“When People Hear The Word Design or Designer”…What Are They Thinking?

February 11, 2010

I just read a great article on the 7 Essential Design Elements for Great Business Blogs, by Denise Wakeman.

Being an interior designer by profession, I understand how everything begins with a great design, and the people who help you create it, even with Social Media and creating a great Blog.

Designing the creative aspects of a business is just as important as how something looks.  As in the article, presentation is key to you attracting success and knowing how to set it all up.

Everyone  seems to think a Designer only knows how to make things look good. But that’s only one aspect of  the necessary talents a designer needs to be successful.

Being successful is about translation and interpreting the variables which leads to outcome and results. How you  get there, can be filled with many obstacles and problems if you don’t know what your doing and who’s doing it for you.

You must know  how to quickly change course and re-direct to accomplish your outcome. This is why your resources, the people you can depend on, are so very important to the success of their business.

Your reputation is built on your pass successes, so you better make sure you  approach every project with the utmost integrity and you associate with high quality people.

I  always believe, you are judged by the company you associate with. Whatever your profession is, always align yourself with high quality people. I believe this is your top priority.

When it comes to design, sometimes it’s not entirely about what something looks like, but more importantly, how to create it with the right coaches and mentors  to bring about your own skill sets.

I’ve come across many talented designers in all aspects of my businesses. Many in the interior design, home business development, and online attraction marketing.

Names like Tom Challan, Jerry C. Chen, Emma Tiebens, Michael Klingler, Jorge Bueno, Mike Dillard, Mark Wieser, and Todd Falcone are the best of best,  who create great results.  These are designers who are architects of career advancement.

Don’t get me wrong here, designers are trained to make things look good or to direct you to an expected outcome. Sometimes a designer will  be all about mentoring or coaching. Sometimes it’s  about creating something that looks great.

Design does have a purpose and if  it’s done properly, with the right designer, it can showcase who you are and most importantly the passions of your life!
