Marbles: The Brain Store Continues East Coast Expansion With New Locations In Maryland, New Jersey

Sept. 23, 2011 - PRLog -- Specialty Retailer Taps Into Growing Market For Brain Fitness Products

BETHESDA, MD and EDISON, NJ – September 23, 2011 – Just in time for the holiday shopping season, Marbles: The Brain Store, a specialty retailer with a smart collection of games, puzzles, books and software designed to stimulate and strengthen the brain, will open two additional East Coast locations this weekend at Montgomery Mall in Bethesda, MD and Menlo Park Mall in Edison, NJ.

Marbles: The Brain Store works with experts in the field of brain health and wellness for product selection and divides its stores into sections focused on specific areas of the brain: Coordination, Critical Thinking, Memory, Visual Perception and Word Skills.

“Our product offering is based on the revolutionary principal of neuroplasticity, or how you can generate new brain cells and form new connections by stimulating the brain in different ways,” said Gaskins.  “We believe that game play and other types of cognitive stimulation can impact how your brain works and may even be able to ward off cognitive decline.”

Marbles’ diverse customer base includes parents, educators, students, caregivers and therapists.  Sales associates, known as BrainCoaches, encourage shoppers to test products and “play their way to a healthier brain” at demo stations placed throughout each store.  

“Our team is made up of smart, outgoing people who are passionate about learning new things and creating a fun and interactive environment where any customer can find a product designed to help their brain reach its full potential,” said Gaskins.  “We’re really focused on customer service.  We want people to have fun while they stimulate and boost their brainpower.”

Marbles: The Brain Store also maintains a robust shopping destination online (www.marblesthebrainstore.com) with its product assortment divided into sections similar to its retail locations.  Shoppers can search by product name, age, price range and even gift recipient category.  Video demos featuring Marbles’ BrainCoaches help customers learn more about each item.  The Marbles’ Brain Blog, also hosted on the site, offers fresh content focused on the latest in brain health and wellness.
