....my sale was a dream come true. It was filled with the sadness of closure, the joy of what the business represented to so many women, and merchandise that became totally irresistable...

I know how to run a business (61 years)—not how to close it down. . . Mine would not have been a successful retirement without Natelsons.
Joe Savino Adam’s & Madam New Providence, NJ
Natelsons did a fantastic job. The response from my vendors and my bank was phenomenal…I got so much positive feedback from my suppliers because I was one of the few guys who was proactive, who had a plan to deal with the toughest couple of months in modern memory. One of my reservations was that I didn’t want to cheapen my image,….I wasn’t going out of business, I was simply renovating my store, and I had an image to maintain.” Visiting another New Jersey retailer who was staging a similar sale helped ease my concerns. “It was seamless to my customers…"

On the 1st day of January 2008 I knew that we would have to close our store by the end of the year. I also knew that I would have to hire outside help if I were to get the most out of our store closing sale. After researching and talking with a number of "specialists", I decided that Natelsons was the best fit for me. The help and guidance and results that Natelsons provided surpassed all expectations. The numbers that were projected, which I actually scoffed at, were not only met, but exceeded. The signing, the telephone promotions, and the additional purchasing of merchandise had customers coming back week after week. At the end of the sale, there was NOT ONE piece of merchandise left in the store. I would strongly recommend Natelsons to any businessman who is faced with having to either help run a store closing sale or a cash raising sale. If you want to talk to me personally, feel free to contact me at 301-424-8441.

Your field personnel are such consummate pros that there are not enough words to praise the hard work and professional manner put forth when they make visits to the store for set-up and inventories.
Howard Cohn Cohn & Stern, Inc. Chicago, IL
In 2005 we decided to close our family men’s clothing store which had been in business for over 54 years. It was a difficult and emotional time for us. There are tough and emotional decisions to make leading up to the actual sale, and how to proceed while the sale is in progress. Natelsons was absolutely great in helping us with these decisions. They were professional, but very empathetic in how they lead us through the process. Their predictions on volume were extremely accurate, the quality of their inventory was outstanding, and all the advertising was timed perfectly to continue to bring traffic into the store during the sale. We exceeded the volume that we imagined we could do, and our bottom line was certainly more than if we had run the sale ourselves. Since our sale I recommended Natelsons to a few other retailers, and they had the same experience as ours. I highly recommend Natelsons, they are a great organization to work with.
