"I started working with Atlantic Bedding and Furniture while attending college. When I saw how easy it was and how much potential income was at my finger tips, I knew I had to own my own store. Now that I have graduated, I have a better quality of life than most 26-year-olds. In fact, I now make more money than my parents and I have taken more vacations since January than I had the previous 20 plus years of my life combined. The flexible schedule suits my lifestyle and words cannot express how thankful I am that I have this opportunity."

"I first heard about Atlantic Bedding and Furniture through some buddies I played football with in college. They had all worked at our first location together in Charleston, SC in 2006-2007. They were bragging to me about how much fun they were having and how much money they were making selling furniture. By the time I finished college, they had all opened their own successful locations up and down the east coast, and I decided I needed to give it a try. I learned how to sell in North Charleston and still hold the company record for most sales in a two-week period. I saved up my money and in less than a year, opened up my own location. I now have a flexible schedule and I'm my own boss, two things I never thought I'd have this quickly. AB&F truly is the opportunity of a lifetime."

"We found Atlantic Bedding and Furniture on Craigslist in Jacksonville, FL in 2009 as a customer. At the time, Trae was a Real Estate Agent in a horribly failing market and was looking for something new to do. Trae opened the St. Augustine location in September 2009 and began slowly growing his business. I was laid off in May 2010 after 14 years as a Human Resources professional and the timing was perfect. Trae had grown the business to the point he could no longer handle it alone. In a little more than 2 years, our business has grown from 1,000 square feet to 6,500 square feet and we were recently named the "Best Furniture Store in St. Augustine." We are proud to be a part of the Atlantic Bedding and Furniture family and we are excited about what we are able to do for people in this down economy on a daily basis. We love what we do and the people we meet everyday. Someone once said, "If you love what you do, you will never work another day of your life." That is definitely true for us."

"I've worked a number of different jobs and had many different bosses. Most of my experience was in the corporate world, and I decided I needed a change. I wanted to be my own boss and I though about some guys I had met a few years back. I bought a bunch of furniture from them at the Atlantic Bedding location in Charlotte, NC. They seemed to be happy and were having a great time while making good money. They were younger than me and had their own company and that's when I decided it was time for me to make my own opportunity in life. Fast forward to today, I have an AB&F location and I am having great success. It was an amazing opportunity, the freedom and flexibility to control my own destiny was exactly what I was searching for and the quality of life this company has provided as an owner just simply can't be beat."
