However, this hasn’t happened as quickly as you expected because it is not enough to be a fabulously creative designer. Your business skills need to be at the level of excellence as your design skills, and quite unintentionally, you are in your own way.
And making a simple choice now can make a world of difference…
You already have what it takes to become a confident designer, offer your beautiful design gifts to the world, attract high-paying clients, and get paid what you deserve.
Now, you just need to learn the strategies to make it happen.
The 2020 Summit – Mastering Design Fees and Pricing is where your passion for design combines with the ability to earn what you’re worth to become a reality.
You Can Embrace Your Beautiful Design Gifts and Attract High-Paying Clients… and Become a Confident, Well-Paid Designer
The 2020 Summit is for the designer who is ready to stop trading dollars-for-hours and step into leveraging their business. With fee-based design services, you can make a significant difference in the lives of far more people while being well-paid.
And while money is important, this goes way beyond what’s in your bank account.
By attending this training, you will uncover the freedom and fulfillment you’ve always wanted.

What Designers are
Saying

Summit was filled with valuable information which has inspired me to take action. I've implemented your design knowledge from previous sessions and your valuable advice has improved my business.

Diane Swenson, Allied ASID, NKBA Bella Designs

I have been to many conferences and learned so much, however I have never had one touch me so spiritually as this one did. I found so much value from the information and especially the people.

Roseann Freita, Vice President, Archipelago Hawaii

I don't know when it happened exactly but I realized I can be as big as I want to be. I can do anything I want to do. I can make my dreams a reality. I am the only thing standing in my way. Well, not anymore!

Monica Nichols, Linked Design Group

There were several Ah-ha moments, but the one that threw me over the top was when Terri said no-one becomes successful by themselves. Athletes need coaches, etc. I loved how I felt when I left. Very positive and uplifted.

I appreciated the Summit and the clarity Terri provided. The steps to reprogram what was, to a structured new way of being in a business, really freed me from being stuck in changing.

Who is 2020 Summit For?
Pros
You have been in design for a number of years and want to re-imagine and maximize the profitability of your business. You realize the way we used to “do design” isn’t what works now, you are leaving money on the table, and you need a simple way to run your business and get paid your worth.
Third Act
You are in the later stages of your design career and want to streamline your business to have more time for self care, travel, and family. You want to have a design business that curates just a few enjoyable and highly profitable jobs every year.
Stars
You already attract plenty of clients and design projects but are overwhelmed with too much to do, frustrated with not creating the income that you should have, and don’t have the time to figure it out. You want to graciously let go of the small stuff and focus on the really good jobs.
Leaders
You see the possibilities that others don’t. You are committed to playing a bigger game, high-end design for elite clients, with huge visibility backed by a “rock star” team, and substantial bottom-line profit. You are looking for clarity and support to create and expand your powerful big vision.
Game Changers
You are focused on creating a new awareness of healthy and supportive environments, developing the marketplace demand for sustainable furnishings and finishes, or even new ways of bringing benefits of good design to everyone.
Beginner
You are just starting out on your design entrepreneur path and have realized that being able to design a fabulous room is only one-half of the success formula. You want to start out right, understanding your value, and charge what you are worth.
Creatives
You are a painter, florist, furniture maker, window treatment specialist, or other design creative professional who wants to expand your business. You’re ready to play a bigger game and make more money.
IDBA Members
You have done a great deal of personal development already. You are ready to dive deeper into your wisdom so that you can be a more powerful expression of yourself for your business and those you serve.

I am finally ready to try flat fee structures and taking the rest of my career to the highest point! Loved the discussion about fixed fees and not aligning my fees to what architects charge.

Debra Stewart, Debra Stewart Interior Design

I returned home from Summit with such a positive, energizing feeling about myself as a designer & the possibility of what my business can be, that it almost seemed like a dream!! I cannot thank you enough for providing such a wonderful forum for interior designers.

This was my first time to attend a Summit and
I found it restorative and transformational...
I find myself repeating things to myself when
I start to go to a negative or scarcity mindset that helps bring me around to a more positive place.

