Trendy Small kitchen Design Ideas in 2017

Of all the existing home renovation and remodeling ideas, kitchen remodeling seems to be one of the most undertaken. Updating your kitchen to suit your current needs is an essential process. More often than not, homeowners are on the lookout for trending kitchen designs and latest remodeling ideas to implement. The good news at EA Home Design is that you don’t need a spacious kitchen to embrace certain kitchen design ideas. You can give your small kitchen a new look by taking advantage of the following designs.

Think Corporate

Most kitchens in modern homes exhibit concrete finish. This is a significant shift. Traditionally, concrete was reserved as a rough finish for commercial spaces like warehouses. Observably, concrete isn’t just perfect for kitchen services but also ideal for the other parts of your home. All you need to do is ensure the presence of perfect synergy between it and other material used in kitchen design. Going commercial by embracing concrete surfaces (including bench tops an flooring) saves you the stress boring sterile space. Instead, you will be assured of warm contrast surfaces. EA Home Design experts pride themselves in blending fine concrete finish within small kitchens. You will not have any reason to be disappointed when you seek our services.

Electric Retro

This is yet another popular design in contemporary kitchens. Ideally, this trend is all about clashing varied colors and surface material. It might not be an easy trend for everyone but ideally something worth trying out for the non-conservative homeowners. You can decide to blend pastel colors with bold cabinet colors. At the end of the day, you just need to play around with varied surface materials and find a winning combination. The services of a professional designer come handy in implementing this design. At EA Home Design, we are always willing to offer incredible assistance when it comes to clashing colors to fit your small kitchen. Together with our experienced experts, you will go through multiple design inspirations before settling on one.

The Metallic Infusion Craze

You have probably met this while flipping through the pages of real estate and interior design magazines. What most homeowners do not know is that their kitchens do not have to be as spacious as those exhibited in the magazines for them to embrace this design. Looking at the magazines, it might seem complicated to implement, but that’s not the truth. You can simply start by introducing bar chairs and pendant lights. Being a small kitchen, you wouldn’t have to worry about stuffing it with varieties of metallic appliances.

Shaker Style Colonial

Well, this has gotten many people talking in the recent past. From what it seems, it is a redesign of the traditional colonial kitchen. For someone doing a quick kitchen renovation, you can start by putting in place shaker style cabinet doors and glass front feature cabinets. To maintain this trend in other appliances, simply keep the color pallet white and clean. Just remember that you do not have to know it all to implement it; our interior designs experts are always there to help!

The Five Key Competencies for a Modern Tech Marketing Organization

Our current market landscape is being led by self-educated buyers, and these buyers are moving fast and marketers need to move faster.

1.   Content Marketing

Given the session kick-off and the value of reaching the self-educated buyer, it is no surprise that content marketing is a top factor. However, companies are not being as strategic as they could be. In many organizations, there are multiple groups engaging the customer—product marketing, corporate marketing, field marketing, PR (earned media), and social—and unfortunately, tone and style often do not align. To reduce this “messiness” and provide a more omni-channel approach, a head of content or editor in chief should be considered. This position allows content paths/links to be created and a consistent message shared with your customers.Once this great content is created, work with your employees to be advocates and share the content socially to expand the reach.

2.   Sales & Channel Enablement
This is an evergreen issue. Sales is often sent materials directly from multiple groups, like product marketing, which can be overwhelming to the team. This is where sales enablement through corporate marketing can be extremely beneficial. The sales enablement team can be the intermediary to ensure materials are, in fact, sales ready and provide ongoing content audits to streamline the path of sales-ready tools. Allowing the sales team to spend more time with final tools and most important, your customers.

3.   Customer Intelligence & Analytics
Data is a must-have for understanding the buyer’s journey, unfortunately; that data is normally poor, or not parsed out effectively. To use data effectively, it is encouraged to build a marketing operations ambassador program, which allows non-marketing employees access to marketing data to leverage for decisions. For example, finance could use some data to determine customer lifetime value or for budgeting, whereas sales may be able to tie customer engagements to sales to learn more about prospects.

4.   Integrated Digital & Social Engagement
Providing an omni-channel experience is an ideal scenario for most marketers; however, we are not there yet. Similar to the challenges of multiple groups producing content, traditional media teams and those responsible for social promotions face similar disconnects, and it’s noticeable. However, having individuals own specific tools and collaborate/streamline messaging is key for success in the quickly growing social world.

5.   Loyalty & Advocacy
Many organizations live and breathe through a subscription economy, particularly when it comes to software. The challenge can be keeping customers happy as new competing solutions are constantly being launched. Building this loyalty and advocacy lies across the product, corporate, and field marketing teams. Customer success teams that care about a customer’s experience and determine ways to reduce response time and ease of use can play a major role in success.
