World Market Center in Las Vegas
As we walked the Summer Las Vegas Market last week, the editors of BedTimes and Sleep Savvy persuaded and cajoled some bedding and mattress showroom exhibitors to describe their product introductions and updates–in 30 seconds or less–for a Twitter video! Thanks to all who consented :-)
In no particular order and for easier viewing, we’ve gathered those brief videos here. Roll down the screen and check them out. Below the videos, I’ve embedded most of our other #lvmkt and #lvmktmattress show tweets, as well, because we’ve learned (gasp!) that some of you are not on Twitter.
