Black Friday Guide: How To Prep For The Best Furniture Sales

As an interior designer, Black Friday is not just another shopping day—it’s an opportunity to source high-quality furniture for your upcoming projects with exclusive trade benefits. Whether you’re working on a residential project, a hospitality space or a commercial interior, Black Friday sales can be the perfect chance to secure those statement pieces that elevate your designs.

However, navigating the sales requires strategy. That’s why we’ve put together a guide to help you make the most of the Black Friday frenzy and score the best deals for your clients’ spaces!

1. EVALUATE THE NEEDS OF YOUR PROJECTS

Before Black Friday begins, take inventory of your ongoing and upcoming projects. Which rooms are you furnishing? Are there any key pieces missing from your design plans? Knowing exactly what you need allows you to focus your search on items that align with your project’s vision and avoid unnecessary purchases.

Create a project-specific furniture list, categorising the essentials—like sofas, dining chairs or armchairs—based on the room’s style, scale and functionality. This list will act as your roadmap when the sales hit.

2. DEFINE CLIENT BUDGETS

As a design professional, you need to be mindful of your clients’ budgets while still delivering the high-quality, well-designed spaces they expect. Black Friday can help you stretch these budgets by providing access to premium pieces at discounted prices.

Establish a clear budget range for each piece or category based on your client’s preferences and the overall project scope. This will help you stay focused on the essentials without compromising on quality.

3. KEEP AN EYE ON EARLY ACCESS SALES

Many furniture brands offer Early Access Black Friday deals, which can be a game-changer for designers working with tight project timelines. These early deals often feature best-selling or exclusive items, and getting ahead of the general public ensures that you won’t miss out on key pieces for your projects.

Sign up for Early Access newsletters from your go-to brands and follow their social media pages to stay updated. Some brands, like Domkapa, provide early access to their clients, allowing them to secure their favourite pieces ahead of the crowd.

4. MEASURE AND PLAN YOUR PROJECTS

With Black Friday’s fast pace, it’s essential to have precise measurements on hand to ensure that the furniture you purchase fits perfectly within your design layout. This will save you headaches down the road when trying to place oversized items into your client’s space.

Double-check your floor plans and ensure you have accurate dimensions for each room, doorway and window. This way, when you find that perfect sofa or bed, you can confidently make a purchase, knowing it will fit seamlessly into your design.

5. ADD THE FINAL TOUCHES

Once you’ve secured the big-ticket items, don’t forget about the smaller accents. Black Friday is a fantastic time to find discounts on decorative accessories—think poufs, benches, rugs and artwork—that will complete your design.

Even small savings on accents can make a big difference in your budget, and they add that final layer of sophistication to your project.
