Why Designers Need To Jump On The DesignFiles + SideDoor Bandwagon | Nancy Quinn (Nancy Ganzekaufer)

I’ve heard much chatter celebrating earth-shattering design trends over the years, but I’ve never experienced that level of hype and excitement over software. Let’s talk about why designers need to jump on the new DesignFiles + SideDoor integration bandwagon.

U.S. designers are thrilled about the new integration!

It not only allows you to monetize design ideas by creating stunning mood boards with shoppable collections ready to share on social media, SideDoor can also act as your complete procurement department!

Read on to learn more about why designers are so excited!

How the Integration Works

The DesignFiles + SideDoor combination offers benefits and conveniences you can’t live without, including:

Access to SideDoor’s 200K top trade product library directly in DesignFiles
Stunning design creation using DesignFiles’ top-rated mood board software
Instant generation of shoppable collections for every board you create
Earning an average of 30% commission on all purchases

You get all this and more without ever managing product orders again.

Essentially, this platform does it all so you can scale back or even eliminate product order management. As a result, your creativity shines with stunning mood boards while your automated collection generation leverages trade discounts and mark-ups using one comprehensive platform.

Improved Customer Experience

If you ever allow clients to purchase directly with links to vendors or stores and tend to source products from a diverse collection of vendors, your clients are stuck going to each checkout to complete their purchases. Easy for you, but not so easy for them.

However, when you combine your accounts, you make the checkout process a snap for clients – they check out once at one platform. The 200,000 SideDoor trade products, accessible directly from DesignFiles, are sure to meet your high standards.

Simply share a shoppable link with your client — or manage the orders on their behalf. Smiles all around and more referrals to grow your business.

Streamlined Processes

You can use the DesignFiles + SideDoor dream combo to streamline your processes while increasing your revenue. Here are just a few examples:

Generate Design Boards, Earn Commission
Once you create your stunning design boards with all your fav trade brands, you can earn commissions on all sales. In addition, your SideDoor tools mean no more dealing with the hassle and endless hours of managing product orders.

Create and Share Shoppable Design Boards on social media
You can quickly create shoppable design boards ready to share on social media, leveraging your influencer status to develop new revenue streams for your business.

Outperform Standard Affiliate Links
Instead of focusing on your standard affiliate links to earn no more than 2% to 7% on other networks, you can make an average of 30% commissions with the SideDoor integration.

Drive Sales with Impactful Design Boards
You can use one single platform to monetize your DesignFiles boards using SideDoor to create and share collections on social media. Examples of ideas you can use to leverage your creative talents and expertise include:

Trend boards such as moody rooms with gothic influences

Top choices for specific product categories (brass faucets, art deco mirrors, etc.)
Holiday or seasonal recommendations throughout the year
“Get the look” accessory boards featuring items that go well together
Themes that match your unique brand and design style

Customers have quick, seamless access to make design purchase decisions on the spot. And that means you can earn generous commissions with minimal effort. In addition, you get to do all the fun design bits without the monotonous, boring bits of managing orders. Insert sigh of relief here!

We’re so excited to help you quickly reap the benefits of combining these leading design tools to grow your business with minimum effort! You’re welcome.
