Interior Designer's Business Blueprint 

In today’s episode I want to share the 7 money tips that I live by as an interior designer! Maybe finances come easy for you or maybe you’re more like me where it needs to be built into your schedule and you need a clear list of what needs to be done, what needs attention, and what to focus on.

 

Here’s a glance at this episode…

[04:26] I discuss making a ritual out of looking at your finances each week to create a habit and create a ritual of grabbing you favorite coffee or treat.

 

[07:45] I share how to start paying yourself first via auto-pay to create the habit that ensures you get paid and taken care of even from the start of your business.

 

[10:00] I dive into how to keep your money siloed and how I use this in my business to make sure my client money and my business money and profit stay separate.

 

[19:00] I discuss my method for how I use a recurring focused task on my calendar with a checklist to ensure that I can focus on what needs to be done without taking time as invoices, etc come in to stop and take care of those.

 

[26:30] I have questions for my bookkeeper throughout the month (as I’m sure we all do!) so I share how I manage these questions so that I can stay on top of what’s needed.

 

[28:30] I am a big advocate of auditing your projects to really get a feel for income and time spent on each project and share my methods.

 

[32:54] I share my simple method of using email tags to set up a system for knowing what needs to be paid or needs attention on the day you are doing your money work!
