When it comes to finding trades and suppliers…
- Do you struggle to find trades who are open to your design ideas?
- Are you tired of being undermined in front of your clients?
- Have you dreamed of working with contractors for repeat business?
- How are you establishing boundaries for positive working relationships?
- Are you spending endless hours sourcing products for your projects?
Strong partnerships with trades and suppliers are non-negotiable if you want your design projects to run smoothly. Typically, a lot of trades view designers as either a ‘hobby’ decorator who is out of their depth or a 'diva' designer who is controlling.
How trades conduct business—and the way products perform and hold up over time—reflects on you. These people come into your client’s home and you are ultimately responsible for their quality of work.
My incredible team of trades have been with me for more than 8 years and I am so appreciative of each, and every one of them. Our suppliers are equally enjoyable to work with and these relationships have a huge impact on the success of your business.
I have been on both sides of the fence and there is no better feeling than knowing you have the best people in place who you can always count on for support.
Don’t risk your reputation, these amazing partners do exist. With the right approach, I can help you find them.
