Pick the service that fixes the biggest leak first. For most decorators and designers, that is a portfolio nobody can find. For most stagers, it is a referral flow that depends on a handful of agents. Everything below is designed to answer one question: when someone sees your work, can they find you, trust you and reach you in under a minute?
-
Portfolio websites and project pages
A site where every finished room has its own page, so the work itself does the selling.
-
Image SEO and visual search
Photos that are named, captioned and placed so search engines and pinners can find them.
-
Local search for studios and home offices
Show up when someone nearby searches for a decorator or stager, without exposing your home address.

Realtor referral marketing for stagers
A repeatable way to become the stager agents call first when a listing is coming.
Portfolio websites and project pages
Start here if your best work is hidden in a single gallery, on Instagram, or in a PDF you email on request. A portfolio site gives each finished room or home its own page, with a short story, the brief, the constraints and the result. Those pages rank, get shared, and give a homeowner or agent something specific to point at when they call.
This service suits decorators and designers whose clients are homeowners, and stagers who want agents to browse before-and-after work. Read the full scope on the portfolio websites page.
Image SEO and visual search
Choose this when you already have good photos but they bring in nothing. Design clients search with pictures: they type "warm white oak kitchen" or "small condo living room ideas" and scroll the image results, or they save pins and screenshots for months. Image SEO makes your photos legible to search engines through filenames, alt text, captions and placement next to relevant writing.
It pairs naturally with project pages, because an image ranks best when it sits on a page about the same subject. The details are on the image SEO page.
Local search for studios and home offices
Start here if people in your own city can't find you when they search "interior decorator near me" or "home staging" plus a neighbourhood. Many design businesses run from a home studio, which raises a real question about whether to show an address. Google's own Business Profile guidelines ask service-area businesses to hide it, and we set your profile up that way.
This service covers your Google Business Profile, service-area pages for the towns you actually serve, and review requests timed to the reveal. See the local search page.
Realtor referral marketing for stagers
Choose this if you stage homes and most of your work comes from listing agents. The goal is to become the first call when an agent signs a listing, and to stop depending on two or three people. We build an agent-facing page, a simple listing-results record, and a steady, non-pushy outreach rhythm you can keep up between jobs.
Designers who do pre-sale work or builder show suites can use the same structure. The realtor partnerships page explains the method, and the referral pipeline guide gives you the worksheet.
How to choose in five minutes
Answer these honestly and the order usually becomes obvious:
- Where did your last five clients come from? If four came through agents, start with realtor referrals. If four came from search or social, start with the portfolio.
- Could a stranger find three of your projects in under a minute? If not, the portfolio comes first, whatever else you do.
- Do you show up on the map when someone searches your trade and town? If not, local search is the cheapest fix available.
- Are your photos named and described? If they are still camera filenames, image SEO will make better use of work you already paid for.

What none of these services include

Frequently asked questions
Which service should a new decorator start with?
Usually the portfolio website, because every other channel sends people to it. If your current site already gives each project its own page, start with local search instead.
Is the realtor referral service only for stagers?
It was built for stagers, but designers who do pre-sale refreshes or work with builders on show suites use parts of it too. The mechanics are the same: a small number of professionals who send repeat work.
Do you run paid ads?
Where the numbers support it, ads sit inside the plan, usually to promote proven project pages or to reach agents in a specific market. We don't sell ads on their own as a first step for design businesses.
Can I buy one service without a monthly plan?
Our work is delivered through the monthly plans on the pricing page. The consultation will tell you which plan covers what you actually need, and what's in scope is written into your proposal.
