Serta Simmons Bedding Unveils Limited-Edition Sleep Collection with Nate Berkus

By Taylor Beckstead, Vice President of Beautyrest, Serta Simmons Bedding (SSB)

At Beautyrest, we strongly believe consumers should not have to choose between comfort and style. On the heels of the launch of our luxury Beautyrest Black® lineup, today we are unveiling our latest design-led sleep collaboration – the Beautyrest® by Nate Berkus Collection.

Celebrity interior designer Nate Berkus has transformed countless homes around the world through his approachable and elevated design philosophy. Today, he is extending his design vision to his new sleep collection which includes an assortment of mattresses, mattress protectors and down pillows, marking Nate’s first foray in these categories.

The new Beautyrest by Nate Berkus Collection features:

Nate’s Signature Design – Nate is known for his timeless design style. He created an exclusive print for the Beautyrest sleep collection which is a fresh take on a classic herringbone pattern. The mattresses, which are available in varying levels of firmness, feature a white and gray design with black accents. Similarly, the waterproof mattress protector and down pillows lean into that same aesthetic in all white with black accents.

Conscious Design – We are always looking for ways to incorporate materials that are better for the environment. Every item in the Beautyrest by Nate Berkus collection incorporates SEAQUAL™ Fabric technology, which upcycles recovered plastics from the ocean into a durable and luxurious fabric. For example, each queen mattress includes 50 plastic bottles recovered from the ocean.

Elevated Performance and Technology – The Beautyrest by Nate Berkus mattresses also feature the latest innovations in support, comfort, and cooling that work together in harmony to offer a better night of sleep. For more information on the specific features and technology, visit Beautyrest.com.

As a busy designer and parent, Nate shares our company’s mission to help people sleep better so they can live healthier lives. We are excited to bring his design aesthetic to Beautyrest as our latest in a series of design-led launches and collaborations from the Serta Simmons Bedding portfolio of brands.

Black is the New Black – Serta Simmons Bedding Introduces New Design-Led Mattress Collection with Latest Beautyrest Black® Launch

By Taylor Beckstead, Vice President of Beautyrest, Serta Simmons Bedding (SSB)

With the essential nature of sleep being recognized now more than ever, at SSB we are focused every day on offering high quality and innovative sleep solutions across our portfolio that help people sleep better so they can live healthier lives. And, with style continuing to climb the ranks as a top reason consumers pick their mattress, we are similarly focused on marrying industry-leading comfort with high-impact design. 

With that in mind, today we are excited to announce our latest Beautyrest Black® Collection which takes luxury mattress design and aesthetics to the next level. 

The new Beautyrest Black line features: 

  • Trend-Right Design – We approached the design process for Beautyrest Black as if it was a fashion launch. In fact, our in-house design team is led by Lauren Lauricella who has a background in fashion design. Lauren and her team leveraged trends in luxury home furnishings as well as fashion to inform the collection’s bold, all-black aesthetic, geometric accents and subtle pops of color (which delineate the different options in the line).  
  • Luxury Materials – Luxury isn’t just in the look, it’s also in the feel. For the first time, we incorporated luxury materials, such as cashmere, in the mattress cover. We also included a new comfort layer in our higher-end models, which is infused with alpaca, cashmere and silk fibers, for airflow and breathability.  
  • Premium Performance and Support – The performance of the mattress matches the line’s premium aesthetic. Beautyrest Black features our new targeted, zoned support system leveraging the brand’s patented T3 Pocketed Coil® Technology which absorbs energy to reduce motion transfer for more uninterrupted sleep, and helps provide up to 21% more support where people need it most (in the center of their mattress).* The collection also features new plant-based cooling technology.** More information on specific product features can be found at Beautyrest.com

With the new Beautyrest Black launch, we are introducing our full line of traditional and hybrid models in tandem for the first time, offering consumers a full suite of options with a unified look. 

Beautyrest Black was first introduced in 2006. Over the past 16 years, the line has grown to become one of our most coveted collections. Our latest iteration leans into design like we never have before, offering consumers the perfect combination of premium comfort and luxury style.

Beautyrest® Launches New Products at Las Vegas Market

New lines offer simplified brand architecture, build on Beautyrest’s legacy of innovation

(ATLANTA – Jan. 25, 2019) – The Beautyrest® brand, one of the industry’s leading mattress brands, is excited to premier its new products at this month’s Las Vegas Market. Featuring a simplified brand architecture, the 2019 Beautyrest portfolio will include new offerings within the Beautyrest Black®, Beautyrest Silver® and Beautyrest CompleteTM lines as well as the launch of the new Beautyrest Hybrid line and a new promotional Beautyrest line.

