Making Clear Offers for Design Services


Listen Later

Do you feel like clients are taking over your design process? Struggling with pricing conversations and setting boundaries? In this episode of Interior Design Business, I'm diving into the key strategy that keeps you in control—making clear, confident offers.

I’ll reveal why many designers get stuck in undercharging and scope creep, and how to position yourself as a design professional (not a personal shopper). You’ll learn how to separate your design fees from purchasing, create irresistible offers, and ensure you’re always paid fairly. Plus, I’ll share the mindset shift that will transform how clients see your value—and why they’ll say “yes” to your proposals without hesitation.

In this episode, we cover:

  • ✅ Why making unclear offers puts you at risk of clients taking over
  • 🚫 The #1 mistake designers make—treating themselves like salespeople instead of experts
  • 💰 How to separate your design fee from product sales and increase profits
  • 📋 The step-by-step process to create structured offers that clients love
  • 🛑 How to set boundaries to avoid endless research and unpaid work

If you want to confidently price your services and take control of your design projects, this episode is a must-listen!