Karen Burris, Ice Interior Design LLC

Summit was great!!! It was uplifting and motivating for me both professionally and personally. I made wonderful connections with other designers across the country and I know some will be lasting friendships.

Our Virtual Event
What to Expect from Our
Virtual Event
Interior Design Business Academy has successfully run a variety of online virtual workshops and trainings for over 6 years.
By joining us for an enjoyable and exciting virtual 2020 Summit, you’ll be able to participate in the following:
Our goal for your virtual experience:
100% engagement online (with your heart) as if we were all together in the same room.
To make this year’s virtual event a success, we took a deep dive into what makes our in-person events so powerful and amazing. We’re taking that same energy and putting all those aspects into our 2020 Summit. That ensures you won’t miss a thing, and you’ll still be able to enjoy the experience of connection and closeness that’s prevalent for our live events!
We are still committed to giving you the same valuable content you won’t find anywhere else, including worksheets, paired sharing, Q & A and discussion times, as well as incredible opportunities for you to connect with other attendees for support and encouragement.
Why We’re Ensuring the Best Possible Virtual Experience
How You Can Fully Engage and Participate Virtually at Our 2020 Summit
Our ultimate goal is to provide a Sacred Space for all attendees that matches every aspect of the magic created when we meet together in person.
While an online environment makes it very easy to stand back and hide behind our monitors with the camera turned off, it’s still essential for us to create a deep connection for this environment…
To make this a success, we are dedicated to having all participants show up as professionals, who are personally responsible for being engaged and conscious when interacting with our community during this virtual experience.
We will provide our Interior Design Business Academy Conscious Engagement Online Handbook to help you prepare ahead of time
Terri can’t wait to provide everyone with an incredible virtual experience (as she is really good at doing!) She intends for 2020 Summit to be (almost) as good as if all attendees were in the room sitting next to each other!

Meeting with Terri was a major turning point. I don't do anything less than a $10,000 design fee, and I pick and choose my clients

Janet Patterson, JPID Studio

The camaraderie of the group and everyone's positive energy including our fearless leader, Terri, who brought us all together for this marvelous experience that truly reset my mindset in a positive direction!

FAQ’s
Even though the 2020 Summit will be held virtually, be prepared to move around. Not only will you be actively engaging with other participants, but you will also need to be ready to dance!
We want to keep this event as intimate as possible, so we’re limiting attendance to only 100 spots. Many of these spots will be taken by our current IDBA students, so be sure to grab a spot before they fill up!
While we prefer you to attend and participate with other attendees, you can watch and listen to the recordings once the event has ended if you’ve purchased Enhanced Access to 2020 Summit.
If you have purchased General Admission, you will not have access to the recordings after the event is over.
You can cancel your attendance and request a full refund up until October 20th. If you are canceling after that date, we will issue you a credit towards another IDBA product or event.
YES! We are planning on having just as much fun (or even more!) as we would if we were meeting live, in-person.
There will be plenty of opportunities for you to engage and interact, including Q & A and discussion times, online chat, virtual networking with like-minded designers and professionals, and even dancing!

2020 Summit

I am going to make two big statements.
After 10 years of mentoring, teaching, and guiding design professionals, I am even more certain that …
Your results and success as an interior designer are a direct and irrefutable reflection of your inner beliefs.
Your income and the level of client and design jobs you attract is a direct reflection of what you believe will (and expect to) happen…
I am not kidding.
In fact, I would lay down my reputation on it.
Here’s what you need to know…
Your EGO is going to come up with a ton of reasons for you to NOT attend…
Your family. Your clients, jobs, the installs.
The timing.
These very rational excuses are just your ego doing everything it can to keep you in the same place you are now and maintain the status quo. That’s it’s job.
But, what you also need to know is that the only way you breakthrough is to COMMIT to doing whatever it takes to achieve the life, clients, and jobs you want.
It is easy to say, “I am not ready,” or “I’m gonna figure this out on my own,” or “I’m not sure if this is exactly right for me.” It’s your ego’s way of bargaining with your future and saying, “Oh, I will do it next time.”
The resistance you are experiencing to join us in November is the exact EVIDENCE telling you this NOW is YOUR time to breakthrough and attend.
