LIVE PODCAST: How to build a good relationship with your suppliers (Angel O’Donnell)
LIVE PODCAST: How to build a good relationship with your suppliers
Wednesday 14th June - 6pm-8:30pm
Andrew Martin Showroom - 204 Tottenham Court Road
Join award-winning interior designers – Ed O’Donnell and Naomi Astley Clarke – as they share expert tips in a live podcast on how to find, nurture and retain the best suppliers in the business.
Ed O’Donnell, Co-Founder & Creative Director of Angel O’Donnell, says:
“An interior design studio is only as good as its suppliers. You could have the best ideas, the sharpest vision, the toughest work ethic, the strongest client relationships – but if your suppliers regularly let you down, you’re toast. Doesn’t matter how good YOU are. What matters is how good the people around you are. And we’re talking everyone who makes your design business possible – furniture and fabric suppliers, craftspeople, tradespeople, plant advisers, web designers, art curators, PR experts, photographers, accountants and storage and installation experts. These are the people that make, deliver, install, capture and promote your designs. So it’s vital you develop meaningful and honest relationships with them. Give them a call, ask after their kids, find out how much work they have in the pipeline, let them know if you’re anticipating delays, get them excited about your work, keep them close and keep them faithful.”
