The InterioApp team on a night out in London

That got your attention, didn't it :)

Wine, music, great people. And now that you've stopped scrolling, I have about ten seconds before you keep going. So here's my pitch.

Ready? We make InterioApp. It turns made-to-measure blinds and curtains into something you can actually sell online, with a real price on the spot. And for the team in the showroom, it builds a full quote in seconds instead of an afternoon lost in spreadsheets. Quote, customer, order, all in one place.

There. Ten seconds :) Now here's the actual point:

What a night out taught me about selling window coverings in the age of AI

What I just did to you is what the whole world does all day now. Grab attention, pitch fast, try to sell. Your inbox does it. Every ad does it. Every feed does it. And these days AI does most of the heavy lifting too. It writes the emails, builds the lists, drafts the ads. The pitching part is basically free now.

So if a machine can pitch, what is actually left that's worth anything? The two things it can't fake. Getting someone to genuinely look. And being someone they trust enough to buy from.

That's the whole lesson for retail and selling online. Make it stupidly easy for a customer to say yes, then put your people on the part no AI can do. The advice, the taste, the trust. InterioApp handles the boring half so your team gets to be the half people remember.

Anyway. That was your ten seconds.

And yes, this whole post was the lesson. A party photo got you here, a quick pitch kept you, and you read all the way to the bottom. That part is still on us humans. For now.

Okay, one last thing. You actually read to the end, so I feel like I owe you something.

If you make a living from bespoke window coverings, here's a little something for you. A free 30 minute demo, and 50 percent off your setup. Just use the code CHAD, named after my mate surfing across the dance floor 👇. His name's on his swim shorts, have a look.
