New beginnings in business with Jo & Georgina of Jeffrey's Interiors
Manage episode 297268294 series 2870116
This week, as we continue to look at partnerships in small business - we’re chatting to Jo and Georgina from Edinburgh-based interior designer company - Jeffrey’s Interiors, who have recently completed a management buyout from the original owners, Jeff and Alison.
It’s not something we’ve discussed a great deal on the show so far - what happens when owners decide to retire, or move on to other projects; how do owners plan for their future of their business?
Both Georgina and Jo, Managing Director and Design Director respectively, have grown up with the business in many ways , both starting out as Design Assistants with the company, and they share their journeys with us - not only about with their love of interior design and how they found themselves in this line of work, but their journey in the business itself.
They talk about the beauty of a business partnership when it works well, and what they bring to the table - and why knowing what animal you are, can help communication immensely....
We also talk immersive retail experiences, what scent can add to a room (and to a showroom), and how lockdown has shaped our relationships with our homes. Enjoy!
