Learn how to guide your clients through the maze of design decisions with interior designer and efficiency expert Rebecca West. Informed by 15 years of experience running a flat-fee residential design business that prioritized efficiency, practicality and client empowerment, West teaches valuable skills for helping clients make decisions with ease and confidence—and then stick to them! 

In this engaging webinar you’ll learn three of West’s time-tested decision-making techniques, plus a few of her favorite mini tactics too. Armed with these skills, you’ll not only be able to protect your clients from design overwhelm and decision fatigue but also keep your projects on schedule. By the conclusion of the course you’ll have: an understanding of the importance of clearly defining your client’s aesthetic goals (bolstered by West’s advice for getting that information out of clients with ease); the essential presentation method of “strategic grouping”; and skills for describing choices based on desired outcomes. 

In this class, attendees will learn:

• The importance of clearly defining aesthetic goals using visual homework
• The art of grouping options to provide context and ease decision-making
• Techniques for describing the outcome of design choices to empower clients

By the end of class, attendees will have:
