Moving Up Market Part 1
Episode 217
Saturday, 3 October, 2026
Are you trying to move your interior design business up market by simply working harder?In this episode of the Interior Design Business Podcast, I explain why moving into the high-end design market isn't about working longer hours, taking every project that comes through the door, or hustling harder. That approach may help you get your business started, but it won't necessarily take you to the next level.Moving up market requires a paradigm shift.I break down why so much of this transition starts internally, with how you think about your value, your fees, money, success, and what's possible for your business. Before you can confidently work with a $400,000 furniture budget, for example, you have to become comfortable believing you're worth the design fee required to manage a project at that level.I also explore the powerful role your environment plays in your success. The people you spend time with can either reinforce your limitations or help normalize the level of business, income, and opportunity you're working toward.You'll hear the story of my granddaughter entering a triathlon at just eight years old and why her experience is such a powerful example of what can happen when the people around you don't teach you to question whether something is possible.Moving up market isn't only about finding wealthier clients. It's about becoming comfortable with the value you provide, upgrading your mindset, and intentionally surrounding yourself with people who support where you want to go.In this episode, we cover:Why working harder isn't necessarily the path to moving up marketThe internal mindset shift required to become a high-end designerBecoming comfortable charging higher design feesRecognizing your internal resistance around money and successWhy your environment can influence what's possible for your businessHow the people around you can support or limit your growthThe lesson behind my granddaughter's first triathlonIdentifying behaviors that support success and personal responsibilitySetting boundaries around negative influencesBecoming aligned with the clients and opportunities you want to attractShow notes are available at interiordesignbusinessacademy.comFollow us on Facebook: facebook.com/InteriorDesignBusinessAcademyFollow us on Instagram: instagram.com/interiordesignbusinessacademy
