    EP 403 | Love of Home with Kate Marker

    Sure, as interior design professionals we make homes look beautiful. However, to be truly successful and create clients for life, we have to dig deeper. Interior designer Kate Marker says she likes to tap into the feeling or mood her clients are hoping to live with, in order to satisfy their deepest needs. She does that by asking strategic questions and actively listening, so she can build meaningful relationships that last and last. In this episode we learn: - it takes time to know your clients and then tailor your designs to reflect their unique personalities - keeping the lines of communication open is critical, so build in regular updates and check-ins - listen actively to your clients' concerns and desires and let them know you hear them - foster collaboration but don’t be afraid to be the expert and make strong recommendations - we build trust through transparency Success is not an accident.

    EP 402 | Start with the Art with Natalie Papier

    Art provides a home with soul, infusing it with the client’s personality. Yet too many design professionals don’t make art selections on behalf of their clients. It’s not nearly as complicated to choose art as you might think. In this episode, we’ll talk about ways to bring more artwork into the lives of your clients. In this episode we learn: - art can be a piece you inherited, a painting you found at an antique store, a fun pottery collection, a textile from a trip (that could be a quilt, tapestry, or rug), kids’ art, etc. - galleries can be intimidating, but flea markets, vintage shops, art fairs, and online art - resources can have amazing, meaningful pieces - to create a color palette for a home, start with the art - don’t worry about “matching” the artwork, opt for finding pieces that set the right mood Success is not an accident.
