EP 4 | 10 Elements to Define your Interior Design Services

Having clearly defined design services is paramount to running an efficient and organized business.

It not only helps you get clear on the details such as the deliverables, the investment, and the timeline, but it also helps you to talk about your services to your clients with clarity and confidence. 

And let’s be honest, confidence is what we’re after here right? 

You can also use the details to help you put together those very important client deliverables such as your Services & Investment Guide or your welcome package. 

In this episode we answer questions like…

1. Have you ever struggled to explain the differences in your interior design services to potential new clients? 
2. Do you have a clear picture of the benefits and results of each service and what type of client might be the best fit? 
3. Do you sometimes wonder if you have enough offerings? Or - more likely - offer too many services? 
4. Does everyone on your team know and understand the differences in your services?
