Trends: Grills
Grill talk...
Of all the product lines we'll discuss this year, few thrill my friend and our Publisher, Patrice Kuhl, more than this week's topic. Indeed, she has been singing the praises of grills for the better part of five years. At last, the industry finally discovered what Patrice has suspected all along: Your customers love the outdoor kitchen.
That noted, let's now note some places that can help you take advantage of this budding romance. For some great background on grills and grilling there are few Web sites better than bbqabout.com. Here, site meister Derrick Riches waxes enthusiastic and knowlegeable about all things grill. Another excellent resource that will help you be a better resource is ConsumerSearch.com, which rates grills and helps you know what works and what doesn't. If you're already selling grills and accessories, I would recommend checking out the clever grill covers from Two Dogs Designs, which give personality to the patio cooking area.
Maybe you have a grill you sell or would like or recommend. Maybe you just like grill talk. Either way, log into our blog and tell us your story. And, by all means, check out the rest of these GCP&S e-Zone features...