“Our goal for 2019 is to have a major impact on the retail landscape by being more consumer-centric in our overall approach, and this is evident in both our new product introductions and our marketing messages,” said Vice President, Beautyrest Marketing, Cara Finger. “We’ve structured our new lines with easy-to-understand step-up stories and model names that reinforce the benefits that each line offers; plus, we’re adopting an omnichannel marketing program so customers will have a consistent experience each time they encounter the brand. By pairing these efforts with benefits-driven messaging, we are making it simpler than ever for customers to realize how Beautyrest helps them Be More Awake.”

BEAUTYREST BLACK
Since its inception, Beautyrest Black has represented the culmination of Beautyrest’s greatest achievements in innovation and design, and 2019 marks the launch of a new Beautyrest Black line that continues this tradition. The new collection includes 12 new models offered in three luxury classes – dubbed L-ClassTM, C-ClassTM and K-ClassTM – with distinctive appearance, highly sophisticated engineering and unparalleled cooling and comfort.

With prices ranging from $1,799 to $3,899, the new Beautyrest Black line showcases T3 Pocketed Coil® Technology, an exclusive design that weaves three steel strands into one coil to absorb energy, reduce motion and provide exceptional resilience for support, durability and undisturbed sleep. The line also features BlackICETM 4.0 Technology, which uses four cooling methods in the brand’s most advanced temperature-management system for cooler, better sleep, as well as specially curated memory foams to reduce pressure points in the hips and shoulders. Select models include the new RightTempTM Memory Foam infused with highly conductive and strong carbon fiber for temperature management and durability.

Beautyrest Black continues to visually distinguish itself on the retail floor with a new sophisticated charcoal gray double-channel quilted border and a modern chevron pattern on the top of the mattress, which adds interest by creating the illusion of motion. L-Class models feature this top panel in a white background with gray pattern while C-Class and K-Class beds display the design in a gray background with white lines. All models also feature an updated medallion design with a simplified logo for a more modern look.

BEAUTYREST HYBRID
Beautyrest Hybrid is a new line designed with one goal in mind: a more conforming mattress. While Beautyrest established the hybrid mattress category in 2008, the 2019 Beautyrest Hybrid line will be the first stand-alone hybrid collection for the brand.

Priced from $999 to $2,299, the new Beautyrest Hybrid line leverages Beautyrest’s history within the hybrid category and features eight models, which rely on key technologies to help sleepers obtain their best rest. Beautyrest Hybrid features the world’s premier support system – its 1000 Series Beautyrest Pocketed Coil

Technology provides motion separation for undisturbed sleep, along with enhanced conforming properties and individualized back support. The exclusive ContourFitTM Design offers a superior stretch and recovery surface, which allows sleepers to engage more closely with pressure-relieving memory foams for deeper, easier sleep.

Models also incorporate one of three hybrid cooling technologies – InfiniCoolTM, a cool-to-the-touch fabric on the mattress sleeping surface; InfiniCool-Plus, which features two cool-to-the-touch layers, on the cover and just below the cover, to offer a cool sensation while falling asleep; or InfiniCool MAX, which pairs the cooling power of InfiniCool-Plus with a layer of RightTemp Memory Foam to pull heat away from the body during the night.

Select models include additional pressure-relieving comfort and support layers, including HD Memory Foam, Beautyrest Gel Memory Foam, Comfort ResponseTM Latex, or BackCare® 3X, a layer of 2,000 additional micro coils that provide triple the number of supporting coils for enhanced pressure relief and conforming comfort.

All Beautyrest Hybrid models are guaranteed to offer lasting comfort, with the line’s warranty reflecting a 3⁄4” impression tolerance. Aesthetically, models feature a chevron pattern on the top panel that ties it to the new Beautyrest Black line but uses lighter gray and yellow tones for a distinct look.

NEW BEAUTYREST SILVER LINE
Premiering this January are 13 Beautyrest Silver models ranging in price from $699 to $1,099. All mattresses in the line focus on offering increased durability, a fresh and cool sleep environment, and pressure-relieving comfort.

