Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Phil Shearon. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.
Phil, thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. Let’s start with a story that highlights an important way in which your brand diverges from the industry standard.
Absolutely, one of the aspects that distinguishes our business is the way we approach landscape and pool design, which shares several similarities with the world of interior design. Both involve a creative vision, meticulous planning, and a dedication to bringing that vision to life.
Just as interior designers collaborate with professionals to shape the indoor space, we work closely with experienced landscape and pool designers to craft the outdoor environment. Both processes begin with the client’s vision and the expertise of our designers in translating that vision into a tangible design concept.
What truly sets us apart is our commitment to seeing the project through construction, just as in the world of interior design. In both cases, the design is brought to life by skilled craftsmen, builders, and artisans. The hands-on approach offers our clients a similar level of involvement and commitment, ensuring that the design is not only beautiful on paper but becomes a functional, breathtaking reality.
So, while we may be in the business of crafting outdoor spaces, the core principles of design, collaboration, and a dedication to excellence are shared with the world of interior design. We’re all about creating stunning, functional outdoor spaces that leave a lasting impression.
Awesome – so before we get into the rest of our questions, can you briefly introduce yourself to our readers.
I’m happy to talk with you! My name is Phil Shearon, and I come from a family with a multi-generational background in Arizona’s homebuilding industry. My journey led me to transition from my “Corporate America” life to embrace my true passion for landscape and pool design. At Shearon Design Collective, I am the Founder and Principal Designer, leading our Landscape Designer and Pool Designer teams that specialize in crafting extraordinary outdoor spaces through mindful design.
What sets us apart is our commitment to delivering personalized and immersive experiences for discerning clients. Our meticulously crafted 3D designs and immersive video walkthroughs allow clients to step into their envisioned outdoor havens, feeling the ambiance and experiencing every intricate detail.
We don’t just stop at design; we see projects from concept to completion, acting as trusted advocates during construction. Our proudest moments stem from the joy and lasting memories our projects bring to our clients. Being recognized as a leader in the national landscape and pool design community, with our work featured in the nationally published book ‘Inspired Outdoor Living,’ is an honor, but what truly matters is creating unique outdoor experiences.
Our brand stands out through a unique design approach, personalized service, and a focus on exceptional quality. Our efficient project management ensures timelines are met, while a collaborative and client-centric approach guarantees a positive impact on the environment and client satisfaction. We’re dedicated to turning outdoor visions into lasting realities.
Our mission statement says it all:
At Shearon Design Collective, our mission is to create remarkable landscapes, pools, and outdoor spaces that enhance the beauty and functionality of outdoor spaces through thoughtful and sustainable landscape design. We strive to create bespoke designs for our discerning clients, who value the beauty of their outdoor spaces, and we take pride in creating spaces that reflect their unique style while respecting the natural environment. With a focus on aesthetics, function, feasibility, quality, attention to detail, and exceptional client service, we aim to inspire and transform the way people interact with their outdoor surroundings.
We’d love to hear about how you keep in touch with clients.
Building and maintaining strong client relationships is at the core of our business. We achieve this through several key strategies. First and foremost, we believe in open and regular communication. We keep our clients informed and involved throughout the project, whether it’s through emails, phone calls, or face-to-face meetings. This approach not only ensures they are aware of the progress but also allows us to promptly address any questions or concerns, creating a sense of trust and reliability.
Our commitment to personalized service is another vital aspect. We take the time to understand each client’s unique vision and requirements. By tailoring our approach to their specific needs, we create a deeper connection and show our dedication to their satisfaction.
Exceptional quality is a hallmark of our work. We consistently deliver outstanding results in our designs and projects. This commitment to excellence not only speaks for itself but also plays a significant role in building trust and loyalty with our clients.
Efficient project management is also crucial. Meeting project timelines and delivering on our promises is essential. This reliability instills confidence in our clients, reinforcing their loyalty.
Our collaborative approach involves clients in the decision-making process. We actively seek their input and work closely with them and other stakeholders to bring their visions to life. This inclusiveness fosters a sense of ownership and satisfaction.
Lastly, our client-centric focus ensures that clients feel heard, valued, and understood. We prioritize their needs and preferences in every aspect of the project. By putting our clients at the center of everything we do, we build long-lasting relationships and brand loyalty that extends beyond individual projects. This comprehensive approach is why our clients choose to stay with us and continue to recommend our services.
Let’s talk about resilience next – do you have a story you can share with us?
Throughout my journey, resilience has been a guiding force, and it’s deeply rooted in faith, trust, and embracing the various seasons of life. My transition into starting Shearon Design Collective was a pivotal moment, marked by a profound belief in trusting the path that God presents.
It all began with a leap of faith—trusting God, following where I was led, and having an incredible wife who encouraged me to follow my heart. I left a successful career in Corporate America to venture into working with a friend in the Landscape Construction space, where I contributed to business development and sales growth. Little did I know that this shift would open the door to my true passion: Landscape Design / Landscape Architecture and Pool Design.
Had I not trusted in God’s plan, I would have missed out on the incredible blessing of discovering my true passions and working in a field that fulfills me. This journey is a testament to the resilience that comes from following one’s heart and embracing the diverse seasons of life. It reminds me that there’s a unique blessing in each stage of the journey, and when we have faith, the path unfolds in incredible ways. This experience exemplifies my unwavering commitment to embracing life’s changes with trust, faith, and an open heart, knowing that resilience leads to unexpected and beautiful outcomes.
