Expectations can make or break a business. More specifically, CLEAR and OBTAINABLE expectations lay the groundwork for client, vendor, and overall business success.

In this episode, we begin PART 1 in a 3 PART SERIES: "The Importance of Setting Expectations."

This episode will lay the foundation for better understanding the what and why of clear expectation setting, why we are sometimes fearful of setting expectations, and a definitive roadmap to start setting expectations TODAY.

In this episode you will learn:

  • How to recognize the difference between Realistic Expectations and Unrealistic Expectations
  • How to recognize the fears we have around setting expectations and how to overcome those
  • Specific ways to set expectations as Interior Designers & Creatives

Enjoy this first episode in a three part series on setting expectations, and come back for the next two episodes as we continue to dive deeper into setting expectations around pricing and timeframe and the responsibilities surrounding both.
