Success factors include design and space planning skills, relationships with closet system vendors (Elfa, ClosetMaid, custom), combining organization with installation, understanding wardrobe needs, and targeting home renovations and luxury homes.

Most designers work with installers.

Marketing focuses on home shows, interior designers, and Pinterest.
