What I started to realize is that I was focused on the wrong thing. I didn't need to - nor should I - compete on price.

About a year ago I was invited to speak at the Designers On Social Summit and today I wanted to share this presentation with you because what I talked about is so near and dear to my heart.

You see, years ago I struggled with pricing my services because I thought I needed to compete with the online design brands who were at the time offering $99/room designs. What I started to realize is that I was focused on the wrong thing.

I didn't need to - nor should I - compete on price.

Where my competitive edge really lied was in my ability to provide killer service. And that was developed in my years working in high-end hospitality design.

So today, I'm sharing my presentation - Being Boutique - how to serve your clients so they become natural evangelists for your work.

In this episode we answer questions like…

1. How to provide excellent service to clients by doing ordinary things extraordinarily well
2. How to create natural evangelists from your client base
3. What it really means to "be boutique"
