V2k. Weird Name. Beautiful New Concept In Window Fashions.

(Thursday, December 15, 2005) - People are usually curious when they hear the name v2k The Virtual Window Fashion Store. And that's okay, according to v2k franchise owners. It gives them the opportunity to show off an exclusive computer software program that makes this custom window coverings concept so different. Thanks to the proprietary v2k software, designers are able to go to clients' homes, armed not only with samples of top-quality window covering options, but also with a laptop computer that lets customers see how virtually any window treatment will look on their own windows before they make an investment. According to v2k owners, this unique system is well worth any explaining they do for the somewhat odd first impression the name may conjure.

"Yeah, it's a mouthful, but the name makes sense when you hear the story behind it," Dale Parrott says. Dale and his father-in-law John McDonald have recently gone in together on a v2k franchise in the Sugar Land area, and they have found most customers are quick to see how this weird little idea gives them a completely new way to look at window fashions for their home. "Customers love the idea that we can plug their window measurements into the computer and show them virtually any window treatment right then and there. We can price it, change it, and price it again, all at the touch of a key. It's fun."

Debbie Mohr, who owns the territory for central Houston agrees. "I canÆt tell you how many times people have stopped me in the middle of answering the phone to ask, 'what in the world is a v2k?,' but when customers see how our system works, they really like it. Most customers already have great ideas in their head. This technology is just a tool to help them get those ideas out. Once we do that, we also have the real fabric, the real wood, the real hardware samples for them to touch and feel and hold up against their walls."

Anna Dixon works with clients in the Clear Lake area. "What I love about my new little laptop is the flexibility it offers," says Anna. "I can use the software to create virtually unlimited design options - from blinds and shutters to cellular shades and draperies - and show clients how the treatments will look on their specific windows before they buy a thing. Our prices are very competitive, and we have top name brands, so people really get it all with us. We measure, create, even handle the installation. And clients never have to leave their own living room to shop."

Each v2k The Virtual Window Fashion Store is independently owned and operated. There are four locations throughout the Houston area. They will be displaying the software and window treatment options at booths 907 and 909 at the 7th Annual Texas Home and Garden Show, October 25 - 27, at Reliant Center.
