Mark Des Cotes
About this episode

Welcome to episode 326 of Resourceful Designer. In this episode, I highlight the importance of informing your clients about your full range of services.

Drawing from my own experiences, I emphasize how clients may not be fully aware of everything you are capable of. By sharing my own revelations and successful strategies for informing clients, I shed light on opportunities for designers to expand their businesses and nurture existing client relationships.

Join me as I revisit the valuable insights from episode 2 and explore the impact of effectively communicating your capabilities to your clients.
