We were lucky to catch up with Rudy Hablewitz recently and have shared our conversation below.

Hi Rudy, thanks for joining us today. So let’s jump to your mission – what’s the backstory behind how you developed the mission that drives your brand?

ELEVATEDesign is a company and brand that is driven to serve as an advocate for homeowners and contractors by providing unique problem-solving solutions catered to the outdoor living sector of construction. We specialize in curating one-of-a-kind designs, plans and presentations so that homeowners know exactly what they are receiving in return for their investment.

It is a goal of ours to bridge the gap between contractors and homeowners. We strive to accurately communicate what our client is looking to accomplish in a space by providing detailed plans with our creative influence. This allows our preferred contractors to successfully bid, manage and build something timeless for every client we serve.

Awesome – so before we get into the rest of our questions, can you briefly introduce yourself to our readers.

We started providing our services in 2020. We saw a need for a more creative-driven approach in our industry.

During the covid boom, individuals were investing more in their stay-at-home experience and often settling for a quick, lackluster plan. We wanted to provide a premium product and experience through that planning stage while maintaining efficiency and speed.

What sets us apart from others is we provide higher upfront value by personalizing and streamlining our experience. Through our high level of design practice and professionalism, we set the bar for what our clients are expecting to be delivered when working with us.

We not only serve as an advocate for our clientele, but also as an asset for our preferred contractors. Given our expertise in the outdoor living space, we represent them and their product by producing top tier design solutions and support. This ensures their prospect is working with the industry’s best.

We are most proud of the connections we’ve built overtime with our clients and contractors through our collaborative efforts.

Much of our final product starts as a brainstorming session during our initial interaction in a space. For us, there is nothing more gratifying than walking through a completed environment that was once just an idea in our head.

What do you think helped you build your reputation within your market?

We were heavy in scaling our portfolio and building relationships with like-minded individuals from the jump.

In the field of design, you are always looking for inspiration, whether that be from another individual’s work, or something you’ve come across on social media. We wanted to take that influence and apply it in our practice to better serve our clients.

We focused on pushing product and content to establish our credibility early. This allowed us to reference past work to new potential clients.

Any advice for growing your clientele? What’s been most effective for you?

For us, taking care of the client is our highest priority. When you are able to do that and deliver a high caliber product, your client becomes your advocate.

We also offer our services in non-competing regions and have diversified our list of preferred contractors. This has given us the ability to serve more clients in more areas.

Initially we serviced the St. Louis area but have grown our operation to the Lake of the Ozarks as well as Nashville, TN.
