    On Air Strategy Sessions: Ciara King: Setting Yourself Apart and Landing Your First Client

    Today With Ciara King: Welcome to a Well-Designed Business. Starting a design business is exciting, but it isn’t easy—especially when that first “real” client doesn’t come easily.  My guest for today’s on-air strategy session is in the thick of this tough spot and unsure how to move forward.  Today Ciara Robinson, founder of Ville Otis Interiors, joins me for a live coaching session to work through some of the hardest parts of starting a business—positioning yourself, converting leads, and landing that first client. LuAnn Nigara and Ciara King's Ah-Ha Moments “Every one of you wants our homes to feel like us and make us feel good. But there's a little nudge in why you're doing it. And it could be as simple as I used to do it with clothing, but it only lasts for the five hours that you have that outfit on. I wanted it to last your whole day. Whatever it is, there's a way to express that in the website, I'm sure of it.” -LuAnn More About Ciara King I'm Ciara King, proud owner and principal designer at Ville Otis Interiors, a full-service interior design firm nestled in the heart of Northern Georgia. I’m taking a fresh approach to design that sets me apart from the crowd. Rather than chasing the latest trends, my focus is on delving into your distinct personality and preferences to craft a one-of-a-kind space that truly feels like home. I’m not just designing interiors; I’m bringing your authentic self to life in the very walls around you. As someone who wears multiple hats, balancing the roles of a business owner, a wife, and a stepmom to three, I empathize with the desire to return to a relaxing and comfortable home, especially after a demanding day at work, a full day tending to the kids, and everything in between. I believe in doing hard things and achieving the impossible, so allow me to take your vision, elevate it beyond your wildest dreams, and turn it into a reality. When you place your confidence in Ville Otis Interiors, you can expect open and transparent communication, along with a well-defined design process that will make your upcoming project a seamless and stress-free experience!

    Devon and Michael Wegman: Flexing and Adapting as Your Interior Design Business Grows

    Today With Devon and Michael Wegman: Welcome to a Well-Designed Business. As you know, husband and wife duos are near and dear to my heart, and we have had several great examples over the years who have shared their stories of how they divide responsibilities, support each other, and work as a team in their businesses. Today I am joined by another great spouse partnership, Devon and Michael Wegman.  Devon and Michael talk about the importance of goal-setting, how to keep yourself grounded when you grow faster than you expect, and how they work together in their business. LuAnn Nigara, Devon and Michael Wegman's Ah-Ha Moments “It’s almost like the scarier the leap is, the more motivated you are.” -Devon “It’s important to set goals, and if you’re new to the idea, don't obsess too much about what it exactly it is. You just need to have something to measure against.” -Michael More About Devon and Michael Wegman Devon was born and raised in Ridgewood, NJ, where her love of architecture and design first started. As a child, Devon was drawn to everything creative and artistic. When she was seven years old, her parents built a home in Cape Cod, MA, and Devon was exposed to the process of architecture, design and building. From this young age, she knew this was something she wanted to be a part of when she got older. Michael Wegman is a dynamic and accomplished Owner and Principal at DGI Design-Build, an innovative, multidisciplinary design-build business nationally recognized for incredible residential designs, use of cutting edge design and visualization software, and commitment to construction execution. Michael brings a unique blend of tech-savviness, operational acumen, and visionary leadership to the design-build industry, drawing on his multifaceted career in software sales, consulting, and business growth. Today, Devon and Michael live in Lincoln Park, and recently moved the growing team into a fully renovated studio space in Chicago’s West Town neighborhood.

