Hello and Happy Wednesday from Elite Design Assistants! 

We are in the age of social media! It’s everywhere and everyone is either talking about it or endlessly scrolling. Am I right?

Now, social media definitely has its place. It’s absolutely crucial these days to have a presence online. Even if you are not receiving clients from your social media platforms, having a place where your clients can go check you out is a great idea. Simply having a profile online will show them that you not only have a serious business as an interior design professional, but that you deserve to be paid well for it. Your social media feed should be a collection of your worth and should communicate your design philosophy to your ideal client.

Here are a few tips to help you strengthen your social media presence. 

  1. Show up Regularly: 6 days a week is what I personally aim for and the frequency in which we post for most of our clients. If you can only show up 4 days a week, that’s fine, but be consistent about it so that your audience knows that they can rely on you and that you are in demand!

  2. Seek connection, not just followers: You can have all the followers in the world but if you have no connection with them then it won’t do you any good! Having 200 dedicated and engaged followers will win over 1000 any day. Don’t be shy or be afraid to get vulnerable with your following. The more you can share behind the scenes the better. Also, interacting regularly with other designers on your platforms will bring more connections AND more followers.

  3. Create helpful content: This is a big one! Any opportunity to help a potential client is great. You want them to leave with not only helpful information, but you want them to establish you as an expert so that they will not only come back to check in regularly but will want to hire you. 

  4. Be mindful about how things look: As designers, you know that how something looks is important. Your potential client’s first view of your feed is important! Create branding that is visually appealing and shows your brand and your talents.
