At the recent 2014 WithIt Professional Conference, we met with some of the home industry’s most influential leaders who shared several current trends in the industry, including home fashions and furnishings styles, demographics and marketing to potential buyers.

The following video includes insight from Vicki Payne, host of For Your Home TV; Sherry Lusardi, buyer for Morris Home Furnishings; Dorian Sims, president of Stacy Furniture; Trish Mueller, chief marketing officer for The Home Depot; and Kelly Peterson, group advertising director at Hearst (brands include Elle Décor, HGTV Magazine and House Beautiful).
