In this Q&A episode, I answer real questions from interior designers covering the challenges we all face in building sustainable design businesses. From pricing confidence and marketing strategy to speaking opportunities and avoiding burnout, this episode tackles the practical issues that keep designers up at night. If you've ever wondered about charging what you're worth or felt stuck between beginner and expert, this conversation offers both validation and actionable guidance.Hope you enjoy the episodeBeth xxQuestion 1: Building Pricing ConfidenceA designer reached out feeling stuck between charging what she thinks her services are worth versus what she thinks clients will pay. This common struggle often comes down to confidence in your systems and processes. The first part of this is about mindset and about how you think of yourself as a designer and a business owner, but you can't really have good mindset around this without having strong systems and processes to have the business set up beneath you as a strong foundation.The key insight: There can be two designers who are equally talented, but the one who provides a seamless client experience is perceived as having greater value. Part of our role is creating a process that is stress-free, with clear communication and professionalism.Question 2: Marketing in the Right PlacesA Perth-based designer doing corporate work (office fit-outs, hair salons) was spending significant time on Instagram without seeing results. The disconnect? Her clients weren't finding her through Instagram—they were coming through word-of-mouth referrals within the industry. We got talking about thinking when it comes to marketing, am I talking to my potential clients in the space where they are at?The lesson: Consider how many leads you actually need per year and whether your current marketing efforts can realistically generate that number. Sometimes a targeted approach works better than trying to be everywhere.Question 3: Taking Speaking OpportunitiesWhen a designer was approached to speak at an expo but wasn't sure if it was the right fit, my advice was clear: unless it's obviously wrong for you, say yes.You never know who is listening and who is watching. If you get approached to do a speaking gig or maybe on a panel or on a podcast, I really encourage you to take it because it's a great opportunity to show your skill and build your authority in the space.Question 4: Moving to the Next LevelA designer feeling stuck between beginner and expert asked how to reach the next stage of running a confident business. The answer involves several key elements:Mindset: Having confidence that you're good enough and that opportunities will come your way for a business of that level.Mentorship: Finding someone who can help you build your business to the next step, whether through formal coaching or informal relationships.Investment: Putting money into business-building tools like better photography, branding, or systems that you couldn't afford when starting out.Systems and Processes: There is absolutely no business that can go to the next level if their systems and processes are not in place. Having bad systems and processes or no systems and processes in place is absolutely putting a ceiling on your business.Question 5: Growing Without Burning OutA Townsville designer whose business had grown significantly was feeling exhausted and starting to resent it. The solution involves several strategies:Define Success for You: Making sure that you're working towards what success is for you is super important. Success should be defined by your personal values, not external factors.Set Boundaries: Create clear boundaries between you and clients, and around your projects and how you work.Permission to Pause: It is okay to pause, to put the out of office on and say I'm just taking some time to catch up on some things. Sometimes stepping back is exactly what's needed.The Power of CommunityThroughout this Q&A, one theme emerges clearly: There's no one perfect way to run a design business, but there are shared experiences. There is wisdom in community, and there's so much power in hearing someone say, 'me too.'This episode demonstrates that the challenges you're facing aren't unique to you—they're part of the journey of building a design business. The key is having the right support, systems, and mindset to navigate them successfully. Want to work together?

Brad Stevens, Entreholic, is a career entrepreneur with experience in manufacturing, product development, supply chain, sales team development, operations, financial modeling, marketing automation, digital marketing, SaaS, and growth hacking. His most recent company, Entreholic, provides an affordable, entrepreneurial approach to outsourced digital and traditional marketing services for small to medium businesses. Mission: Growing up in an entrepreneurial family, Brad saw firsthand what it takes to run a business.  After college, his experience spanned many industries and business functions, but marketing stood out to him as an under-served yet fascinating area. It was that passion that sparked the idea for Entreholic. Mindset: Having an entrepreneurial family, launching a business wasn’t as scary for Brad as it may be for others. Still, he makes focused effort to maintain a mindset for success and attributes his fitness routine for providing the discipline needed to follow through on what it takes to launch and grow a successful business. Marketing: If you are intimidated by the sales process, you have to hear Brad’s explanation of how he secured many of his first clients. Approaching meetings as a way to educate clients on the opportunities and resources available to them, versus trying to “sell” them was key to helping him build relationships and a reputation as the go-to source for all things digital marketing. Momentum: Brad shares that the biggest momentum boost has come from referrals and a focus on continuously seeking out feedback in order to improve. Masterminds: Along with the insights Brad gets from his entrepreneurial family, his decision to join Entrepreneurs’ Organization or EO has been a game changer for his personal and professional development. Mastermind Challenge: Hearing Brad speak about the impact his fitness routine makes on his entrepreneurial work ethic reminds me of the quote, “How you do one thing is how you do everything”.  Today I challenge you to look outside your business for areas where you can begin upping your game. Whether it’s a more consistent morning or fitness routine, being more present for family time, or making the intention to do random acts of kindness, hold yourself accountable and follow through on your commitment. Watch how those actions outside of your business make you even more focused and effective inside your business.  Learn more at MastermindYourLaunch.com
