer a unique perspective on the evolving world of custom framing.
As we talked, Marsha's enthusiasm for the industry shone through. She emphasized building relationships, staying connected through social media, and constantly learning from others. Her approach to sales is more than just showing samples – it's about partnering with frame shops to help them succeed and grow. Whether you're a seasoned framer or new to the industry, Marsha's stories and advice offer valuable insights into custom framing.
