ArizonaRealCountry.com 19 October 2018 advertiser highlight Featuring Furniture Solutions FAMILY-OWNED AND OPERATED FURNITURE SOLUTIONS, located at 15472 N. 99th Ave., Suite 3, in Sun City, has been furnishing homes across the West Valley with moderately- priced, mostly American-made furniture since 1995. Furniture Solutions owner Wendy Fortner literally grew up in the home furnishings industry and still does business the old-fashioned way. "My parents owned several stores and I worked in many as a buyer, manager, and salesperson," she explains. "I recognize each customer individually and treat them equally as important, whether they're purchasing a lamp or enough furniture to fill an entire home. Every sale counts and every customer is valued." We were able to get this energetic lady to sit down for just a minute to answer some questions for us. What is your favorite Halloween activity? Handing out candy and seeing how cute the kids are in their costumes. As a business owner, what are your top 3 priorities? Offering the best quality products for my customer’s dollar, exceeding our customer’s expectations and having the utmost integrity when dealing with our vendors, customers, and employees. The tastiest pumpkin flavored item and where do you go for a taste of fall? Pumpkin pie with lots of cool whip. I fell once in our parking lot and tasted asphalt… yuck! What room do you like to help customers decorate most? I can’t narrow it down to one. I like decorating every room in a home. The best thing a customer can say about you and your staff? That we under promise and over deliver. We hear all the time “we wish we would have known about you sooner.” We love that! What would you grab if your house was on fire? My dogs, my purse and my bible. Most underrated accent piece? There is no such thing, however, I am not a fan of accent walls which are very popular right now. I liken them to paneling which at one time was the “in” thing. I think there is a high probability of getting tired of a wood design or a darkly painted wall very quickly.
