I used to work for mattress firm and honestly it's the most family-like large company I've ever been a part of. I was a driver so I'd go to every store and see everybody, but there were company get togethers and a lot of people from different stores hung out outside of work. Not to mention most salesmen work at multiple stores so everyone gets to know each other over time.
Also want to mention, I delivered a shitload of way overpriced beds. I can't say for certain there's not laundering involved, but they're making bank anyway. I mean people spend $10-15k on one bed, then another $5k for their kid's bed. They're making car lot money without all the red tape involved.
Different locations of the same company communication about a random dude coming in asking about something they’ve heard a million times is proof of nothing lol.
That will happen. An IM portal helped communicate and collaborate between stores, but mainly for business reasons. We’d spot a secret shopper, let the other stores know. We had a big Karen work hard to get a discount, but walked, we’d inform nearby stores what to expect.
I worked next to a Mattress Firm. Before I even knew about this, we used to all joke because we literally, not once saw a single customer go in there. We waited for years for it to go out of business but never did. The owner would come and go and I asked him one time if the business was struggling and he told me that he makes about $5 million per year.
@YaksenPushMongo What makes you say that? I feel like this is a completely reasonable story with plain average detail. Guy works next to store. Store never has customers. Owner says he has a lot of customers. End of story, what's hard to believe here?
@@nadiazainol1429 this was over 20 years ago when I worked at a Blockbuster Video store next door to the mattress firm. Way before online shopping. And our Blockbuster video store was all glass, so we could see outside. And like I said… I literally, not a single time, ever saw a customer go inside. It became a joke, so we would constantly watch. The owner hired someone to just man the store and the owner would come by a few times per week. He was the only person who ever came by.
@@nadiazainol1429 Mattresses are one of the few things you don't really order online. There's a reason they have a storefront with them all on display, so people can try them out before buying.
All major stores have city based group chats to warn each other at least the gas stations tip if you do something terrible to get banned from a circle k you get banned from all the ones in the city.

I’ve worked for mattress firm for 7 years and when I started I had never heard of it. I can honestly say I will never judge anyone based on where they work, a lot of you people focus too much on title and “prestige” of certain companies. I can honestly say, I manage a team of 5 employees, each of which bring in over $80k a year for their families, and myself I do about $1.5M in sales per year bringing me about $190k/yr. But when I say I work for mattress firm people laugh or say “do you ever get busy” . I just laugh on the inside. Don’t judge because we work for mattress firm, I make more than your daddy and his daddy’s daddy.
Nick, clearly you never worked there or you don’t know what money laundering means. I spent a decade working there in 3 different markets and rose to DSM. I left a long time ago, and very happy when I did, but can wholeheartedly tell you that you are wrong.
@@z.t.a.r.s Laundering money means sending money earned illegally through a “washing” process that makes the money come out clean. Example. A drug dealer makes money selling drugs. A certain amount of money would set off a red flag. So, how do you take money earned illegally into money made legally. You own a laundromat (just an example). You then have a customer spend that illegal money at your business legally. Now that money is cleaned and on paper looks legal. Mattress Firm has low overhead and high markups. Plus their M&A strategy was hyper aggressive minimizing competition. No laundering, just aggressive capitalism.
@@corner7bass02 I can wholeheartedly say I'm not cause I used to mange a mattress store and random money would appear all the time without customers around for days and I was told "don't worry about it" by the owners
Former mattress firm employee here. They went on a huge buying spree and bought out a lot of competitors who were literally across the street or even a half mile away. Rather than closing those stores they just rebranded them under the mattress Firm name. It cost the company about $10,000 a month to keep each store open outside of the major cities and they generate 50k to $100,000 or more per month. That covers all expenses and salaries and that's a store a decent profit.
Crazy that it only takes 4 mattresses a day to make 30k a month. They don't sell the extra stores just to make sure a competitor moves in? Why do they bother keeping ones literally across the street from each other running? They could just keep it locked up and unstaffed, use it for inventory storage.
@@evanislost some of them are in long-term leases that are below market value. Literally if they close down the store and someone else moved in they would pay two to three times more. I literally sold a $7,000 mattress yesterday with a $2,000 adjustable base plus $600 in accessories. Edit: I currently sell mattresses for a different company.
This is correct. They also use the stores essentially as a warehouse so they can send you home with or deliver the mattress you selected from the show floor that day.
@@mas0n25 I could tell that you've never been to a store. Mattresses start off at about $150 and they go up from there. Average sales probably going to be between $1,000 and $2,000. The most expensive mattress most stores have us going to top out about $4,000
We have the same thing here in Germany, it’s called Matratzenconcord. One store opens up everything is on sale but you’ll never see anybody in the store buying stuff. This can’t be coincidence 😂

I worked next to a mattress firm once too. They had 10 big oily greasy dirty fat men walk into their store everyday, which we always joked about. One day I decided to go and investigate and I found out they were doing rituals where fat neckbeards would come in and eat about 20,000 calories daily, then would hop into the "gubenschmackerinator2000" and get sent directly to the moon.

That actually explains why there's a furniture/mattress store right next to our pd that I haven't seen a single customer go in but yet it stays open somehow. Also you look inside the windows and half the rooms look like they've never seen human interaction.
They have so many locations because of a concept in game theory that is kinda difficult to explain without illustrating. But to try to explain, a consumer will always go to the closest store no matter what. That’s why you’ll see 3 different grocery stores right next to each other, or 5 restaurants all next to one another. If you move towards the right side of town, you may get the right side customers but you lose all the left and middle customers. That’s why all restaurants, stores, and pretty much everything in one specific category is in one general place. In the case for the mattress store. Their profit margins are so damn high that they place a store on every corner to capitalize on being the closest store to whatever consumer needs a mattress. Couple that with the fact their employees strictly work off commission and you know have a certified hustle money making scheme
I guess and the profit margins must help. But subway tried this aka when they are franchised out and stores being so close to one another inevitably lead to the downfall of the brand for many owners. But still mattress firm being a minute away from each other in the same town when there is no other competition makes no sense. Like where else the customers gonna go...

