Stop Wasting Sales Calls on Potential Clients Who Expect Free Advice

Ever hopped on a call, only to realize the potential client thought it was a free consult or assumed they could start the project immediately?

One of the biggest mistakes designers make is jumping on calls too soon—before setting clear expectations. The result? Wasted time, price shoppers, and frustrating conversations that don’t lead to bookings.

In this post, I’ll share:

• The key mistake costing you time and leads

• How to filter out the wrong clients before the call

• The simple fix that turns sales calls into booked projects

Still Wasting Time on Unqualified Leads? Here’s How to Fix That—Fast.

You wouldn’t walk into a luxury store without knowing the price tag, so why should potential clients expect anything different when inquiring about your services?

Yet, so many business owners waste hours every week on calls with leads who can’t afford them, aren’t ready to invest, or—worst of all—just want to “pick their brain.” The fix? A polished, professional Investment Guide that does the heavy lifting for you.

In this post, I’ll walk you through exactly how to craft a high-converting Investment Guide that streamlines your inquiry process, protects your time, and makes it easy for dream clients to say YES. Want to see the step-by-step breakdown? Join The DTS Files to access the full post.

Your Client Experience Starts Before They Even Hire You—Are You Losing Leads Without Realizing It?

“It’s not worth doing if it’s not worth doing well.” That’s been my mantra for as long as I can remember, and it’s exactlywhy I help my clients refine their interior design businesses to run smoothly, efficiently, and profitably.

Because here’s the truth: If your process leaves potential clients confused, frustrated, or unsure of what to do next, they’ll focus more on their uncertainty than the results they could be getting from working with you. And when that happens? You risk losing the very people you worked so hard to attract.

Your client experience starts the second someone reaches out—not after they sign a contract. If you don’t have clear, seamless workflows in place, you’re making it harder (and less appealing) for clients to move forward with you. But with just a few simple tweaks, you can set expectations, establish trust, and position yourself as the obvious choice—before you even hop on a discovery call.

I’m walking you through the exact steps to create a client experience that makes your business feel polished, effortless, and high-end—starting with the very first inquiry. Want to get it right? Join The DTS Files to access the full post.

How Interior Designers Can Organize Their Projects and Behind-the-Scenes

I find that even my most seasoned interior designers aren’t always consistent with their software or their processes, or they are, BUT they’re STILL running everything from their brains with nothing documented. This gets difficult as an interior design business starts to get busy with larger projects (things fall through the cracks) or when they bring on new team members (they have to spend SO much time training someone new, so the task of hiring seems more daunting than it needs to). Click here to read more about my top processes for your interior design business.
