Our team of experts will create a one-of-a-kind, custom fee proposal template based on the specific needs of your firm and your clients.
The custom template will be delivered in either MS Word or InDesign and you’ll have fully editable rights. You may use the document on all your future fee proposals.
Building a design business can be a lonely journey… you don’t have to do it alone.
The Mastermind Meetings are a great opportunity to:
Helping you build a strong and financially sustainable design business as quickly as possible.
Once we’ve completed our 15-point check on your fee proposal we’ll confirm our findings in writing.
We’ll then issue you with our report highlighting our findings and how to fix them. Once we’ve reviewed the report with you (via zoom) we will set about creating your new custom proposal.
Our team of experts will review your current fee proposal strategy to see how it stacks up.
We’ll check it against our 15 criteria and find out where your strengths and weaknesses lie.
We’ll show you what you’re doing right, what you’re doing wrong and where you can improve your current approach.
The Live Q&A sessions are where you can ask questions, and get answers from our team of Fee Proposal experts.
The Live Q&A is conducted via Zoom Webinar, every other week, and is available to all registered Workshop members.
Each session is also recorded and made available to Workshop members.
The Coaching Calls are a great option for those Design Professionals who would like the benefit of a fee proposal expert on their team without the cost of hiring another employee.
During these weekly Coaching Calls we will check your progress, answer your questions and provide accountability – helping you to stay on track and achieve your goals.
