Guarantee satisfaction before you buy

If you’re in the market for a new mattress, we’re guessing you’re overwhelmed and frustrated. In some ways, buying a new mattress is as daunting as buying life insurance – it’s not humanly impossible to compare apples to apples.

But with a little information, encouragement and direction, it’s not as difficult a task as you think.

Research mattresses

If you’re reading this, you’re already sussing out the 411 on mattresses. Four out of five mattress shoppers begin online and visit at least five companies before going to a brick and mortar store.

But how do you sort the flurry of data coming your way?

• Blogs – Start searching keywords in Google Blogs to find what others are saying about mattress shopping – there are a lot of them talking. Try phrases like “Mattress Shopping” or “New Bed.” Bookmark what you find so you can compare what bloggers say to what the company says. If the two don’t match up, it might not be the right mattress for you.
• Print it off – If the sites you’re using have comparison charts, print them off for your in-store questions.
• Chat – If you’re on Facebook or Twitter, ask your family and friends what they’re sleeping on. You’ll be amazed at how much people are willing to share about what they love (and what they can live without) in online mattress reviews.

Take it off-line

There’s nothing quite like visiting a brick and mortar mattress store and jumping on a few mattresses. Seriously, it’s the most important part of the process. At the end of your shopping, the mattress just has to feel good, right?

Talk, talk, talk to as many sales reps as you can.

Ask what’s in each mattress and why. If your sales rep can’t answer your questions, it’s time to move onto to someone who can.

After-Purchase Satisfaction

If you’ve done your homework, many happy, sleep-filled nights await. But why stop there? Visit the company online (again) and tell them what you think of your new mattress. Your experiences may help another shopper navigate through the thorny thicket of mattress shopping.

And you know doing a good deed always help you sleep better, right?
