- Management
“Learn from everything, every experience is an opportunity to learn.”
Fiona Plett @herselfcontracting loves working close with her clients to heal their homes. She wants to rid them of the “irritants” that plague their space.
Upcycling and re-purposing materials rank high in what to use for projects, but you know the catch, it costs more than buying that factory built hollow core door, 100%.
So how to do you get the client on board with the idea?
Physical time: Waste time- your choice
On communication: anticipating the conversation and scripting in a sense.
Lessons:
Bookeeping
Time off
Buy the stuff you need
The goal: Making “one of’s”
The direction? Getting more creative with what she knows which may incorporate the new timber framing.
Advice: don’t volunteer your time, get paid for your time.