The profit on a mattress is insane and people will pay for high quality sleep. It's basically selling a haystack wrapped in a sack for thousands of dollars a piece.
Think about it this way… if they keep ALL of their mattresses in one store, and they get bed bugs, there goes every single mattress in their stock. So they have to have a multitude of stores or storage locations to ensure they can still have mattresses available to sell because some people are disgusting, and they don’t care if they’re going to spread bed bugs. Also consider all of the hotels and motels that buy hundreds upon hundreds of mattresses every year
I have asked friends why we have so many mattress stores. There cannot be that many people buying mattresses everyday. I don't know how they could stay in business only selling 2-3 mattresses a day. We literally have about 4 different companies with multiple locations each in my city alone.
say that the avg mattresses is 1k that's 3k a day 84k a month or about 1 mil a year even if it was half the price it would be 500k a year rent is around 80 to 100k a year employees cost will be around 100 to 150k so all in your looking at 250k of expenses before unit cost. It's well known that mattresses are a high margin product. It's not that hard to make money on each location. For example most restaurant bring in less than 1 mill a year. For example the avg taco bell bring in only 1.6 mil a year with a profit margin of 10% to 15%
Wow, I've never heard of this before or the company. Also, I never knew that you needed a new mattress every eight years. Also, I'm shocked that the employees are getting smarter now, ahlie.
It actually makes a lot of sense how mattress stores are profitable if they're making 2-4 sales a day. Mattresses are expensive. Even the cheapest ones are like 600 dollars and the most expensive can be up to 6000, with the average probable being like 1200. Assuming average retail markup of 50% that's anywhere from $200 to $2000 in profit with each sale, with the only other costs a store needing to worry about is renting the space and paying like 2-3 employees at most, which you can make even cheaper by paying on commission, and suddenly it starts making sense how mattress stores can stay in business.
As someone who knows alot about this, 1 mattress sold can keep the store open for a whole month, every other mattress sold after is profit. Their lease is cheap, you won’t ever see them in expensive real estate areas. Conspiracy solved
the entire reason people think it's a money laundering scheme is because there's so many, and people don't need mattresses that often. you buy a building to clean your money, you can sell that building later for clean money, money laundering

A new mattress that is not on showcase is usually packed in plastic so bugs are not able to get in
Please leave these minimum wage employees alone. They don’t deserve to be robots for your clout.
I promise you they're not minimum wage. Furniture salesmen make a lot of money on commission.
Yup I made $85-110k at ashley furniture and now at mattress firm after ashley fell off in San Antonio I still make at least $80k year lmao.😂😂😂😂
Laundromats are the true money launderer’s
I have asked friends why we have so many mattress stores. There cannot be that many people buying mattresses everyday. I don't know how they could stay in business only selling 2-3 mattresses a day. We literally have about 4 different companies with multiple locations each in my city alone.
say that the avg mattresses is 1k that's 3k a day 84k a month or about 1 mil a year even if it was half the price it would be 500k a year rent is around 80 to 100k a year employees cost will be around 100 to 150k so all in your looking at 250k of expenses before unit cost. It's well known that mattresses are a high margin product. It's not that hard to make money on each location. For example most restaurant bring in less than 1 mill a year. For example the avg taco bell bring in only 1.6 mil a year with a profit margin of 10% to 15%
Ty friend for explaining to this fool. Btw the average mattress sale isn’t $1k it’s $3k so $9k day/X30=$270k month it’s TAHT simple
the last girl was a legend for that 😂

People who record someone after being asked not too should probably be taken down. Please respect people.

“Today we’re gonna find out if it’s a money laundering scheme!
-Hi, is it a money laundering scheme?
Employee: yes it is.
*Roll credits*
Yeah them warning the other stores definitely isn't suspicious.
Wow, I've never heard of this before or the company. Also, I never knew that you needed a new mattress every eight years. Also, I'm shocked that the employees are getting smarter now, ahlie.
It actually makes a lot of sense how mattress stores are profitable if they're making 2-4 sales a day. Mattresses are expensive. Even the cheapest ones are like 600 dollars and the most expensive can be up to 6000, with the average probable being like 1200. Assuming average retail markup of 50% that's anywhere from $200 to $2000 in profit with each sale, with the only other costs a store needing to worry about is renting the space and paying like 2-3 employees at most, which you can make even cheaper by paying on commission, and suddenly it starts making sense how mattress stores can stay in business.
First guy passed the vibe check
They gone above and beyond with the assignment, lmfao
I like the ‘this is an old joke, I’m tired of hearing it, go away’ guy.
That one employee “ bro I just work here idk” 💀
They've got so little customers they spend time chatting with each other about who enters their store...

As someone who knows alot about this, 1 mattress sold can keep the store open for a whole month, every other mattress sold after is profit. Their lease is cheap, you won’t ever see them in expensive real estate areas. Conspiracy solved
“Oh, you gotta go” “but maybe do your bit first”
Tiniest microphone ever, is effing hilarious

Lmaooooooooo "the tiniest microphone ever "
I love how the first guy is so honest.

the entire reason people think it's a money laundering scheme is because there's so many, and people don't need mattresses that often. you buy a building to clean your money, you can sell that building later for clean money, money laundering
