BEFORE OUR CALL

Design & Business Mastery is a business growth program for interior designers, built on Ingrid’s own experience as an award winning interior designer. Ingrid works with you on the full picture of a scalable studio, including client acquisition, pricing, sales, systems, and how to stay in the lead with your clients throughout the design process, so you attract better clients, charge what you are worth, and build a studio that reflects your vision instead of chasing every project that comes your way.

Both. Ingrid does not take over your business, and she does not just hand you information either. She works with you to build your positioning, your offer, your marketing, and your sales process, and just as much on the real, day to day situations with clients, how to stay in the lead during the design process, handle difficult moments, and guide clients with confidence. She then shows you how to run all of this yourself.

Yes. Both Growth and Elite can be paid in full or spread out across the program. Ingrid goes over the exact options together with you on your call.

That depends on your starting point, your niche, and how consistently you implement. Some designers see traction very quickly, others need a bit more time to test and refine their positioning. What Ingrid can promise is a clear system and real support, not a fixed timeline.

Ingrid works with interior designers who are ambitious and ready to grow, whether you already run a studio and want higher paying clients, or you are just getting started and building things from the ground up. If you care about your craft and want to build a real business around it, this is designed for you.

Yes. Ingrid has worked with designers at every stage, from those still working a job on the side to established studio owners. What matters most is that you are serious about growing, not where you currently stand.

The goal is to look together at whether you and Ingrid are going to work together. Ingrid dives into your business, your goals, and where you currently stand, to see whether DBM is the right fit for you at this point in time. This is not a free advice session, it is a real conversation to decide, together, if you are going to join the program.

Sure, things might be going well, but are you truly satisfied with what you have, or do you see more potential for yourself? Be honest with yourself, are you holding back because of your own limitations? In DBM, Ingrid pushes you beyond what is fine and helps you break through to the next level, where you attract higher paying clients, land more exciting projects, and realize your full potential.

Design & Business Mastery is all about elevating your design and business strategy to align with your ideal clients. Whether you want to attract clients who appreciate your unique vision or shift into a completely new market, Ingrid will guide you in refining your brand, positioning your studio, and creating a design portfolio that speaks directly to the type of clientele you want to work with. She will help you understand what steps to take to make that shift and how to do it with confidence.

No worries at all. English isn’t Ingrid’s native language either, so she completely understands the concern. You will get through this together. DBM is designed to be accessible to designers from all over the world, and Ingrid created the program with that in mind. Plus, the global community you will be part of gives you the chance to connect with like minded creatives from different countries, how inspiring is that. It is all about supporting each other as you grow. You will have the space and help you need to thrive.

Whenever is the right time? If you feel busy and under pressure right now, that is actually the perfect moment. Because if you can build a successful business while things feel hectic, imagine what becomes possible once you are in full flow. The whole point of DBM is actually to make your business less hectic, not more. Ingrid’s students end up working on fewer projects while making more revenue, and you will learn to build systems so your business simply runs calmer. DBM is designed to give you streamlined systems and tools so you can run your business more efficiently, saving you countless hours and creating more space for what matters most, like delivering exceptional designs.

Think of DBM as an investment that pays off. The skills you learn here will help you raise your prices, attract better clients, and get a return on that investment. Chances are, you are already leaving money on the table every single month without realizing it, and Ingrid will show you exactly what that looks like and what it could mean for you on the call. If the budget genuinely is not there right now, look at your options, whether that is borrowing temporarily or taking on a bit more work for a short period. If you do not invest in your business now, you might continue to undercharge and miss out on the high paying clients you actually want to work with.

The reality is, stress often comes from being busy with the wrong things. The question to ask yourself is, are you busy with tasks that are actually moving you toward your goals. That is exactly what Ingrid works on with you in DBM. She starts by getting clear on where you want to go, what is your vision for the next year, or even the next five years. Once you know that, you will learn how to focus your time and energy on the actions that truly move the needle, instead of feeling overwhelmed by tasks that do not bring you closer to your vision. She also teaches you how to set up systems and delegate tasks, so you are spending more time on your creative genius and less time on things that do not need your direct attention.

Ingrid gets it, you became a designer to create, not to handle business. But if you want to be a successful designer, you cannot ignore the business side. DBM simplifies it for you, giving you the tools to master business strategy while staying focused on your creativity. Without that balance, you will keep struggling to find clients who value and pay for your work. Learning the business side is what turns your passion into a thriving, profitable studio.
