What if “great work” isn’t enough to attract the clients you really want?

Luxury clients aren’t just buying your taste or talent—they’re investing in an experience that speaks their language. In this episode, photographer and author Jeffrey Shaw pulls back the velvet curtain on how affluent buyers actually make decisions. Whether you’re aiming for high-net-worth homeowners or just want to elevate your design game, this conversation will shift the way you think about value, messaging, and what “luxury” really means.

Here’s what you’ll learn:

✅ Why interior design is inherently a luxury—and what that means for your marketing ✅ How affluent buyers think, what influences them, and what they really value ✅ The “boxwood vs. pine” mindset shift that changes everything ✅ How to create brand resonance that makes dream clients feel seen ✅ Why great isn’t good enough—and what to do about it

 

If you’re an interior designer looking to attract clients who value your work at the highest level, this is the episode that’s going to help you get there.

Listen now and start speaking the secret language of luxury.
