Business Foundations

Build a design business that works for you, not the other way around.

Business Foundations is our signature business coaching program for interior designers who are ready to stop guessing and start building with intention.

Most designers were never taught how to run a business; whether in design school or while working for another firm. Foundations fills in those gaps, helping you create a business that’s aligned, profitable, and built to last.

What We Cover

Foundations walks you through the core areas every design business needs, without overwhelm or generic advice.

Inside the program, we focus on:

  • Target Audience & Positioning
    Get clear on who you serve, why they choose you, and how to communicate your value.

  • Brand & Online Presence
    Align your brand, messaging, and visibility so the right clients find you.

  • Pricing & Profitability
    Build pricing models that reflect your value and support your financial goals.

  • Processes & Systems
    Streamline workflows, client experience, and internal operations.

  • Legal Safeguards
    Establish contracts, boundaries, and protections that support long-term stability.

  • Tech & Tools
    Choose tools like Dubsado, QuickBooks, Programma, and Canva with intention.

  • Sales, Marketing & Networking
    Create sustainable ways to attract and convert aligned clients.

  • Understanding Your Numbers
    Build confidence in your financials so you can make informed decisions.

  • A clear business roadmap