Designed to be 15 percent more durable than previous Beautyrest Silver mattresses, the 2019 Beautyrest Silver line includes the world’s premier support system with 900 Series Beautyrest Pocketed Coil Technology, which is paired with either DualCoolTM or DualCool Plus Technologies to maintain comfort during sleep. DualCool Technology keeps the mattress fresh and cool through an antimicrobial performance layer that moves heat and moisture away, while DualCool Plus Technology adds a moisture-wicking technology to the cover to create a comfortable sleeping environment.

Select models also feature Dynamic ResponseTM Memory Foam, which has a supportive and unique feel to optimize every move with conforming back support, or GelTouch® Foam for soothing comfort with exceptional surface contouring and conformability.

BEAUTYREST COMPLETE ADJUSTABLE BASES
For 2019, Beautyrest is introducing three new adjustable bases in its Beautyrest Complete product line, building upon the collection’s original pillow, pillow cover and mattress cover offerings. This new adjustable base lineup enables customers to complete their sleep system at any price point with distinct feature sets.

Priced at $499, $799 and $1,699, the Beautyrest Complete adjustable bases are distinctly different, catering to specific customer needs. Base offerings include:

  • The Beautyrest Simple Motion Base provides basic motion functions, such as head and foot elevation, which are controlled via wireless remote. This $499 model features a slim profile with single-height legs as well as an attractive performance mesh fabric.
  • The Beautyrest Advanced Motion Base pairs motion with convenience. This $799 model has a slim profile, massage, USB charging ports and Zero-G preset position. Choose from one of three leg heights or remove the legs for use in a platform bed for added flexibility.
  • The Beautyrest Black Luxury Base includes beautiful styling along with modern luxury extras. Featuring a furniture-like sleek profile and upholstery-like woven fabric, this $1,699 base marries perfectly with any Beautyrest Black mattress. Natural movements like full head tilt, adjustable lumbar and extended recline are designed to cradle and support more naturally than other bases in any lounge position. The Beautyrest Black Luxury Base is also smart home-enabled, so all of its features, like under-bed lighting, can be controlled through Amazon Echo and Google Home.

BEAUTYREST
The new Beautyrest line offers the peaceful, undisturbed rest that accompanies Pocketed Coil Technology to those who desire value along with quality sleep. Priced at $399 to $699, the line’s seven models offer the world’s premier support system at attainable price points, with 800 Series Pocketed Coil Technology that reduces partner disturbance up to 40 percent when compared with an open-coil mattress.

All models include DualCool Technology to maintain an ideal sleep temperature, while Gel Memory Foam Lumbar Support or GelTouch Foam is available in certain models.

Beautyrest Urges Consumers to Be More Awake

ATLANTA, May 2, 2018 /PRNewswire/ — Beautyrest®, a leader in the mattress industry, will launch its new Be More Awake campaign on May 14th, which highlights the impact sleep has on our waking success and challenges consumers to rethink the role the mattress plays in our everyday lives. Each element in the campaign emphasizes the direct connection between the power of sleep and our ability to reach our full potential.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t47Xs6guxQw

The new multi-media campaign, which includes national TV spots, social and digital content, showcases how people have become accustomed to accepting insufficient sleep. Through visceral elements and bold imagery, the new campaign underscores the value of a premium mattress in making you more present, focused and energized the next day. Building excellent mattresses is something Beautyrest has been perfecting for close to 150 years through its research, continued innovation and development of unparalleled mattress technologies.

“The Be More Awake campaign reminds consumers that in order to reach their full personal potential, they need a mattress with advanced technology, and one that fits their individual needs,” said Warren Kornblum, chief marketing officer at Serta Simmons Bedding. “The Beautyrest brand, along with our retail partners, is uniquely positioned to guide consumers through the purchase journey to find their own best mattress. We don’t believe that one mattress design fits all people. Ultimate restorative sleep can only be achieved by sleeping on the perfect mattress for you and that is likely not the same one that’s perfect for me. It’s time to talk about the elements that make up an exceptional sleep experience rather than one-size-fits-all.”

To further emphasize the impact an optimal sleep experience can have on one’s waking success, the brand has engaged in a partnership with renowned composer Max Richter. Beautyrest is bringing Max Richter’s SLEEP, an eight-hour lullaby that explores the restorative journey our bodies experience at night, to North America. The immersive, overnight concert experience developed in tandem with a neuroscientist premiered in the U.S. in Austin, TX in March, and now makes its way to New York City, May 4th and 5th. Attendees in both cities experience this one of-a-kind concert on Beautyrest mattresses, not concert seats, embarking on this unique musical journey from the comfort of a superb mattress.

