Use HubSpot AI to follow up furniture shoppers without hiring more staff
Michael Grossman, fourth-generation owner of Kensington Furniture, a single-store furniture retailer in Northfield, New Jersey
The team uses AI daily on practical friction, especially product attribution (measurements, features, materials). With HubSpot, they use AI to improve follow-up communication and nurture new and past customers. Grossman also notes customers already use AI to visualize Kensington pieces in their own rooms before visiting.
