In light of the changing economy, Business of Design® presents a 2-hour webinar featuring Julia Nikishina of New Age Financial Consulting LLC, hosted by Kimberley Seldon. We'll look at the key financial aspects to consider and plan for in the event the economy takes a downtown.
For the past few years, most design professionals have been riding high on economic tailwinds, powered by the Covid pandemic and our clients' desires to improve their living spaces. While none of us has a crystal ball, it's a good bet the economy will change and those tailwinds will become headwinds. Being prepared for that moment is essential for the business owner who intends to not only survive the changing economy, but continue to thrive.
At Business of Design®, we spend a lot of time talking about money. It’s not because money is the only thing that matters to us. Not at all. However, a business that isn’t profitable is doomed. To run a successful interior design business (the one you dreamed of owning when you started out), you must gain mastery over money.
Join us for this month’s BOD Live where we’ll talk about custom lighting.
We’ll be joining by BOD™ Members, Michelle Burbidge (Ciana Lighting) and Genevieve Wild (Wildly Illuminating), to discuss why you should never leave your lighting plan up to the electrician and how lighting can transform and elevate a space. By educating ourselves, we can educate our clients, levelling up our game as designers and adding to project profitability.
Attention UK Designers! If you're a past, present, or future member of Business of Design®, join us for a virtual coffee date on Thursday, October 12th at 3pm BST.

Join us for this month's BOD Live where we'll talk about logging your billable hours effectively.

Join us for this month's BOD Live where we'll talk about salary and the benefits of paying yourself first.
During this member meeting, we’re going to talk about your Salary, which is the fixed, regular payment you receive for your hard work as an interior design professional. Sounds simple, but do you know what most designers are earning? Not what they are charging…. what they are earning? Every full-time interior design professional deserves a salary that is six figures. Year after year, without fail. That’s the goal. If you are not already hitting that figure, let's get you there.
