FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
No I do not have a complicated pricing system. I charge a one hour consulting fee for color selections, interior decorating and staging at $100. I do not mark up product but rather go through the customer to purchase what is needed for the job. This saves the customer money on items such as furniture, flooring, drapery and accessories. I have found that this works best for both parties involved. As a designer, I pledge to you the goal of maintaining your budget and finding good, economical solutions for your home. This includes passing on possible discounts to you, which are made available to me as a designer.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
First we meet at the customers home to discuss the project. By the time I leave which usually takes one hour, we have a plan in place. It is different for every person but usually we start sourcing for the room and within that hour I can give a color consultation. I have many contractors to call on for help.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Yes. I attend any seminar that is available. Currently I am signed up to learn more about using color with paint to set mood and touring a window treatment business to learn more about fabrics and styles.
