Follow the System

“If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.”

These are words to live by when it comes to your systems and processes.

Here at IDBA, we have a really effective process for bringing in clients and jobs. It builds trust with your clients and sets you up to get paid for more and more work. The problem is, sometimes we get in our own way. We feel the need to get creative and stray from the processes that we know work.

Systems and processes are not where you need to get creative; save that energy for your designs! In this episode of the Interior Design Business podcast, I’m sharing some examples and analogies to demonstrate what happens when you stray from a tried and true process.

Topics covered in this episode include:

  • What happens if you don’t follow your processes
  • Examples of processes that work
  • What the “pass the salt” moment is and why you need to master it
  • How design jobs are like dinner parties


If you’re someone who gets caught up in the excitement of a potential sale and strays from your processes, this is for you.
