135: Networking Newbies: Top 5 Mistakes New Interior Designers Make

This week, I’m taking on a suggested topic from a podcast listener, a new interior design firm that wants to learn more about networking. I believe networking can be a gamechanger in the interior design industry, so learning how to make meaningful connections from the start is really important. But when you’re new, there’s a few common mistakes you might make. I’m sharing 5 of those mistakes and how you can avoid them so you can start building a strong network right from the start.

If you’re looking to build your network and you’re in the San Diego area, I encourage you to join us for the next ASID meeting and a live audience podcast event. It’s all about how to publish your work and get noticed, and we’ll have a publisher, a photographer, and a PR person giving their tips. The event is November 15 at 5:30 PM in Encinitas. To learn more and join us, visit the designcoven.com/join. This event is a free community event.
