Interior Redesign & Professional Organizing

Q. What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?

A. The more details you can share in regard to what you want to accomplish the better the match with the potential provider will be. Know your budget and limitations as well as your aspirations. Prepare a list of questions to ask the potential provider and also be prepared to answer any questions the provider might have. It is okay not to know everything in regard to what is possible. But you need to know what you want to change. You are asking for professional assistance in order to come up with the best possible results for you. Keep an open mind.

Q. If you were a customer, what do you wish you knew about your trade? Any inside secrets to share?

A. Many service providers are hooked up with retailers and manufacturers of accessories and furniture, which will make them promote the products of these businesses and manufacturers sometimes at the expense of better solutions. I am not affiliated with any particular business or industry to benefit financially from promoting them. I will always look for the best solutions solely based on my client's needs and desires. Many interior designers add a significant percentage to the purchases they recommend and make on your behalf to boost their income. When you work with me you can be certain that I have only your good in mind and no other unknown motives. As a matter of fact, I usually give a discount to my organizing and design clientele who wish to purchase my artwork out of their own desire. This will benefit any client who likes my art and wants to buy it.

Q. What questions should a consumer ask to hire the right service professional?

A. Do you provide your services in my area? How much do you charge? How long have you been in business? Do you have recommendations? What is your availability? What are your terms and conditions? How do we start?

Q. What important information should buyers have thought through before seeking you out?

A. Their budget and basic project boundaries. Their desires regarding the outcome of the project. Their ability and willingness to personally participate in handling any aspects of the project. Going rates for the services sought after. Anything else important to the buyer in question.

Q. Why does your work stand out from others who do what you do?

A. I combine organizing with design. As an artist, esthetics plays as important of a role to me as function when it comes to design. There are not too many organizers who are also designers/artists. As a designer I will pay special attention to keeping your surroundings easily organized and neat looking. I will also reuse what you already have whenever possible and limit your purchase expenses by doing this.

Q. What do you like most about your job?

A. I like the variety of the creative aspects of the work and I love the results of a completed project. I also love the feedback and appreciation I get from my clientele for a job well done. Doing interior redesign and professional organizing can be very satisfying.
