QUESTIONS TO ASK WHEN SELECTING A DESIGNER
Ensure candidates have years of experience so you don’t become part of their learning curve at your expense.
- Mistakes are expensive.
Are the candidates professionally trained and certified?
- The design industry is unfortunately glutted with uneducated, untrained imposters who are unable to and shouldn’t give “professional & educated” advice.
- Feel free to ask for their formal qualifications and industry knowledge.
Does their project gallery resonate with you?
- Are their photos from projects they’ve completed or are they stock photos?
- Can they prove the photos are their own?
Do they have a team of suppliers, tradespeople, and other resources they use and/or recommend?
During or after a discovery call you shouldn’t feel more confused than before the call nor should you feel uncomfortable asking questions.
