Would they know they were meant to be
your client if they landed on your home page?
I know it sounds
crazy, but maybe
you should be my

I know it doesn’t
look like it, but

Who do you
want to work
with?
I simply need my home to
look ten times better than
that Lizzie Borden’s home.
That decor drove that
bitch cray cray.

Is this
your
ideal
client?
If so,
how can you
make her smile? Cross-eyed Cynth

I hear it’s
better than
Facebook.
They say
“The money
is in the
list.”
e best way for you to stay in touch with
your peeps is by ge ing them on your email list.

You'll send them a newsle er.
But give it a be er name.
Pardon me, but could I interest
you in receiving a copy of the
“Grey Gardens Gazette” It is
filled with tips on how to make
your squalor holler. Oh, did I
mention it’s free?

Show your design work oﬀ so peeps
can see if you are their dream designer.

She said she didn’t want to work together cuz
I don’t do “Golden Girls” rooms anymore.
I know, I don’t want to do those types of rooms
anymore, Madge. I just feel so rejected. She said
my designs are like Delta Burke’s.
Like I’m a way better designer than Delta
freaking Burke. Puh-lease.
And if you aren't
their dream designer,
let them see that.

horrid. Make them stop. Amen.
