Description

Today we are putting pen to paper and talking all about the benefits of hiring for your interior design business. I am passionate about this and feel strongly that every interior designer should have at least one assistant. Here's a glance at this episode… I dive right into why most designers get stuck on hiring and understanding how they would utilize an assistant. I share how having an assistant can help your business - what can they help with? How will it uplevel the client experience? I run through an exercise with you all about how to figure out all that you do plus what you should be doing yourself! I go through an exercise to sort out what is fulfilling about your career and what lights you up. I share my real-life experiences with moving my business across the country twice and how I have used a wide array of assistants and employees. We run through examples of tasks that an assistant can help with during the interior design process and imagine what you could do with the time you gain back to really focus on and grow your business.