“The opportunity to partner with Max Richter is a perfect fit for the Beautyrest brand,” said Kornblum. “We both recognize that sleep is an active state where restorative forces are at work overnight preparing us to be our best selves the next day, and what better way to communicate our unrivaled mattress technology than by allowing people to experience it first-hand…for eight hours.”

In addition to the break-through Be More Awake campaign and Max Richter SLEEP partnership, Beautyrest will continue to elevate the sleep conversation through its continued partnership with Dr. Rebecca Robbins, a sleep researcher at NYU, whose career is centered around generating awareness about the importance of sleep and its impact on the next day. “My personal career mission is to promote awareness about the link between our sleep and waking success – in all aspects of life,” said Dr. Robbins. “Studies show that optimal sleep has a plethora of benefits, including increased productivity and resilience during the day, an ability to retain more information and much more, which is why the story Beautyrest is telling about being more awake is so important.”

Beautyrest is also committed to supporting charitable organizations, because the brand believes quality sleep should be accessible to everyone. Along with partner Universal Music Group, Beautyrest will be donating upwards of 300 mattresses after all three shows to people in need.

Beautyrest Presents: Max Richter’s Sleep Set To Make Its North American Debut At SXSW

The entire album will be made available for the first time to digital streaming partners on March 16, “World Sleep Day”

“Many of these pieces conjure dreamy states, where ideas seem fluid and flexible and the world around you seems somehow softer.”

-Pitchfork

“The music is at times so soft and trance-inducing that you can’t help but slip into a relaxed state.””

-Wall Street Journal

March 9, 2018 (New York, NY) – Composer Max Richter will give the North American debut concert of SLEEP made possible by premiere sponsor Beautyrest® and secondary sponsor Philips on March 12 at SXSW in Austin, TX. Beautyrest mattresses will replace traditional concert seating so attendees can immerse themselves into the eight-hour overnight SLEEP experience. Doors open at 11pm on March 12 at Bass Hall and the concert ends at 8:30AM on March 13. Admission is open to SXSW Platinum and Music badges only.

The landmark work SLEEP was released on Deutsche Grammophon in 2015 to great critical acclaim. The eight-hour long piece is intended to send the listener to sleep; “the music is at times so soft and trance-inducing that you can’t help but slip into a relaxed state,” commented the Wall Street Journal. Scored for piano, strings, electronics and vocals, it’s Richter’s “personal lullaby for a frenetic world,” he explains, and “a manifesto for a slower pace of existence.”

After being performed in Berlin, London, Sydney, Madrid, Zürich, Paris and Amsterdam, SLEEP will finally receive its North American concert premiere at SXSW. Universal Music Group and Brands (UMGB), the brand activation unit of Universal Music Group, brought together top-tier brands to elevate this traditional concert experience.

“One of the most pervasive misconceptions of sleep is that it’s simply our bodies ‘turning off,’” said Warren Kornblum, interim Chief Marketing Officer, Serta Simmons Bedding. “Together with Max Richter, Beautyrest is celebrating sleep as an active state, when we restore and repair our bodies overnight in order to reach our full potential tomorrow. At Beautyrest we are dedicated to continued innovation and have been researching sleep and developing unparalleled mattress technology for close to 150 years. And we know that only when we achieve optimal sleep can we be our best awake selves.”

Following the event, Universal Music Group and Beautyrest will donate all mattresses to local Austin-based charities SAFE and Austin Disaster Relief Network.

Additional experiential enhancements will come courtesy of Philips, a global leader in health technology with nearly 40 years of deep clinical expertise in sleep. “We’re particularly interested in what Max has achieved with SLEEP because it aligns with our latest sleep innovations,” says Dr. David White, Chief Scientific Officer at Philips. “Sound and tone interventions during the deepest stage of sleep (called slow-wave sleep) have been shown to enhance slow wave activity, leading to better quality sleep and improved daytime alertness. We’re making strides in this area of research to continue the advancement of our sleep solutions.”

