The Benefits of Running Your Interior Design Business in One Software

 

Do you pay for various apps, software, and services to source products, track your time and expenses, invoice your clients, and manage other administrative tasks to keep your business running? We get it, it comes with the territory, but why spend hours a day using multiple tools when you can use ONE that you really love?

If you’re tired of chasing your own tail tracking, logging, purchasing, and billing in different places that don’t connect with each other, it’s not too late to make a switch. Don’t settle – why should you? Thousands of design professionals have transitioned onto Ivy to manage all of their back office operations in ONE place. Read why designers really love running their business with Ivy.


You can finally manage all of the moving parts in one place

“Ivy allows us to handle all points of our projects in one space where the whole team can accomplish tasks together! It has changed our workflow from using multiple platforms and applications to having it all housed in one space to easily work on our projects, no matter what phase they are in.” – Lindye Galloway, Lindy Galloway Interiors

It's really a beautiful thing when a career and a passion come together. ✨ It's not always easy. It's not always fun. But it is something that I always LOVE! 💕 When I started this business, I was a girl with nothing but a dream of being an interior designer. I was working in wedding planning at the time but knew that what I truly was passionate about was dreaming up gorgeous interiors for people to call home. 🏠🙇🏼‍♀️ So, I took a risk to start something of my own and it has immensely paid off! I have worked with so many wonderful clients to design their dream homes and have met so many awesome people along the way! ❤️This girl is still dreaming big (and has a long way to go!) but if you fall in love with your work and are excited about all that is ahead everyday, your dreams will all start to fall into place. 🙌🏼 The hustle is real, but so is the passion! #lindyegallowayinteriors ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 📸 @lovisaphoto

You can skip your drive to the design center

“Because we are in San Diego, and we don’t have much of a design district, we depend a lot on shopping online. The Ivy Product Clipper makes our lives so much easier…It’s great being able to shop for a client and just keep on moving.” – Maegan Swabb of M. Swabb – Decor + Style

You speed up the pace of your projects

“Having photos on proposals has helped our clients approve merchandise more easily and help move our projects along more quickly.” – Lindsey Borchard of Lindsey Brooke Design
