Welcome to A Well-Designed Business, it’s Window Treatment Friday! In today’s episode, LuAnn and her friend and co-host of WTF, Vita (Vitalia) Vygovska, discuss how to get yourself in the right mindset for selling window treatments. Window treatments add some dollar bills to that bottom line of a project and are a nice money profit center for an interior designer. Listen in today to hear what LuAnn and Vita have to share with you. Vita is the award-winning window treatment specialist. Her company, Vitalia, Inc, is an all-encompassing fabrication, measurement, installation, and project management service exclusively for interior designers. In business for over a decade, Vita and her team are experts in their narrow field, providing designers with superb quality product and excellent communication. Most importantly, they take off the stress, save time, and give peace of mind in the job is well-done.   Show Highlights: Vita shares her thoughts on selling window treatments. Confidence, product knowledge, standing in your space, and understanding that you’re providing value at your price will increase your sales. The value mindset is a three-pronged approach: value of the product and its benefits for the consumer value that you provide as an individual value that the consumer ultimately sees Vita discusses differential advantage. Create a list of all the special things about yourself. This is your “only” and what ultimately drives your value. Attach an illustrative story for each of your “onlys” that becomes your go-to story for a particular point. The idea of the word, “expensive”: it’s all relative! Make window treatments a line item in the scope of the project you’re working on. Vita has an intake form specific to new window treatment clients, and you can get the intake form and other free goodies right HERE!  Vita shares her selling strategies and tips. Do’s or don’t’s: pricing phone calls and consultation fees. If you’re selling every single job, you’re giving yourself away. Check out WTF Live with Vita and Kimberly!
