How to Get an Interior Designer to Hire You Again | Working With Designers Pt. 3

The project is done, the designer loved it, and then... nothing for six months. In the final part of this series on working with interior designers, I'm breaking down how to turn a one-time project into a client who comes back year after year. We cover why designers go quiet (it's rarely about you), how to build a re-engagement strategy that actually works, why requesting install photos is the single most underused marketing tool in your business, and how to stay top of mind without feeling like you're constantly pitching yourself. I also share why I think most artists would see faster growth from a handful of well-timed emails than from another month of chasing the Instagram algorithm. Catch up on part one and part two of this series if you haven't already, and find the extended write-up on this topic over on my Substack, Paper Trail. I'm Hayley White, owner of The Scouted Studio and founder of The Art Coaching Club, where I help artists build sustainable businesses on their own terms. Enrollment for the Club closes September 24 and won't reopen until next year. Subscribe for more on the business side of being a working artist.
