Nick is a successful painting contractor, business educator, and host of the Pro Painter Podcast. Over the years Nick has watched new businesses come and go, and he has learned a couple things about the type of business owners that ultimately succeed: 1) they learn from pain, and 2) they build systems. Nick talks with us about how business owners can break the stress-to-stress cycle in business ownership, and he discusses how necessary it is to be able to get away from your business from time to time to course correct and actually enjoy what you earn.

Living a healthy life includes living in a space you love. With our next guest, sustainability and mindfulness come together to do just that. Today, Marcy Garcia (MG Design Lab) joins Nick May on The Chaise Lounge. Based in Miami, MG Design Lab takes your health into account when designing your environment. Her own struggle with infertility made her realize that there are chemicals and products in design that are not the best to share a space with. A native of Columbia, she came to San Francisco and never went back. She decided that design was the career change she needed, and after a brief employment at a design firm moved to Miami and started her own firm. Marcy admits she still has knowledge to be gained in business. To learn more about what Marcy is doing, visit her website www.themgdesignlab.com and follow her on Instagram @themglab. Check out what Nick and Walls By Design are doing at www.wallsbydesign.com. I know that i'm not good at certain aspects of the business. Now that I'm more interested in being a business owner than just a designer, I just need to hire a mentor. I need to hire a coach. I need to hire people that give me that knowledge.

Join Emily & Andrew as they discuss with Nick May about how he was pulled back to painting, the creation of Walls by Design, how he got into podcasts and much more.

NICK MAYNick, owner of Walls By Design and host of the podcasts “Small Business Naked” and “The Chaise Lounge”, lives in Denver, Colorado and travels the country (and the world) talking to people and sharing their stories. In an effort to begin marketing his business in a different way, Nick began hosting unique events to engage with his current and desired clientele. He soon wondered if there was a way to marry the idea of the events with a podcast  and The Chaise Lounge, a podcast for interior designers, was born! Not long after launching this podcast, Nick began receiving invitations to host interviews of well-known people at major industry conferences. These relationships became game changers for him and took his podcast to the next level. Nick credits his success to the people he meets along the way. He is always asking the question, “Who do I need to connect his person with?” and believes the “secret sauce” is being willing to give unconditionally into other people's success. Nick’s key ingredient to building Social Capital is consistency - your brand, personally and professionally. He encourages us to be our same, authentic self everytime we show up. Today, Nick and his team are excited about the launch of several new podcasts including a student focused design podcast called “The Student Lounge” from the student perspective, a paint contractor focused podcast called “The Business Brush” and the “Coast to Coast Design” podcast hosted by two designers, one on each coast, who share their perspectives on design topics. Nick is hosting a meet-up group in Denver to help others launch their own podcasts. He appreciates podcasting for giving him a platform to teach, inspire and help others on their journey. Nick encourages us to listen to other people’s needs and see how we can be part of connecting them with a solution.   Name: Nick MayCompany: Walls By Design and iMayMediaEmail: nick@imaymedia.comCompany Website: https://www.imaymedia.com/Chaise Lounge Podcast: https://lnns.co/tICQ2a7vBK4 Email Sarah at sarah@sarahfrancesmcdaniel.comLearn more at www.socialcapitalexpert.com and www.sarahfrancesmcdaniel.com

On this episode of Paint ED, we talk to Nick May of Walls By Design in Denver, Colorado; and Dave Scaturro of Alpine Painting in Patterson, New Jersey. We discuss what’s changed in the past week, how to communicate to your teams, how to take advantage of government incentives, and how to make sure the team you have with you right now is full of high performers. We know business owners in our trade are facing a lot of uncertainty right now. We know you are facing some challenging weeks ahead. You are not alone. PCA is going to do the best we can to be a sounding board for you, and we’ll offer as much help as we can. To that end, next Tuesday we are launching an 8-week online conference, “Operation COVID-19 Response.” Every Tuesday for the next 8 weeks, we’re hosting think tank panel discussions–one for commercial contractors at 5 pm CT, and one for residential contractors at 6 pm; and every Thursday for the next 8 weeks we’re hosting Brain Meld discussions to let you kick around a discussion with your peers. Each week we’ll have topics set. WEEK ONE: Tough Calls in Management WEEK TWO: Changing Course WEEK THREE: Getting Your Finances in Order WEEK FOUR: Keeping Production Going WEEK FIVE: Marketing in Slow Times WEEK SIX: Holding Down the Fort and Team Communication WEEK SEVEN: Empathetic Estimating and Profitable Sales WEEK EIGHT: Preparing for the Bounce-Back Video playback for all Think Tanks and Brain Melds, both residential and commercial, will be available for all registrants once the live event has concluded. Go to www.pcapainted.org to register!

