FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Either hourly at $100 per hour or by the project. $100 for the first visit covers the initial consultation. Spring Discount! $85 per hour for initial consultation
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
It starts with the initial phone call to understand what the clients' needs are. Before our first design call I have the client pull any photos or images of styles that they like from magazines, Pinterest, blogs...etc. At the first appointment, we discuss the project in detail or in the case of a simple consultation, set the scope of the work. It is important that the client understands the fee structure, either by the hour or by the scope of the project, so there are no surprise and no stress. From that point forward, I am the clients advocate from a design standpoint. We lay out the time-lines and any budgetary constraints. Then, i go to work, using the extensive supplier resources I have been able to develop over the past two decades. My client is involved in every step of the way...
