Description

Are tariffs, rising costs, or slow-paying clients eating into your design income?
In this episode of the Interior Design Business Podcast, I’m breaking down what it really takes to protect your profits, especially in unpredictable times. From tariff increases on imports to client ghosting and weak pricing strategies, I’m showing you exactly where money leaks from your business and how to plug them.
You’ll learn how to price with clarity, create healthy profit margins, and write solid letters of agreement that protect your time and income, even when the unexpected happens.

In this episode, I cover:

  • How new tariff hikes could impact your furniture orders
  • What to add to your purchase proposals now
  • Why sharing discounts is hurting your business
  • The 4 things every profitable job setup must include
  • A new 6-month training to help you price and protect every job
