209. Why decorating can be more lucrative than design

Let's tackle the stigma that exists against decorating! A lot of designers, my past self included, hesitate to call themselves decorators, and instead go by designer because they believe it sounds more prestigious.  In this episode, I'm diving into why using the term decorator doesn't mean anything less than designer, and why I've decided to lean into my decorating services and how it's boosting my business, and can be a boost for yours too! Over the years, I've done my fair share of projects and found that decorating is the thing that truly lights me up. It is one of the reasons that I've decided to make it a key factor for projects I choose to take on going forward. Despite what many people believe, you can make a great deal of money in decorating, and in this episode I share some quick ideas for those of you looking to expand more into that direction.  I also share some surprising things I've learned about decorating in my journey so far, things to keep in mind and the shifts I'm making this year regarding this element of my business. Remember that you as a designer are telling a story and decorating is a huge, vital part of that narrative for you and your clients.
