Kevin Monohan is the owner of Avalon NW a premier landscape installation company in Seattle. We discuss the contractor's perspective on the role of the designer through the installation of a landscape and his evolution of business.

2022/11/30

In this episode, I will take you through how I modify my typical presentation process for a virtual meeting. With the pandemic, we all got thrown into virtual meetings whether we liked it or not. For me it was a great thing- now that life is more normal I don’t conduct a lot of virtual meetings anymore but I am delighted to offer them, especially for those clients that are not always able to coordinate time away from work to meet with me. the conference room on their lunch break gives them more

The Process Driven Designer ·

2022/11/23

Year-end planning is not just about the end of the year but about the start of a new year. The calendar changes and so with it the tracking of business financials (for tax purposes anyways). But most of all it is a mindset shift. The new year provides a clean slate, a set point upon which to build. It is easy to set goals at the beginning of the year- the challenge is keeping the momentum. Join me in walking through my year-end planning process. Please be sure to subscribe and follow

13: Delivering on Expectations

The Process Driven Designer ·

2022/11/15

Each client will approach your business with expectations based on their desires and past experience. Those expectations will be either confirmed, denied, or transformed at each touch point they have with your business. This is obvious, the not-so-obvious piece is that the expectations need to be confirmed or denied across the board. If one touch point fails, it can take down the entire experience. Setting and managing expectations is essential at every step of the way. Intentionally designing the

2022/11/09

Especially as a designer, aesthetics are essential every step of the way. How you walk clients through the documents sets the tone and serves as a filter for which they digest the information provided. How you deliver and present your ideas is part of the entire design experience. It is one of the most valuable touchpoints you have with your client. It proves or disproves to your client your knowledge, talent, and dedication to them as your client. Each client wants to feel like they are your top

10: Navigating Sexism with Confidence, and the Role...

The Process Driven Designer ·

2022/10/14

Most of the construction industry and even the design industry is dominated by men. I have never been bothered by being one of few or the only woman and have been very fortunate to gain a lot of valuable exposure to the industry in an open, welcoming, and non-judgmental environment. I have had many mentors throughout my career that fostered that experience. I am fortunate and am not directly confronted with sexism often, mostly because of the fantastic contractors and crews that I work with. When we

The Process Driven Designer ·

2022/10/03

Why is defining your ideal client important? Well, it all circles back to intentionally creating a business that you love.

The Process Driven Designer ·

2022/09/13

Planning for an ideal workflow is super important not only for financials but also for my sanity. Like I said it doesn’t always work out as planned but I do put a lot of effort into planning my project flow. Planning helps to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of your time because we all know that busyness does not necessarily equal effectiveness. Planning your ideal workflow is balancing ambition and wellbeing and designing how your business fits within your life and your personality rather

The Process Driven Designer ·

2022/08/24

Balance is a widespread topic lately. It seems everyone is talking about work-life balance. But there isn’t really a quantifiable definition of what that really means. That is because it will be different for everyone. Many times it feels like one side has to suffer to achieve this balance but it doesn’t. it is all about developing the mindset and sticking with it knowing that the outcome is totally worth it. One thing you can’t consistently do is say yes to everything. it is ok and actually really

How do you charge for your creativity, what do you charge, and are you charging too much or too little? The hard questions creative entrepreneurs often find themselves asking. Why do you show up in your business or job every day? It is not just to punch a time clock and earn a paycheck. It is often so much more than that. For creatives like us, it is often quite complex. But it boils down to a balance of finances and passion. So, how do you charge enough to be profitable in a creative business? In
