What if your first 100 videos aren’t supposed to be good?

They’re supposed to help you get better.

🎧 In EP 503, Kimberley Seldon talks with marketing expert Daniela Furtado about why interior designers should stop overthinking video—and start publishing. The goal isn’t perfection. It’s to find your voice, build confidence, and discover what connects with potential clients.

You'll learn:
▫️ Why your first 100 videos are practice, not perfection
▫️ How to get comfortable on camera and start posting
▫️ What interior designers should share to attract ideal clients
▫️ How to create a content calendar without overwhelm
▫️ Why simple iPhone videos can outperform polished productions

You can be incredibly talented, work hard, and still feel like your business is constantly running you.

The problem isn't that you're not doing enough.

It's that too much of your business may still depend on you.

Every project has its own aesthetic, but the business tasks behind those projects don't need to be reinvented every time.

Systems give you a repeatable way to handle the work—so you aren't making the same decisions, solving the same problems, and explaining the same processes over and over again.

And once a process is documented, you can teach someone else to run it.

That's the shift from working in your business to working on your business.

At Business of Design®, we teach interior designers how to build those systems—from project initiation through project management—so you can create more consistency, delegate more effectively, reduce costly mistakes, and spend less time putting out fires.

You don't need to work harder. You need a business that works better.

At High Point Market , Kathy Kuo is looking for what’s next.

As one of this year’s High Point Market Trend Spotters, she is weighing in on the trends, products, and ideas shaping the industry.

🎧 But EP 502 goes much deeper than what’s trending. Kimberley Seldon and Kathy Kuo of Kathy Kuo Home get into the part of sourcing that can make or break your profit: procurement.

You'll learn:
▫️ Why drop-shipping to clients can create costly problems
▫️ The hidden costs of freight, receiving, storage, and damages
▫️ Why procurement needs to be built into your pricing
▫️ How better systems can protect your profit margin

✨ Look beyond the product cost. The real cost of procurement includes everything that happens after you place the order.

The most confident designers aren’t guessing their way through projects. They’re following a clear process.

When clients understand the structure of a project from the start, trust increases, decisions move faster, and the designer can lead with confidence.

That’s exactly what the Business of Design® Project Initiation Bootcamp teaches.

In just 4-weeks, interior designers learn how to implement the first steps of the BOD™ 15-Step Project Management Strategy so projects begin with clarity, structure, and leadership.

Don't miss this chance to completely transform the way you launch projects.

Every project is different. But that doesn't mean everything about the project needs to be figured out from scratch.

When there's no consistent process, you spend time recreating emails, checklists, documents, decisions and next steps.

👉 That's exhausting—and expensive.

A better approach? Build the process once, then improve and repeat it.

That's what systems are for.

Business of Design® gives interior designers a proven framework for moving projects from consultation to completion without reinventing the wheel every time.

✨ Stop starting over. Start building a system.

➡️ define scope clearly
➡️ establish your leadership
➡️ start projects with structure

You don't need more hours in the day.
You need a better way to use the ones you have.

🎧 In EP 501, Kimberley Seldon talks with Sierra Collins of Sierra Learnership Collaborative about why even successful interior designers can feel perpetually behind—and why the problem often isn't effort, but structure.

You'll learn:
▫️ Why task switching is killing your productivity
▫️ How to plan your day around your energy
▫️ Why vague to-do lists create decision fatigue
▫️ How to identify your "Big Three" priorities

✨ Design Intervention: Don't just set the goal. Set the system.

➡️ lead clients with confidence
