128: Just Stop VII: The Squeakquel, Vendors, Renders & Offenders

Hot Young Designers Club | Interior Design Business Podcast

Shaun and Rebecca are back with another installment of the perennial favorite, the Just Stop series, where they call out things in the design world that seriously need to stop. They discussed Just Stops from the coaching industry (coaches who brag about their income without proving their value) to the frustrations with generic and ineffective outreach emails from vendors, the use of AI-generated renders without disclosing their authenticity, and much more!

In this episode, they discuss:

• Shaun and Rebecca’s Hot Spot tour at High Point Market on October 26
• Coaches focus on their earnings instead of the results they help clients achieve
• The importance of routine check-ups and preventive care
• Using AI-generated renders and photorealistic images on social media without clearly labeling them as such
• Stop doing everything yourself in your business, especially for photo shoots
• Generic, impersonal outreach emails from vendors and sales representatives
• Personalizing your emails and messages and providing real value upfront
• Vendors making websites that are overly exclusive and difficult to access
• Hotels and hospitality design that lacks creativity and design appeal
