Interior Designer's Business Blueprint   "Pivoting is a sign of growth"   In today's episode, I share why we sometimes need to pivot in business and then dive into how we can pivot. Often, when it comes to our own business, we find that we get stuck doing the same things repeatedly even if they aren't working anymore.   Just a few scenarios where this may happen include being unrealistic with client budgets, timelines, and expectations or our systems for creating and developing proposals and presentations. When we take some time to reflect on how we are doing specific tasks in our business, we find that they aren't as effective as they may have once been and it's time to pivot. This may include small micro-changes or it may involve big sweeping changes.   Here’s a glance at this episode…
  • I share how to be objective when deciding what may be working and what may not be working for your business when looking to pivot.
  • I discuss how to get comfortable with being different in the interior design business and how you offer or deliver services to client in your own way.
  • I share how to allow your core values to guide your decisions to pivot in business.
  • I talk about ways to apply creativity to problem-solving in your business while including your team in the brainstorming process.
Remember, pivoting is a sign of growth. It's acknowledging that something has an opportunity to improve, and it means you have your ear to the ground with clients, your team, and yourself, which is a huge part of creating a long-standing successful interior design business.   Mentioned in this episode:
