Listen Later

Are you tired of chasing luxury clients who never seem to notice you? In this episode, you’ll learn why high-end interior design clients aren’t scrolling through Instagram looking for their next designer—and where they actually spend their time. Melissa breaks down the key mindset shifts and strategic actions you need to stop hiding behind your screen and start making authentic, profitable connections in luxury circles.

You'll discover how to step into the world of affluent clients with confidence, elegance, and authenticity. From charity galas and art openings to luxury gyms and country clubs, Melissa outlines exactly where to show up, how to show up, and why leading with genuine curiosity (not a sales pitch) is the fastest path to becoming the go-to designer for high-net-worth individuals.

IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL HEAR:

  • (00:28) Why high-end clients move differently—and what that means for your marketing
  • (03:02) The power of getting involved in charity events and how to use them to connect
  • (04:49) Leveraging luxury gyms, spas, and wellness clubs to meet ideal clients naturally
  • (07:14) Business and social clubs that offer high-value networking for designers
  • (10:41) How to position yourself as the go-to referral for top builders and architects
  • (13:36) The importance of showing up authentically in luxury circles (no pitch required)
