Do you have a 'rules of engagement' document setup for your business yet?
>>> BONUS video included in download where I do a deep dive into each section & clause in the TOS document, how it works to set the terms, and how it protects me and my business!! >>>
Have you been 'winging it' because maybe you're only working on your design business part time, or have only had a handful of clients so far. Believe me, eventually just 'winging it' can land you in a ton of hot water mentally, emotionally, physically, and financially.
Do you and your clients know how you operate, what to expect during a project, how and when to communicate with you, how you'll invoice them, how you'll introduce trades to their projects, who's liable for what, where you'll find their furnishings & materials, how they'll pay for those, how you deal with 'trade discounts', what happens if one of you wants to terminate the project, etc.?
This is the Terms of Service document I use in my own interior design business for smaller jobs and furnishing projects. Protect yourself and create policies around how you're running your design business.
Don't operate without a Terms of Service, no matter what stage you're at.

They definitely didn't teach me this in my design course. but now I havea complete contract to use with clients that covers every aspect of my business. Easy to use and change as needed, thank you!
