Diana Simmons of Simply Cabinetry Featured on Franchise Woman Podcast: Simplifying the Cabinetry Franchise Model
In a recent episode of the The Franchise Woman Podcast, Diana Simmons shared the story behind building Simply Cabinetry from a garage startup into a growing franchise brand focused on simplifying the cabinetry experience.
Founded in 2007 and officially launched in 2010, Simply Cabinetry was built around one core idea: make the cabinetry process easier for homeowners, contractors, builders, and designers.
Simplifying a Complex Process
Cabinetry is one of the biggest investments in a home renovation, and the process can quickly become overwhelming. Diana explained that Simply Cabinetry was designed to help customers make confident decisions through streamlined showroom experiences, education, and simplified planning.
Today, the company provides factory-direct cabinetry while focusing on long-term value, functionality, and customer guidance.
What Makes Simply Cabinetry Different?
The Simply Cabinetry approach focuses on making cabinetry decisions more approachable and less stressful by:
Simplifying the selection process
Educating customers instead of pressuring them
Creating efficient showroom experiences
Helping clients make long-term design decisions
Supporting franchisees with systems and tools for growth
What Drives the Simply Cabinetry Approach?
Throughout the conversation, Diana shared the values that continue to shape the company’s growth and customer experience.
A commitment to continual learning and problem-solving
Educating customers so they can make confident decisions
Simplifying a process that often feels overwhelming
Supporting franchisees and team members through growth and leadership

Looking Ahead
Diana also shared the company’s larger vision through “Simply Brands,” with future plans to bring the same simplified approach into additional areas of home improvement.
At its core, the mission remains the same: simplify complex decisions, help people grow, and create a better experience for customers and franchise partners alike.
