My client Sabrina is closing her retail operation. She's realized that she'd rather focus her efforts entirely on interior design instead of retail home furnishings. (And retail is changing really fast!)
She's admittedly a little nervous about the competition because she's also moving to an entirely new city. And she's got a couple of family members there who she'll ask for introductions.
Sabrina is redesigning her practice to fit her unique talents, what she loves most, and to serve and inspire her life. She's GOING BEYOND in her business.
She'd stepped into the retail to take over for her parents, one of whom had gotten quite sick and needed full time care. It was challenging and she stepped up, but it isn't where her heart is.
She loves design and wants to focus on that full time, including boutique hotels (she landed one of those projects through Instagram!)
Sabrina decided not to fight the changes going on in the design industry and particularly retail and instead renovate her business so it truly aligns with her talent, her values, and her priorities.
That's what we're doing in the "Go Beyond Intensive" in early November, just in time to set your design business up for your best year yet (despite the economic rumblings.)
Sabrina is a private client and we did the "Go Beyond" process 1:1. This is your golden opportunity to enjoy 4 days with me and just 12 other designers who are redesigning their business practices.
Our industry is in a state of massive transformation. It's neither good nor bad, it just is.
And you have a choice, you can fight the changes and keep doing business the same old way (which will leave you out of touch, hungry, and frustrated)...
Or, grab this chance to renovate your business and realign yourself with your passion and talent. That's what Sabrina did.
The whole point to having your own practice is that it delivers the clients you want, projects you excel at, and provides the kind of living that you want and deserve.
Mega Hugs,
Melissa
PS. IF YOU'VE EVER FELT ALONE IN YOUR BUSINESS or like you're the only one experiencing challenges, you're not. In fact, this is the perfect place to connect with other like-minded designers who are tired of going it alone and ready to renovate their practice for success in the new age of design. You're invited.
