    #40 Drive more traffic to your interior design website with Barb Davids

    Have you poured time and money into a stunning new website, but the traffic just isn’t showing up? You’re definitely not alone. Many interior designers launch beautiful sites and expect the inquiries to roll in, but then…crickets. Today, I’m chatting with an SEO strategist Barb Davids, who’s here to demystify SEO and make it work for you. She’s sharing super straightforward, game-changing strategies to help you get more traffic, attract the clients you want, and make your website do more than just look nice. If you’ve ever wondered what SEO really means for your business, or how it can help you land more clients, this episode is for you. What you’ll learn in this episode: The crucial elements of SEO every interior designer should know Why SEO is about more than just “keywords” How to use blogging and content strategy to boost website visibility The power of page titles and meta descriptions in driving clicks When to consider adding paid traffic to your SEO efforts Why tracking metrics matters—and how to do it Key highlights: SEO is about making it easy for search engines to find and understand your content, helping connect you with potential clients through optimized words and structure. Posting even once a month can keep your site fresh and relevant to search engines, increasing the chances of attracting clients searching for solutions you offer. Reuse blog content across social media and other platforms to extend its reach without the pressure of constant new content creation. Page titles and meta descriptions act as “window displays” in search results, encouraging clicks with compelling summaries and calls to action. Knowing which leads convert into actual clients is essential for refining your SEO strategy and maximizing results. While referrals are valuable, avoid over-relying on them by using SEO and organic traffic for a steady stream of leads. Memorable quotes: "SEO is like peanut butter and jelly in my head because if you don’t have the right words on the page, Google is not going to find your website." "You're relying on other people to do your marketing for you [with referrals]." "If somebody saw your window display, it was pretty enough, would they want to click into your website to see what you have to offer?" "It's about making it easy for your client to find you."

    #38 Video, SEO, and outsourcing marketing like a PRO with Kirsten Graham

    What if the secret to scaling your interior design business is not just creating video content but outsourcing the work? And not just outsourcing to anyone but to a virtual assistant that specializes in marketing? I didn’t even realize there was such a thing as a Marketing Virtual Assistant (VA) until I chatted with today’s guest.  Today’s episode is a masterclass in getting the help you need without sacrificing quality.  Kirsten Graham, co-owner of Six-Figure Business Coaching, shares her process for training marketing virtual assistants and creating compelling, SEO-friendly video content that attracts ideal clients. What you’ll learn in this episode: How to create compelling video content specifically for interior design clients Key elements to consider when hiring a marketing virtual assistant for video, social media, and other marketing tasks The importance of documented SOPs (standard operating procedures) for a smoother outsourcing experience Tips on building a content strategy that resonates with clients and repels those who aren't a good fit Why it’s okay to delegate tasks without knowing every technical detail yourself Memorable quotes from Kirsten: "Let your desire to serve others and help clients overcome your fear and judgment of yourself—just show up." "If you do something more than three times and it has more than three steps, document it." "Your marketing should attract the ideal client and almost repel the rest." Key highlights: Video as an SEO tool: Kirsten explains how video content, especially on platforms like YouTube, can boost local SEO for interior designers, helping them reach clients in their area. Breaking down tasks for VAs: When hiring a virtual assistant, look for skills that match the specific job—don’t expect them to do everything from bookkeeping to video editing. SOPs streamline outsourcing: Documenting workflows through SOPs can help onboard new team members more efficiently, allowing interior designers to focus on client-facing work. Client-specific content strategies: Kirsten shares the importance of targeting content toward your ideal client, so they connect with your messaging and style, avoiding mismatches.

    #35 How to use storytelling to build a memorable brand with Sara Lohse

    Storytelling isn’t just a marketing buzzword—it’s a proven way to build authentic connections that keep your clients engaged and coming back for more. If you want to get better at marketing, get better at storytelling. In today’s episode of Marketing for Designers, I’ve got a special guest Sara Lohse, founder of Favorite Daughter Media, to discuss how personal stories can be your most powerful tool in building a memorable, compelling brand. Sara chats with me about why stories resonate so powerfully with people, how to find the right ones to tell, and why storytelling isn’t just for writers or creatives—it’s for every designer who wants to form a deeper connection with their clients.  Tune to this episode and you’ll get to hear Sara’s personal story that she has shared with her audience many times to humanize her brand and build deeper business connections. If you're ready to elevate your marketing strategy with stories that truly resonate, this episode is a must-listen. Things you’ll learn in this episode: Why storytelling is essential in marketing: Sara explains the neuroscience behind why our brains crave stories and why they’re so effective in building client relationships. How to choose the right stories: Tips on how to pick stories from your personal and professional life that align with your business goals. The 4 key elements of a compelling story: Sara shares her storytelling framework—relatability, details, emotions, and the unexpected. How to be vulnerable without oversharing: Understanding why putting yourself in the story helps build stronger client relationships. Practical tips for incorporating stories in your social media and website copy: How to make your stories engaging, emotional, and memorable. Memorable quotes: “People want stories. Our brains are wired for storytelling. It was the way that people communicated even before we had language.” “Connections between humans come from shared experiences. So if you're able to tell a story, and someone that's listening has gone through a similar experience, they're going to feel that emotional connection to you.” “Your stories don’t have to be massive.

    #34 Three things to do before a website rebrand

    If you’ve been thinking about a website rebrand—whether you're hiring a professional or attempting to DIY—it’s not just about refreshing your design or adding new copy. Before the visuals or the words, there are three essential things you must get clear on to make your rebrand successful.  In this episode of Marketing for Designers, I’m talking about the foundational steps you need to take before you start working with a website designer or tackling that rebrand on your own. Here’s the must-do prep work that ensures your new site not only looks amazing but resonates with your dream clients and sets you apart. Trust me, skipping these steps could lead to wasted time, money, and an uninspiring website. What you’ll learn in this episode: How to identify your ideal audience before starting the rebrand. Why defining your Unique Value Proposition (UVP) is essential for standing out. The difference between features and benefits—and why benefits resonate more. How to make your messaging emotionally engaging to attract dream clients. How to align your UVP and benefits with both your website copy and design. How to avoid wasting time and money by rebranding without clear messaging. Why refining these elements upfront ensures a successful rebrand and beyond. Memorable quotes: "Your website is often the first touchpoint a potential client has with your brand. It’s not just about looking beautiful; it’s about being crystal clear on who you're talking to, why they should choose you, and what they stand to gain by working with you." "A unique value proposition isn’t just a catchy tagline—it's the thing that sets you apart from every other interior designer out there. It’s what makes you the right choice for your ideal clients." "You need to show your prospects the benefits they’ll experience from working with you—whether it's peace of mind, a beautifully functional space, or more time to enjoy their lives."
