Frequently Asked Questions
How do I justify an upfront deposit to a new interior design client?
Frame the deposit as a 'Project Commencement Fee' that secures their slot in your studio's calendar and covers the initial overhead of sourcing and custom procurement.
What is the best way to prevent scope creep during the design phase?
Explicitly state the number of revision rounds included in the estimate; any requests beyond that should be billed at a pre-defined hourly rate.
How can I protect my timeline if the client is slow to approve materials?
Include a clause stating that the estimated completion date is contingent upon receiving client approvals within 48-72 hours of presentation.
