Through a combination of planned business strategies intended to help weather the pandemic and the growing popularity of its pulldown mounts, MantelMount, a manufacturer of mounting products for flatscreen televisions, is expanding both its offices and its staff.
The company was previously located in a single office in Carlsbad’s Bressi Ranch Village Center, housing all departments and functions. Now, due to the company’s growth, MantelMount has expanded into three separate office suites and a warehouse area in Faraday Business Park. These new offices will house the wholesale team, with the former space being used to accommodate larger creative and accounting teams.
“The dedication of our employees, along with the vision and perseverance of management, helped us not only stay afloat but achieve great growth and even break into new markets,” notes Lee Marc, CEO of MantelMount.
“Without them, I’m not sure we’d still be around, much less expanding.”
MantelMount states that some of the company’s highlights over the past year include:
- Launching the new MM710 mount, along with an upgrade to the company’s Robotic MM860
- Adding new patents
- Maintaining inventory to meet demand, despite the logistic and tariff challenges
- Making headway into new channels, i.e., schools, restaurants, and builders
- Improving dealer and distributor collateral
- Engaging an experienced contractor to support dealers with challenging installs
Ultimately, according to the company, the expansion of the offices and staff will be a major benefit to MantelMount’s customers, both the end-users and the dealers who sell the company’s mounts.
“Our new offices and expanded staff will be able to provide resources that will benefit both end-users and dealers, such as two studios in our warehouse area: one that will be used to address and solve customer installation issues, and one for dealer training,” adds Marc.
“Our expanded creative team will be able to produce more effective collateral for selling MantelMount products, while helping customers better understand the benefits of our pulldown mounts. This move, and the resources that come with it, will have a positive impact on everyone connected with the company, including our own people.”
