Tiffany Cassidy: Niching into Vacation Home Design
Today with Tiffany Cassidy:
Welcome to a Well-Designed Business. Today I am joined by Tiffany Cassidy, co-founder and principal designer of Lagnappe Custom Interiors. Tiffany and I discuss the fear some have about niching down your business and how Tiffany powered through her own fear. Every guest that has been on the show that has chosen a niche has said that it was the best decision they made for their business. Tiffany couldn’t agree more and she has done such a wonderful job at combining her past experiences with what she’s learned from coach Tobi Fairley to niche into her luxury vacation rental design business. Please join us to learn about Tiffany’s niching journey and the versatile services that Lagnappe Custom Interiors has to offer.

LuAnn and Tiffany Cassidy’s Ah-Ha moments:
“Part of my resistance to niche down was wanting to keep my options open. It felt scary to limit, but learned it wasn’t limiting at all because people would come to me for help.” – Tiffany Cassidy
“I encourage other designers to niche down because it frees up your mind in so many ways and helps you grow your business in a specific manner.” – Tiffany Cassidy
As designers when we are doing full service projects working with project managers and contractors, when we make our project book we should ask ourselves what are all of the potential questions they could ask us.” – Tiffany Cassidy
