An intense immersive experience designed for you and about your specific business needs
This program is about envisioning, planning and then elevating your business to the next plateau and building a legacy business.
A one year partnership specific to your firm and integrating The Design Paradigm® principles alongside one on one intensives throughout the year. This is the ticket to growing a sustainable business and being prepared for whatever gets thrown your way.
My philosophy is the best way to work with an interior design consulting client is to get to know their business- how they operate- where the deficiencies are and what to do next to elevate to the next level. This is my preferred way to work.
Seasoned Designers
For some designers who have established firms, I am here to accelerate your growth with focused and specific plans for actionable results.
Designers changing direction
Other designers need guidance to add more services, refining their sales skills, increase marketing awareness- any of these areas are in my wheelhouse.

I'M READY TO LEARN!
Megan Daughtry
TDP Designer - Class of 2023
"I just had to share the great news! I just got off a follow up call with new clients after they received their visual fee proposal. They said it was very organized and easy to follow and they are ready to sign a contract!!!! Woohoo! The fee is $17k + hrly PM and a $75k minimum spend!
I’m so grateful you are providing us TDP folks, your process documents and training us on how to implement them. I’m benefiting from all the things you’ve figured out works and gifting us with these resources!"
Michelle G.
TDP Designer - Class of 2023
"I have been in business for many years and periodically like to reevaluate the way I do things. This course is a reevaluation on steroids as it analyzes every aspect of the business.
I have done proposals in the past but NEVER like this!!  I love the idea that the flat fee visual scope of work is consistent with our design aesthetic…it makes so much sense and am working on the templates to make it my own!"

Sunita Sapru
TDP Designer - Class of 2023
"Signed my first full design service client of 2023! 6 months after enrolling in the TDP and 3 months of implementing everything I have learnt so far--it happened!! I have now officially made double of what I invested in the TDP.
Thank you Cheryl you have taught me how to respect my clients, their money and their vision and you have taught me how to respect my business. No one can teach the business of doing business like you and there is nothing else out there like TDP!"

"Rather than truly running a “business” that just happens to be interior design. Cheryl is the only coach that really resonated with me and this philosophy. Her business savvy and expertise is unlike anyone else I’ve seen. She is truly passionate about raising the bar for other designers and the industry; a terrific teacher and mentor."
