Wayfair teams with Porch.com to offer home-improvement help
Wayfair, one of the largest online destinations for all things home, has teamed up with Porch.com to connect shoppers with professionals offering a variety of services, from installing a light fixture to assembling a bookcase.
[...] the nation's largest consumer electronics chain, Best Buy, is making some tweaks to its Geek Squad to be more chic, ditching the Volkswagen Beetles that its army of tech workers drove for Toyota Prius C hybrids.
The strategy should help eliminate returns as shoppers will more easily be able to get help assembling the bookcase or installing a light fixture.
Porch.com's CEO and Chairman Matt Ehrlichman noted his company has teamed up with home improvement retailer Lowe's at all of its more than 1,700 stores nationwide.
