The Power of Purchasing in Your Design Business
In today’s episode, we’ll be focusing on the underappreciated power of purchasing within your business. Purchasing is more than just a means of acquiring materials; it can be a game-changer that catapults your business to the next level of profitability and success. Sadly, many designers fail to realize its potential and end up leaving money on the table. They may participate in purchasing, but without a profitable strategy.

We’ll address common mistakes that designers often make and how you can avoid them. Drawing from my 30 years of experience in the industry, I’ll share invaluable insights to help you increase your profits.
Unlocking Consistent Projects and Profitability
One of the most significant issues designers face is not marking up their purchases enough. It’s crucial to recognize the true value of your work and charge accordingly. Throughout the challenge, we’ll tackle this topic head-on, ensuring that you’re pricing your products and services appropriately. Additionally, I’ll reveal my most profitable categories, empowering you to incorporate them into your business model effectively.
