Fellow designers and business owners,
Have you ever thought, "There must be a better way to do this!?!" Could you use some time-tested strategies to make your design practice work for you, so you have more time and energy to build your business, to enjoy the things you love, and to have more creativity for your clients?
Foundations of a Garden Design Business is a course that is structured to present relevant and curated business information specific for landscape designers.
I have operated a design build company for over 10 years. Take a peek at my work here: gardensbymardi.com Drawing on my experience as a designer, I have also been providing business coaching to emerging professionals, and this has evolved into an online business course: Foundations of a Garden Design Business which I offered for the first time this spring. This course is a roadmap for starting, growing, and maintaining a successful landscape design business.
A new cohort will start on July 25, and you can see the details at my course website: mardidover.com It is a live 8 week interactive class covering topics around setting up your business, creating systems, schedules and tracking work, client and contractor relationships, making space for creativity, and more.
This class could benefit:
-Students and recent graduates of design program
-Emerging professionals
-Garden and landscape designers
-Landscape architects
-Design-build professionals
-Designers who are ready to launch their own firm
The weekly class offers plenty of interaction, as creating a sense of community and support that is as important as the content covered. (This connection to other business owners was something I really missed when I was starting out! ) The course is offered at 2 pm Eastern, so those in many time zones might attend.
I am attaching a document that contains an overview of the course, as well as info on the membership called Community Exchange. Reach out with questions: mardi@mardidover.com