    Power Talk Friday: Sonia Barney: The Journey Post-Power Talk Friday Tour

    Today With Sonia Barney: Hello! Welcome to A Well-Designed Business! Today I sit down with Sonia Barney, a talented interior designer who turned her passion into a thriving business. Sonia shares her unique journey, from navigating the challenges of motherhood to discovering her entrepreneurial spirit. We dive into her experiences at Power Talk Friday in Las Vegas and discuss how embracing her strengths has allowed her to carve out a successful niche in the design industry. More About Sonia Barney I’m Sonia Barney, Owner and Principal Designer at Sonia Barney Design in Idaho Falls, Idaho. With a Bachelor's Degree in Interior Design and 18+ years of experience in design, construction and education, and while raising two autistic boys with my engineer husband, I know firsthand that organization, planning, and strategic creativity are paramount. I opened my own business in 2015 and have spent the last 9 years thoughtfully building my business and team to provide expert design services in the East Idaho region. I am the first to admit that I am a total design nerd who prefers space planning and spreadsheets to pillows and décor. Organization and planning are my love languages thus our clients receive full design books and detailed specifications on all construction projects. No matter the project size, our goal is to provide clients with thoughtful, elevated solutions that contribute to exceptional living.

  4. Ann Cariola: Launching an Interior Design Firm at Age 60—It’s Never Too Late

    Ann Cariola: Launching an Interior Design Firm at Age 60—It’s Never Too Late

    Today With Ann Cariola: Welcome to a Well-Designed Business. I firmly believe that age is just a number, and that you can start a successful business at 20, 80, or anything in between.  But I also know that the idea that it is too late is common. Maybe you wanted to start your own business or you were always interested in design, but you kept putting it off, focusing on other things, building your career or your family—and maybe now it does feel like it’s slipped past you.  My guest today, Ann Cariola, took the leap at age 60 to start her own design business. And she firmly believes that it’s never too late to have the life or the career you want. Today, she’s here to share how she did it—and how you can make the leap no matter what your age is. LuAnn Nigara and Ann Cariola's Ah-Ha Moments “Just because you enjoy it doesn’t mean it’s any less valuable.” -Ann “You’ve got to know what you bring to the table before you can tell someone else what you bring to the table.” -Ann “Vin was the system person, not me. I committed to them basically just to be able to say that I did it—so that even if there was a mistake I could point out, ‘Well, I followed the system.’ But the crazy thing is, the more I followed the system, the less mistakes there were. And then I thought, ‘Oh, okay, this really works.’” -LuAnn More About Ann Cariola In a nutshell, I strive to be the most enthusiastic, approachable, and resourceful interior decorator you will ever meet! I love helping vibrant women reimagine and create beautiful, functional homes that support a full and happy life as their children start to leave the nest. My journey to AGC Home Styled has been a long one. Although I have always loved design, I hold a Master’s Degree from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in Communication Disorders and enjoyed a long career as a Speech Pathologist and Executive Functions Coach. This experience, coupled with my love of design and all things “home,” has given me a unique perspective on interior design, emotional well-being, and the processes that bring it all together.

    Dean Keyworth: Designing Modern Spaces Fit for Rural Living

    Today With Dean Keyworth: Welcome to a Well-Designed Business. My guest today is Dean Keyworth, founder of Armstrong Keyworth, who recently published a book through the Royal Institute of British Architects called New Country: City Style for Rural Living, that teaches you how to create practical designs that work for country homes and also provide functionality for the modern world.  There are so many details in the book that explain how this specific expertise in design impacts rural clients, and why it matters.  Beyond this, Dean shares the big picture concept about the value you bring to your clients and the impact you have on their daily lives. LuAnn Nigara and Dean Keyworth's Ah-Ha Moments “The design has to work practically, but it doesn't have to be that radically different. If you're already contemporary, stay contemporary.” -Dean More About Dean Keyworth After a first career in travel marketing for British Airways and Hilton Hotels, Dean Keyworth re-trained with a diploma in Interior Design and set up his own practice, Armstrong Keyworth Ltd in 1997. As well as his client projects, Dean has written for magazines and newspapers in the United Kingdom and Europe on design matters. Following 3 years on the board, Dean was elected as President of the British Institute of Interior Design (BIID) in 2006. In 2017, he was given the prestigious BIID Merit award for services to the industry. His conversion of an 1821 church into a family home received a highly commended award for the ‘best re-use of a Georgian building’ from the Georgian Group in 2021 In December 2022, he published a book, ‘The New Country’ about bringing city sophistication to rural projects. He is currently working on his second interiors book about the changing trends in luxury design.
