Designers love the creative part of a project—but many skip over the critical planning that makes a job profitable.
In this episode, I break down exactly what happens when you jump in without a mapped-out strategy for hours, budget, or boundaries—and how to fix it. From switching to fee-based pricing to defining deliverables that keep clients aligned, I’ll show you how to set up your projects for success before the design work even begins.
Topics I Cover in This Episode:
- Why planning profit is just as important as the concept
- How fee-based pricing gives you confidence and clarity
- What to include in your deliverables for built-in boundaries
- The dangers of client “wish budgets” and how to replace them with reality
- My 6-month Snapshot program to help you stop undercharging and start leading jobs profitably
If you’re tired of projects that look beautiful but don’t pay you well—this episode is your roadmap to change.
