Teacup

Ask for references and to see samples of their work. While they likely won't tell you exactly how much a certain client spent on design they should be able to give you a range. For instance if they showed you work they've done on a particular client, they will likely say this job is one of my higher end jobs, it will likely cost you at least 50,000 for something like this or this is one of my lower end jobs it will likely cost you no more than 10,000.

They should also be able to explain to you, why they choose certain things for an interior. Like we will paint the walls yellow because it puts people in positive moves or we need lots of red because it is condusive to sales, etc.

I owned a clothing store about 7 years ago and had a designer come in to help us build a space that would be inviting for people to browse and shop. I went to 4 designers before I found someone that had designed a retail store and showed me samples that I believe made sense for my business.

tea cup,,, i am looking for some advice on clothing,, i see you have experience and i was wondering if i could draw on that experience. I have a small boutique in mass, and i want to start my own clothing line,, or branded labeled stuff. i would like to find a manufacturer that will label jeans,,ive found manufacterers over seas, but they want orders of at least 1000,,, i need short runs to start and build off of,,, any advice on branding my own merchandise?
