Stone World magazine had the opportunity to speak to Frank Sciarrino, the chief operating officer of Quote Countertops, about the stone industry moving forward.

FS: If there’s a single lesson or takeaway from the COVID-19 pandemic, it’s that the way we’ve done business in the past has forever changed. Lockdowns prevented face-to-face selling, and consumers flocked online looking for solutions. Our customers noted that traffic to their digital and social platforms spiked. They generated increased leads through their online design and quoting tools, they took their showroom visits virtually by connecting with prospects and customers through Zoom and other video conferencing, and as a result closed business even when their showrooms were not accessible to in-person visits. They don’t see these workarounds to conducting business changing anytime soon.