Max Richter stands as one of the most influential figures on the contemporary music scene, producing ground-breaking work as a recording artist, composer, pianist, and collaborator. He is best known for his genre-defining solo albums including The Blue Notebooks, Memoryhouse, Songs From Before, Infra, Three Worlds: Music from Woolf Works and the eight-hour epic SLEEP. His 2012 record Recomposed By Max Richter: Vivaldi, The Four Seasons topped the Classical charts in 22 countries.

Richter has written widely for ballet, opera, and film, his recent projects including Three Worlds: Music from Woolf Works for The Royal Ballet, Hostiles, directed by Scott Cooper, Miss Sloane, directed by John Madden, Black Mirrors ‘Nosedive’ directed by Joe Wright and Taboo for Tom Hardy, which earned him an Emmy nomination. His music is also featured in Damon Lindelof’s cult HBO series The Leftovers, Martin Scorsese’s Shutter Island, Ari Folman’s Waltz With Bashir and as the opening and end theme in Denis Villeneuve’s Oscar-winning film Arrival.

In celebration of “World Sleep Day” on March 16th, SLEEP will be made available for the first time to digital streaming partners. SLEEP is released by the legendary classical label Deutsche Grammophon, which is distributed by Verve Label Group in the United States. The Verve Label Group (VLG), a division of Universal Music Group based in New York City, is home to many of the most acclaimed artists in Jazz and Classical music, while also strongly focused on championing emerging talent across all genres.

Beautyrest® Launches New Beautyrest Platinum™ And Beautyrest Complete™ Lines

 

ADDS ADDITIONAL MODELS TO EXISTING COLLECTIONS AT LAS VEGAS MARKET

Leading mattress brand offers dealers a preview of its 2018 advertising campaign 

(ATLANTA – Jan. 25, 2018) – The Beautyrest® brand, one of the industry’s leading mattress brands, is excited to introduce two new lines – the Beautyrest Platinum™ and Beautyrest Complete™ collections – at this month’s Las Vegas Market, along with key additions to its Beautyrest Black® and Beautyrest Silver™ offerings. Beautyrest will also provide dealers with a look at the brand’s new “Be More Awake” marketing campaign, which will launch to consumer audiences later this year. Together, the new introductions and new marketing campaign position the brand for success in advance of the 2018 selling season.

“This year is an exciting one for Beautyrest with respect to both our new products and our marketing initiatives,” said Beautyrest Executive Vice President of Marketing Jim Gallman. “We’re introducing 24 new mattress models in Las Vegas, with the majority of those in our Beautyrest Platinum line, and expanding our accessories program with the exciting Beautyrest Complete collection. With innovative products and our new breakthrough marketing campaign, we will energize dealers about our plans for 2018, illustrating how we will stand out to consumers in a very competitive marketplace.”

NEW BEAUTYREST PLATINUM LINE

Featuring a contemporary aesthetic with simple yet sophisticated patterns, the new Beautyrest Platinum line comprises 16 innerspring and hybrid models ranging in price from $1,299 to $2,999 that focus on regulating the nuances of temperature and support to offer smarter, restorative rest.

The 11 Beautyrest Platinum innerspring models and five hybrid models incorporate temperature-management technologies, such as the new InfiniCool™ Surface and InfiniCool HD Surface, which are enhanced with cooling materials to help move heat away from the body. Select innerspring models include BackCare® 3X, a support layer engineered with over 2,000 pressure-relief microcoils, while all hybrid models offer the new PressureSense™ Hybrid Support System, which features alternating Pocketed Coil® springs and Pocketed Memory Foam™ in the center third of the bed that conform to the body for the right balance of pressure relief and support.

Furthermore, the brand will include a complimentary Beautyrest Sleeptracker® monitor with all Beautyrest Platinum mattresses in 2018, adding extra value to each purchase while giving consumers the unique smart bed benefits of monitoring and improving their sleep with any Beautyrest Platinum bed.

NEW BEAUTYREST COMPLETE LINE

Designed to work with Beautyrest mattresses as a comprehensive system, the Beautyrest Complete collection features pillows, mattress covers and pillow covers that help customers transform their sleep from mere rest to renewal. The seven pillows in the collection include memory-foam and non-memory-foam options, as well as an array of comfort levels and price points that will fit any customer’s sleep needs. While a set of machine-washable fiber pillows priced at $35 serves as a promotional offering, the collection’s pillow portfolio features an $89 opening price point and provides consumers with a choice of memory foam or moisture-wicking fiber technologies – both of which provide temperature-management benefits. Luxury options include two Beautyrest Black-branded pillows priced at $149 – one composed of memory foam with an AllerPur™ Technology cover to keep the sleep environment clean and fresh, while the other is 100 percent goose down with a 400-thread-count Supima® cotton cover.

