Devine Color Founder Gretchen Schauffler Launches Nationwide Paint Color Consulting ServicePORTLAND, Ore., Feb. 12, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Portland color expert and entrepreneurial powerhouse Gretchen Schauffler has today announced the launch of her nationwide color consulting service, Devine Color Consultations. Schauffler is the founder of the successful paint company Devine Color, which has recently struck a deal with Target to sell an exclusive line of paint and wall coverings in all 1790 stores across the United States. Schauffler sees the new consulting service as an opportunity to get in touch with her roots.

I couldn't find the colors I was looking for anywhere, I had to mix paint colors from different companies to achieve the colors I had envisioned for my customers. Eventually I decided to make the paint myself," Schauffler said. The new online consultation service puts a modern twist on the traditional in-home consultation. When a customr books an appointment, they are asked to send through photos or a brief video of their home, and are immediately sent a full collection of Devine Color Discovery Cards. This allows Schauffler and her team to become familiar with the space, while the Discovery Cards offer the customer a unique way to explore color at home. "The whole point of getting photos and sending Discovery Cards ahead of time is to eliminate wasted time during the consultation," Schauffler said. "In a typical one hour in-home appointment, a consultant could spend half that time just getting to know the home. Now I not only know the home, but I already have color suggestions in mind before the consultation even starts." The consultation then takes place via phone, Skype, or FaceTime — whichever the customer prefers. It is a chance to discuss all the options openly, to engage in a conversation that leads to the perfect color selection for any home. To confirm their colors, customers are given a set of beautiful 8" x 11" Deluxe Swatches, made from real paint. But perhaps the best part about Devine Color Consultations is the value. For $249.00, customers not only receive a set of Discovery Cards and Deluxe Swatches with their consultation, but they also get free overnight shipping, 20% off paint and their first two gallons are free! That means that once you find the perfect colors today, you could start painting tomorrow.
