A virtual showroom is in the works, allowing the sales team to create a more personalized customer experience.
The company said it will also promote new customer outreach tools in both traditional and new media methods.
“Borsheims has been in business for nearly 150 years due to its leaders’ ability to adapt to the environment around them,” said Warren Buffett, chairman of parent company Berkshire Hathaway, in a press release.
“The evolving business focus and Adrienne’s promotion to this new role are evidence of that.”
