Facilitated by Houzz Community Team members Michael Stein and Larchmont’s Katherine Nannizzi, each session revealed to architects, interior designers and contractors the hows on harnessing Houzz.com and its integrated technologies to improve their business efficiency, reach new prospective clients and streamline communications.

"It was amazing to see so many Westchester and Fairfield county home professionals who were being proactive in trying to learn how to enhance and expand their business through learning more about Houzz,” said Michael Stein. “Our attendance was great, and there were so many questions and comments that showed me that Houzz really has created the best space for home professionals to get their names and their work out there to the thousands of homeowners in their area and the millions of users we have around the country."

With over 17 million mobile app installs and over 23 million users, Houzz.com is the website preferred by homeowners searching out ideas for their next renovation and remodeling project.
