Having worked with so many home industry businesses over the last decade, I often see the same problem at the root of all struggling interior designers, stagers, organizers, etc. THEY HAVE NO CLEAR NICHE.
Some are resistant, fearing they'll lose business (even though they barely have any to lose) if they narrow down their focus. Others would LOVE to have a niche but don't know where to start or what having a niche even means.
Today on The Kate Show Podcast, I'm sharing a few client stories to show you what is possible when you create a specialty around your brand, and how to make it happen.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
