EP 056 | Pricing Strategies for Interior Designers at High Point Market with Kimberley Seldon

Are you charging enough—and more importantly, are you actually billing for all of your time?

In this episode, Kimberley Seldon shares highlights from a lively roundtable discussion at High Point Market, where more than 100 interior designers gathered to discuss pricing, profitability, and client communication. The conversation explores some of the most common challenges designers face when it comes to charging appropriately and confidently presenting high-value recommendations.

For interior designers looking to increase profitability and strengthen their sales process, this episode delivers practical, no-nonsense advice.

In this episode, we learn:
• Why having an hourly rate means nothing if you don’t consistently bill for your time
• How presenting premium options allows clients to make informed decisions about their investment
• Why clients can’t say yes to products they never get the opportunity to see
• How raising your rates can be simpler than most designers imagine
• Why confidence is essential when discussing pricing and value
• How profitability starts with charging appropriately and honoring your own policies 

Thanks to our round table guests!
