Review: Build a successful business using this comprehensive guide by longtime consultant to the Interior Design industry Lloyd Princeton. Lloyd speaks about branding, finding leads, public relations, and the internet, areas that Interior Designers would rather not spend time on. Increase your business by focusing on what counts and leave more time for design. The book also includes further guidance about marketing from prominent designers from around the country.
