Grow small and incrementally. It’s not a race. It’s a marathon! Shaun and Rebecca sit down with Rona Graf, the founder of Grace Blu Interior Design. Rona shares her journey from being a teacher to starting her own design firm and discusses the importance of slow and steady growth in building a sustainable business. She explains why businesses should focus on sustainable, incremental growth instead of rapid expansion and how rushing into growth can lead to challenges.

In this episode, they discuss:

  • Rona’s background and her transition from teaching to interior design
  • Starting Grace Blu during the 2007 economic downturn and the challenges she faced
  • The importance of having a business mindset, not just a creative mindset
  • Growing your business incrementally instead of rushing into expanding too fast
  • Hiring people with skills where you lack expertise and delegating tasks and responsibilities
  • The importance of collaboration and learning from others in the industry
  • The importance of saying no and not taking on every project
  • Balancing the creative and business aspects of running a design firm
  • Rona’s approach to managing client expectations and the importance of not showing them the messy, unfinished parts of the work
  • How hiring a CFO has helped her forecast revenue, manage overhead costs, and make informed business decisions
