Safeguarding Local Flooring Businesses in the Digital Age
The American flooring industry faces unprecedented threats from foreign interests and big tech monopolies. These entities are exploiting local businesses, harvesting data, and undermining fair competition.
They start by gaining our trust - fancy software solutions and a big smile. But then they sell our business data to fill their own pockets. They don't care about us.
THE REAL THREATS FOR AMERICAN FLOORING BUSINESSES:
- STEALING your website leads for their own shadow brands
- BUYING OUT suppliers, causing price surges for independents
- AI-powered pricing algorithms UNDERCUTTING local businesses by 20-30%
- Using ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS to cut illegally minimize costs
- DECEPTIVE online reviews harming local reputations for their own advantage
- FOREIGN MANUFACTURERS flooding the market with HAZARDOUS, NON-COMPLIANT materials to gain price advantage
- PREDATORY FRANCHISING leaving owners with debt and no autonomy
- SELLING CUSTOMER DATA via fine-print loopholes
OUR UNWAVERING STAND FOR AMERICA'S FLOORING HERITAGE:
- EXPOSE and FIGHT flooring tech CONMEN for selling out the dealer
- SUPPORT and GROW American software programmers who don't OUTSOURCE to India
- DEMAND legislative action against PREDATORY FRANCHISE practices
- LAUNCH TV CAMPAIGNS to educate consumers on the true value of local expertise
- LOBBY for a full ban on ALL of China's CHEAP, HAZARDOUS products from saturating the market
- MOBILIZE industry leaders to TESTIFY about unfair market manipulation
- DEVELOP MADE IN THE USA initiatives to bolster domestic manufacturing
- ADVOCATE for fair competition laws to protect the DEALER - not the STEALER
