The reality is…
You are a talented designer, you know how to create a fabulous concept and remodeling plan, select bespoke finishes and polish it off with beautiful furnishings.
What you don’t know…
What you don’t
know…
Is how to position yourself to be highly profitable doing what you love.
That looks like a substantial design fee that is based on the true budget of the project.
That means being able to provide and sell as much of the construction materials as you want.
That feels like being paid for all the construction support time you need to complete the job.
That means having a strong, confident mindset backed up with a clear, easy to explain system that creates a win-win outcome that results in…
a well-designed and implemented remodeling job for your client and a big well-earned payday for you.
There are literally TENS OF THOUSANDS of remodeling projects going on today.
People are more focused on their homes now than ever before. And there are hundreds of thousands of dollars changing hands in these projects…
I believe that more of that income should land on the side of the designer.
Don’t you agree?
I am here to show you how…. There is more to a good remodeling job than just designing a great space…
Successful and profitable outcomes start when you step into a remodeling project as the trusted consultant, helping the client to make good decisions based on real numbers and honest design options.
The result is that you will OWN this remodel job. Think about what that can mean for your bottom line….
Unfortunately that is often not what is happening today.
Instead…
This is a lose-lose situation.
There’s a better way
I am going to show you how to use my proven system to serve your clients better, create big profits for yourself and set business-like boundaries around your time and availability.
The Real Deal
Make Big Money on Remodels
When you position yourself properly with the client and use my Exploratory Agreement system to develop your remodel job concept, finish levels and budget…
that same job will produce 2X, 3X, even 10X more money in your pocket.

The best part of using my Exploratory Agreement system to sign up remodeling clients?
You OWN the job; you are the logical “lead” on the project.
You have an agreed upon budget, you have a real scope of work.
You choose how much of the finishes and fixtures you want to sell, how involved with construction you want to be and let the contractor handle all the labor.
And you can learn how to do this, with my step-by-step, proven recipe when you join me for:

Meet Your Host
Hi, I’m Terri
I had been a successful designer for many years when the economy crashed into my world in 2010. My design studio with 10 employees was happily producing Model Homes for most of the national home builders in Southern Arizona. In just one month all my subdivisions shut down and there were ZERO contracts to go after, home building just stopped.
I had to pivot and do it quickly!
I decided that remodeling would be the way to go because if people can’t sell their houses, they would still want to change things. I already had an AZ contracting license and remodeling would potentially give me the big dollar contracts I needed to keep my studio going.
Focusing on marketing my remodeling abilities brought me potential clients and I managed to step into a new income stream. (Gratitude)
What I discovered was that remodeling was hugely creative and fun when I took the time and care to develop a true budget and scope of work
before writing the Letter of Agreement.
What I also discovered was that I actually
didn’t need the contracting license…
I discovered that my studio could be highly profitable by selling all the finishes, materials and product
and leave the labor side to the contractors.
You can do this too!
Until now, this Exploratory Agreement system has only been available to my IDBA Growth, Structure and Masters Program students…
I believe this knowledge is so valuable and empowering it needs to be shared with all designers in our industry.
The wisdom I learned from my days of wearing a hard hat and steel-toed boots is exactly what I’m sharing with you at The Real Deal so you can bypass the 10 years of struggle and start OWNING remodel jobs now.

The Real Deal is happening
Wednesday, May 19th thru Friday, May 21st. – 11:00 AM EST – 7:00 PM EST.
All sessions will be held virtually, so make sure you turn off any and all distractions, come prepared to participate in the breakouts and take tons of notes.
The evening before The Real Deal begins, we’ll have a virtual mix & mingle pre-party. You’ll have the opportunity to connect over virtual drinks and do some networking. Meet the designers from across the country who you will be spending the next 3 days with.
o get the most out of The Real Deal, attending live at the event is far more effective and valuable. However you can watch, listen and review the recordings for 14 days once the event has ended if you purchased the Enhanced Access ticket.
General access tickets do not come with access to the recordings.
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!
If you find that you are unable to attend the event, please notify us in writing before April 27th at 12 PM EST to be eligible for a complete refund. After April 27th, a credit will be applied toward any future event, program or product for up to one full year from the original event date.
Movement is important. First, because who wants to sit in your chair all day?!
But moving in different ways also allows your brain to work in different ways, and that’s when knowledge seeps in. Each day of this event you’ll get to experience special Dance Sessions to help express and bring to fruition everything you’re learning.

“I was blown away by the talent, organization and care Terri’s team took in planning and teaching our community how to be better in our practice, generate better clientele, work smarter, earn more and feel better while doing it.
I am now a proud member of the Interior Design Business Academy and am feeling like there is nothing I can not accomplish in my craft and my business.”

“I showed up at your event last year a completely different person than who I am today. I had no confidence in myself or the product I was offering my clients. I didn’t feel worthy of receiving abundance in my life… let’s be honest I didn’t even know what that term meant.
I left feeling alive with hope and energy. I hadn’t had this feeling in a long time. I am overwhelmed with joy and gratitude when I look back on where I was and where I am today. My business has grown exponentially. I have almost tripled my income and am so close to my goal that I set for myself last year!”

The Real Deal is where clarity, strategy, and mindset shifts combine to turn your passion for design into profit.
Don’t let limiting beliefs and self doubt continue to hold you back. It’s time to let them go and move into a new level of business.

Continuing to undercharge for your services, being pushed aside by contractors on remodel jobs, and feeling like you’re doing so much work with next to nothing to show for it.
As a designer, you’re the heart and soul of these jobs.
Isn’t it time you get paid like it?
You don’t have to spend years going through the struggles and stresses of trying to figure this out on your own. I’ve already done that for you. And now I’m sharing my proven step-by-step approach to help you step up and OWN remodel jobs like the design professional you truly are.
