Back to Episodes41: Vendors & Trades: Insider Secrets Every Designer Needs To Know
Description
Let's talk about finding specific ways to find success with our trades and vendors!
Welcome to the episode my lead designer, Heather Rau. In this episode, Heather and I discuss the backbone of a design project that involves any sort of labor and materials: your trades and vendors.
The delicate dance of finding both trades/vendors that align with your values, meet your company and client needs, and also represent you and your brand can sometimes be difficult.
This episode has detailed, actionable ways to:
* Find your own company values in order to know who you should be working with
* Specific ways to find trades and vendors when you have none
* How to retain quality vendors and trades persons
* How to "give back" to vendors and trades
* What good trades and vendors can do for you
This episode will help you grow your relationship with your trades and vendors no matter if you are new to the design industry or a veteran designer. It's a must listen for sure.
