BOD™ LIVE | Design for Living

Mature, successful businesses begin with a strong foundation; a vision of where the owner wants the business to be in 3 or 5 or 10 years and beyond.

Many times, this future vision includes ideas and strategies that are fundamental for work success but fail to consider the importance of how the business will impact the owner’s life. After all, what's the point of having a thriving business if it doesn't support the lifestyle you deserve and desire?

BOD™ LIVE | Palm Springs

We know ... we're all stuck at home. Sigh. However, Team BOD™ is inviting you to visit Palm Springs (without leaving your home). Take in the local sights, tour a cool project and hang out with Christopher Kennedy!

Don't miss out on this burst of sunshine.

BOD™ LIVE | Book Club

If you know Kimberley, you know this is the book that started it all—E-MYTH. Join BOD™ for its first book club meeting. This BOD™ LIVE event will focus on the teachings found in Michael E. Gerber's seminal book, The E-myth. Gerber’s suggestions to create systems in order to run your business and save your sanity are a founding principle of what we teach at Business of Design™.

You do not have to buy the book to participate. BOD™ Live events are included with your membership.

BOD™ LIVE | Your Dream Team

With multiple projects on the go and too few hours in the day, you may have found yourself dreaming of that first hire. Or, perhaps you’ve hired before and it didn’t go as planned. 🤦‍♀️

This month BOD™ member and interior designer Laura Martin Bovard answers the question: Is it possible to build a dream team and keep your sanity?

BOD™ LIVE | Group Coaching

Back by popular demand, we'll be doing an open group coaching session in May. Come prepared with your questions, and ready to offer experience, expertise and support to your fellow members.

You are not alone. BOD™ Live meetings are therapy for your business and your life!

BOD™ LIVE | Your Operations Manual

Being convinced that systems are the solution to nearly every challenge you face in business is one thing. Creating those systems and writing them down is another thing entirely. The BOD™ Operations Manual took years to complete and we are thrilled that so many members are using it in their business to support the systems they have learned through membership. 

Come prepared to share your best practices when it comes to implementing, streamlining, and delegating systems with the support of an Operations Manual.

BOD™ LIVE | Your A Team

Every design practice, from sole proprietorship to multi-employee operation relies on the experience, strength and talent of others to complete even the smallest projects. Professional trades, contractors, suppliers, artisans, manufacturers and vendors allow you to consistently deliver on your brand promise, satisfying clients, increasing profitability and growing your reputation.

How you manage these relationships is critical to your success. Let's talk about the BOD™ Trade Partner Agreement and why a written set of rule helps to build trusted relations with your trades. Come prepared to share on the job experiences, what works and what doesn't when it comes to managing your trades, and get guidance for current challenges you are facing. 

BOD™ LIVE | November 2021

If you’re serious about transforming your business by implementing the systems and procedures you learn about through Business of Design®, our monthly BOD™ Live meetings will help keep you motivated, accountable, and in good company.

Come prepared with your questions, and be ready to offer experience, expertise and support to your fellow members.
