5 Claude Features That Actually Run My Design Studio (& how to set them up)

Supercharge your interior design business with AI ready systems and strategies in 12 weeks https://www.designinkco.com/design-fo... ✨ Most designers who switch to Claude end up doing exactly what they were doing with ChatGPT — one question in, a generic answer out. The designers saving real time have set Claude up properly. In this video I'll show you the exact setup I use in my own practice and with the designers I coach in Design for Success. This isn't about prompting better. It's about building a version of Claude that already knows your business, your clients, and your workflows — so you stop explaining yourself every single time. Here's what we cover: → Custom Instructions — the single most underused feature in Claude → Custom Styles — voice presets that make every email sound like you → Projects — a permanent briefing doc for every active client → Connectors — Claude pulling live data from Notion, Gmail & Calendar → Skills — reusable workflows you build once and run forever → Artifacts — proper rendered documents, not just chat responses Mentioned in This Video • Free community: [Join my Design Success Circle → https://www.skool.com/designsuccessci...] Ways to Work with Me • Find out about for Design for Success coaching → https://www.designinkco.com/design-fo... • Book a call → https://DESIGNINKCO.as.me • Explore resources and digital products → https://www.designinkco.com/ Connect with Me • Website → https://www.designinkco.com/ • Instagram →   / designinkco   • YouTube →    / @designinkco   Question for You Are you using Claude?
