FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Gardner’s Mattress & More Elevates Industry Standard: Entire Sales
Team Earns Certified Sleep Science Coach Credential
Lancaster, PA — In an industry filled with self-proclaimed “sleep experts,”
Gardner’s Mattress & More has taken a decisive step to separate fact from fiction.
Today, the company proudly announces that 100% of its sales team has officially earned the
Certified Sleep Science Coach designation through the Spencer Institute’s comprehensive
program—setting a new benchmark for credibility, expertise, and customer care in the sleep
Industry.
This was not a casual certification. It was a deeper commitment and proactive choice to serve
their customers at the highest level possible.
Each team member voluntarily completed:
30+ hours of advanced sleep science study
A rigorous 3-hour proctored certification exam
All completed on their own personal time
This level of commitment underscores a simple belief:
Helping people sleep better is not a sales tactic. It’s a responsibility.
Raising the Bar in a Misleading Market
While many retailers rely on titles like “sleep expert,” “sleep consultant,” or even “sleep doctor,”
the reality is stark:
Most of those titles are unregulated and unsupported by real education.
Traditional retail training focuses on:
Mattress specifications
Foam densities
Manufacturer talking points from only the brands a retailer partners with, giving their
advice to you as a biased influence.
What’s missing?
Real understanding of how sleep impacts human health, longevity, and quality of life.
Gardner’s Mattress & More chooses a different path.
From Product Sales to Life-Changing Outcomes
Through this certification, the team is now formally trained in:
The science of sleep and circadian rhythms
Identification of common sleep disorders
Proven methods to assess individual sleep challenges
Development of custom sleep improvement strategies
Coaching techniques that improve both sleep quality and quantity
This transforms the customer experience from:
“Which mattress do you want?”
to
“Let’s solve why you’re not sleeping—and fix it.”
A Commitment That Goes Beyond the Sale
“Anyone can sell a mattress. Very few are trained to improve a human life,” said Jeff
Giagnocavo, co-owner.
“Our team didn’t do this for a badge. They did it because our customers deserve real answers,
real guidance, and real results when it comes to their sleep.”
Better sleep is directly tied to:
Improved physical health
Stronger mental clarity
Increased longevity
This certification positions Gardner’s Mattress & More not just as a retailer, but as a trusted
authority in sleep performance and wellness.
What This Means for Customers
When customers walk into Gardner’s Mattress & More, they’re no longer getting a salesperson.
They’re working with a Certified Sleep Science Coach trained to:
Diagnose sleep challenges
Provide personalized solutions
Guide long-term improvement—not just a one-time purchase
