EP 457 | How to Scale Your Interior Design Business by Making Yourself Irrelevant with Kasim Aslam
Update: 2025-12-01
Description
What if the key to earning more in your interior design business was doing less? In this electric conversation, Kimberley Seldon sits down with entrepreneur and former Google Ads mogul Kasim Aslam, who scaled and sold an eight-figure business by mastering one skill designers desperately need: making himself irrelevant.
Kasim explains why most creative professionals trap themselves in jobs instead of building real companies—and how to break that cycle by letting go of control, leveraging your team, and building systems that generate revenue without your constant involvement. His take is blunt, funny, and packed with insights that will challenge everything you believe about work, success, and growth.
If you’ve ever said, “I can’t find good help,” “no one works like I do,” or “I don’t have time to scale,” this episode will shake you awake and show you a different path—one where your business thrives because you’re no longer in the center of every task.
In this episode we learn:
- Why you must stop trading time for money to grow your design business
- The four leverage points that create scalability: programs, processes, people, and products
- How to hire top talent without fearing they’ll outgrow you
- How to build systems that generate revenue while you’re away
- Why the goal isn’t to be “redundant” but to become irrelevant in the best possible way
- How to negotiate more boldly—in business and in life