On this episode of Paint ED, we talk with a few leaders in our industry and in our association about—you guessed it—the impact of coronavirus--or COVID-19-- on painting businesses. Our guests are Jason Paris from Paris Painting in Minnesota, Gina Koert from SPI in Colorado, and Nick May from Walls By Design in Colorado. Jason is a PCA Board of Directors member, Gina is the PCA Board of Directors Chair, and Nick is an industry educator and influencer who just recently hosted the Crank conference and has a lot of feedback from business owners large and small. This is a sort of PCA Think Tank that is generating ideas on what some leading businesses are doing in the current economic landscape. Some of the questions we ask them are: what are you seeing in the industry, how are you responding to it, how are you saving on overhead expenses, how do you make sure you don’t lose customers, how do you make decisions for your teams and employees…we cover the gamut on what to do, and what not to do. Perhaps one of the best lines of the podcast was this, “Paralysis is not allowed.” To be sure, there is a lot of change happening right now in the economy and in the painting industry, but it’s not all bad. Your leadership is needed in your company, and leaders like you will redefine our industry for the future. It’s a time of opportunity in many ways, but you have to run lean, mean, and…smart. Time to put to use that ‘symphony of instincts’ that got you into Well, let’s get right to it. Here’s Jason Paris, Gina Koert, and Nick May.

On this episode of Paint ED, we invite three thought leaders from the painting industry to talk about the ways their businesses prepare for summer production. Nick Slavik of Nick Slavik Painting and Restoration in Minnesota, Nick May of Walls By Design in Colorado, and Nick LoGrasso of SNL Painting in Missouri discuss the different ways they get a head start on summer sales and production, how they plan to get away for a vacation, and how they help their team avoid burnout over long, summer hours. And, of course, we have a little fun along the way. Their businesses are very different in some ways, and very similar in others, but these gentlemen have one thing in common—they’re not afraid to challenge norms and try new things. And now…well…just watch ‘em go.

On this episode of Paint ED, Nick May of Walls By Design and The Business Brush podcast shares with us how he built systems for his business that increased his bandwidth to do more, persuaded his customers that he knows what he’s doing, and allowed him to get away when he needed to. But, as we discuss, this isn’t easy or common for businesses to do. Business owners, by their very nature, are expansive people with big ideas for change. That is normal and okay. “One must have some chaos in oneself to give birth to a dancing star.” But, there’s less pain and more profit with, well systems.

Industry: Personal Branding Today in The Lounge Nick speaks with Phyllis Harbinger about an important topic, personal branding. As a bit of twist, Nick gets interviewed by Phyllis this week. She asks about how KBIS went for Nick and how doing the podcasts affects Nicks first business, Walls by Design. Both Phyllis and Nick give advice on how to figure out your own personal brand and finally, they discuss Nick's wants in the near future for his podcasts. How Does Nick Do It All? During KBIS, Nick was in the midsts of starting his painting podcast, The Business Brush. He was able to work with Home Advisor and interview the guys from This Old House. As a result of Nick traveling a lot, he decided to start a Facebook Live show, every Wednesday called, Where in the World is Nick? Nick says that podcasting as a whole has elevated his name and brand in the industry. His painting business, Walls By Design, is so successful because of his great team paving the way for him to be away and trust they can handle the business. He still hires painters, deals with big picture stuff, and oversees the sales team but most other painting business owners still paint, do all the estimates, and answer the phones. Building Your Own Personal Brand When you are building your brand, you want to be successful and reach far. To do that it's great to know what kind of support system you have in both your business and your life. As you think through where you want to go in your business, you need to know what you want it to look like and you have to be willing to do all the hard work to get it there. What you want may change as your business grows and develops, and that's okay. Having a business is all about networking and getting people to know who you are, as well as what you can do for them. You can never get to do the big things until you start with the small things. You should also embrace the new technology out there. In the near future, Nick hopes for opportunities for speaking engagements. He also wants to laser focus on speaking at markets. He hopes to continue to double the listeners and sponsors for his shows. One phrase that helps people understand the personal brand that is Nick May is "What do you want to be known for?" Your name stands for something so, think about what you want to be known for, or known as, and create your niche.