Featuring a cutting-edge design that is unlike anything in the marketplace, Beautyrest Black AirCool™ mattress and pillow covers wick away moisture, enhance comfort, relieve pressure and increase breathability. Thanks to their unique 3-D construction, the covers allow a sleeper to experience the true feel of a mattress or pillow and eliminate any concerns about diminished comfort, which can be an issue in other cover products. With a pillow cover price point of $69 and a mattress cover price point of $299, consumers can choose to purchase either product in one of two technologies – the InfiniCool Technology option is designed to move heat away from the body, while the AllerPur Technology option is infused with natural humidity-absorbing microcapsules that can reduce allergens found in the sleep environment.

BEAUTYREST BLACK AND BEAUTYREST SILVER ADDITIONS

Four new Beautyrest Black Special Edition models will be added to the current Beautyrest Black collection in 2018. Offering a choice of feels at $3,299 and $3,699, the new models pair Advanced Pocketed Coil™ Technology with a layer of 2,200 contouring nanocoils for refined support and spinal alignment. Each Special Edition bed also includes a new HD Performance Knit fabric cover that is designed to wick moisture away from the sleep surface. Beginning in 2018, Beautyrest will include a complimentary Beautyrest Sleeptracker® monitor with the purchase of any Beautyrest Black mattress, enabling customers to transform their Beautyrest Black bed into a smart bed.

This January also marks the premiere of three new Beautyrest Silver models, which are designed to emphasize key price points and allow dealers to promote them more deeply. The introductions include two euro top models that offer a choice of feels at $799, along with a pillow top option that when paired with the existing Beautyrest Silver portfolio provides a triple choice at the $999 price point.

THE “BE MORE AWAKE” ADVERTISING CAMPAIGN

Las Vegas Market attendees will get a preview of Beautyrest’s upcoming 2018 marketing campaign, which conveys how the brand’s unparalleled science and technology helps consumers explore the boundaries of sleep. Building on the theme “Be More Awake,” the campaign pairs visceral elements with live action and bold copy to reframe the conversation around sleep. Rather than focusing on the need for better sleep, the campaign demonstrates what it means to be truly awake, with Beautyrest mattresses providing the energy and clarity you need to unlock your full personal potential during the day.

“Historically, the mattress industry has focused its marketing efforts on how consumers can obtain the best sleep. In 2018, our campaign is a departure from this traditional message,” said Gallman. “The ‘Be More Awake’ campaign shifts the conversation from telling consumers how to sleep to sharing why they need it.”

BEAUTYREST BLACK DIAMOND DEALER PROGRAM

In addition, the Beautyrest brand is honoring select dealers at its Market showroom as part of the new Beautyrest Black Diamond Dealer program. The initiative recognizes top-performing Beautyrest Black dealers, who have demonstrated excellence by achieving specific thresholds in sales and selection. Dealers who attain Diamond Dealer status will receive several benefits, including early access to the new Beautyrest Black Special Edition, enhanced marketing assets and priority on the Beautyrest Black dealer locator.

“We developed the Beautyrest Black Diamond Dealer program to acknowledge the role key dealers play in the success of our Beautyrest Black line,” said Beautyrest Vice President of Channel Marketing Andrew Long. “While the program rewards those dealers that have shown their dedication to the Beautyrest Black line, it also encourages others to increase their engagement with the brand, and we look forward to growing our Diamond Dealer roster in the future.”

2017 SLEEPSELLS SUCCESS

This Market, the Beautyrest brand is also sharing the continued success of the SleepSells program, an online destination featuring education and training elements for retail sales associates (RSAs). Over the past year, the number of total registered RSAs grew by 21 percent. A comparison of 2016 and 2017 figures revealed that last year, total SleepSells sessions grew by 11 percent, page views grew by 21 percent, and the average user spent more time on the site than in 2016.

“Our goal for SleepSells is to arm RSAs with the information they need to be successful, and while we certainly post Beautyrest-related news, much of the content centers on sales tips, consumer insights and general industry knowledge – everything an RSA needs to confidently sell to customers,” said Beautyrest Vice President of Marketing Communications Michelle Montgomery.
