Andrew will be giving an informative talk about the realities of running a garden design business.
The aim is to fill in the gaps in knowledge between what is taught on any good garden design course and the realities of running a garden design business. He will be discussing setting up your business, finding the right projects, dealing with clients / contractors and growing your brand, amongst other topics.
