OVER-THINKING AND OVER-INVESTING IN STUDIO SYSTEMS

Investing in studio systems is an important consideration for a design business. But have you been over-thinking it and are you over-investing?

I’m seeing so much FOMO and comparisonitis around what project and client management systems are ‘on-trend’ and what you need in your design business. Surprisingly it’s something of an epidemic.

In this episode of The C Word podcast I talk about:

~ Why apps and systemisation have become a status symbol
~ When over-engineering your systems might be holding you back
~ Considerations when investing in studio systems
~ What you actually need at different stages in your design business

Overall, the biggest take-out I hope you get from this podcast is there is no perfect solution. You’re not missing out on something that only those in the know are aware of and it’s OK to keep it simple. Bells and whistles are not always best.