ICFF with Chad James On this episode of The Lounge, Nick meets with Chad James at ICFF NYC to talk about long time client, friend and country singer-songwriter Luke Bryan; PR; and Chad's progress since their last interview about a year ago. It's Chad's first time at ICFF and he is very excited about the unique vendors and getting small glimpses into each one's best work. Later, Nick talks to Shell Broadnax of RESA who will be speaking at Las Vegas Market about whether or not you might want to become a home stager. Special thanks to Benjamin Moore for making this week's show possible. Walls By Design exclusively uses Benjamin Moore paints which can be bought online at Guiry's. This week in the office we did a paint test between Benjamin Moore and Sherman Williams' four lowest end products, as they're the most commonly bought paints. Hang tight for a link to the video on the Walls By Design Facebook. Also, Lindsay Paoli of Design Manager just featured us in her article, 11 Binge-Worthy Design Shows That Aren't on HGTV, which talks about the top design movies, TV shows, books and podcasts to check out this summer. Design Manager is the best way for your business to stay organized, get rid of spreadsheets and Microsoft documents, and put all your projects, accounting, and inventory in one place. Catching up with Chad Currently, Chad is on a 12-week travel schedule so he hasn't spent much time at his home in Nashville, Tennessee. When he does make it to his lakehouse though, he enjoys wake surfing from his boat. Chad is always very private about who he works with but once a client's project is published, he's able to talk about it. Two years ago he designed Luke Bryan's Florida beach home and recently, his work was picked up and put on the cover of Traditional Home, so Nick dug in to learn all about it. Check out the article here. His photographs (featured below) were done by architectural photographer Alyssa Rossenheck who will be on the show this month! Chad gives us some insight into the pros and cons of PR in the interior design industry and how he is able (or unable) to get his work out there. He tells us, after spending so much time on a beautiful project, often times the only people who get to see and enjoy it are the homeowners. From the very beginning of a project, he and his client talk through his photographic rights and come to an agreement about what this means. He will always respect a client's privacy even if he is disappointed he doesn't get to show off his work. His firm never talks about a project due to the fact that with social media and digital press, information spreads quickly... no one wants what they're doing and spending to be in the public eye. All of his employees sign a confidentiality agreement. Occasionally though, he get's to take photos of a project and send it out to multiple avenues in order to see who will 'bite,' just like with Traditional Home and Luke Bryan. Last time Nick and Chad chatted, at Highpoint, he told us that he hired a PR company to encourage his business and his work. Before that, Chad just kept his head down, took pictures, put them in his portfolio, and that was it. He never was a self-promotor so his PR took away the burden and discomfort of having to promote himself. Now, he's has participated in speaking engagements and has traveled to Italy, to Paris, and all over the U.S. His PR handles all online and print media, gained him name recognition, and created a BRAND- the only way to make your business grow. Lastly, Chad talks about his new house, which he closed on his birthday, but is only just now starting to design the space. He has decided to publish his home when 's finished because this house is very different than anything he's ever done before - it's contemporary! He describes it as a 'modern box' and so, he wants to let his pendulum swing in the other direction and show off this new side. Chad predicts that after a 7-year span of bright,

Nick May of Walls by Design is mixing the old with the new. He has managed to get a 12X ROI on his Facebook marketing spend plus a 45% ROI on an old school direct mail campaign.

Their branding slogan, “Painters by Trade…Artist at HEART" The very idea about telling a prospective customer that you may not be the right fit for them immediately conjures up thoughts of fear, loss & anxiety.
