Published on: 5th February, 2024

Calling all aspiring designers! In this week's episode, we talk about three things that will transform your interior design business.

1) Move it Online and Streamline

Digitize your routine activities with online tools. I'll share two easy ones to get you started.

2) Automate

Find ways to automate daily tasks like booking appointments.

3) Elevate your process

Upgrade all of your client-facing moments such as proposals and information packets with these tools.

Watch your productivity and profit soar in 2024 by investing the time in upgrading and streamlining your client experience process and procurement. Digital tools (many of them free!) not only project a professional appearance to your clients, but they save you time and increase your profitability so you can book clients on repeat and make your design business dream a reality.
