The Designer's Edge

 

A CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT PROGRAM FOR INTERIOR DESIGNERS

 
The only program that shows interior designers how to confidently manage construction and get paid what it's worth.

TEACH ME HOW TO DO THIS RIGHT

What's The Designer's Edge About? 


Honestly? It's about making more money and getting more respect for the hardest work you do.

Because right now, you're probably:

  • Undercharging (or not charging at all) for construction management
  • Spending hours figuring out what you should have learned years ago
  • Dealing with contractors who don't take you seriously
  • Losing sleep over budget overruns, timeline disasters, and client complaints
  • Wondering if you're even cut out for this part of the job

Here's the truth: You ARE cut out for it. You just need the right training.

The Designer's Edge gives you everything design school didn't:

→ The systems that turn chaos into profit
→ The language that earns contractor respect
→ The pricing models that protect your margins
→ The confidence to lead projects without second guessing every decision

I've managed construction for over 30 years, and I teach the exact processes I use to keep my projects profitable and drama free. This is your shortcut to the expertise that took me decades to develop.

Enrollment Is on Pause

We’re currently welcoming a new group of designers inside The Designer’s Edge and helping them take big steps forward in their businesses.

Enrollment will open again soon - and we’d love to see your name next.

Join the waitlist below to be the first to hear when doors reopen - and get a few helpful (and unexpected) resources from me while you wait.

You’ll also get my newsletter - always helpful, never spammy. You can unsubscribe anytime.

"The best money I've ever spent on my continuing education as a designer"

 

It has given me the guidance that I've been looking for, new insights into construction management best practices, and a stronger belief in myself when making the tough calls. Finally, Renee is not just talking the talk but walking the walk; if you have any questions or comments she is responsive and supportive.

"It's great to have a seasoned professional share her experience"

 

This program is full of actionable material especially for someone who hasn't jumped into a construction project yet, but wants to. It is robust enough too for those of us who are already involved with construction but need some help with structuring and efficiently running our side of a project.

"It has helped me charge more."

"The course has absolutely leveled up my game. It has helped me charge more - charge what I'm worth! And helped me create better partnerships. I am now viewed as an expert from my vendors and contractors. I highly recommend the course.”

 

-MEREDITH HUCK
 

"You cannot compare the course to the podcast."

“I listened to your whole podcast, from start to finish and they were all fantastic, there is no doubt about that. But you cannot compare the course to the podcast. It’s not comparing apples to apples. If you only rely on the podcast - you’re limiting yourself and the growth of your business if you don’t actually invest in the course and rely just on the podcast alone. ”

 

-TRACY LAQUA
 

"Worth every penny."

“If you have specific questions about problems, projects, pricing, clients, issues... Renée is just a wealth of from her life experience being in design. You can't go wrong.”

 

-KATIE RAINEY
 

"Helped me get the job."

“Your scope of work/ hours estimate sheet helped me get the job. I was the 4th designer the client meant with and the most expensive. But the scope of work lesson helped the client feel okay with the big number."

 

-STEPHANIE DOBSON
 

"Renée's course put me on the fast track."

“Before I met Renée I was just getting by... I lacked the confidence and the skillset and knew there was so much more I could learn and bring to the table as a value to my clients and contractors. Renée's course really put me on the fast-track. I was able to eliminate so many mistakes just by implementing her teachings right away.”

This Is Where Everything Starts to Change

 

You’ve been doing your best to figure it out - project by project, mistake by mistake.
Maybe it’s worked so far. But it’s not sustainable. And it’s not scalable.

The Designer's Edge is the turning point.

It’s where you stop solving problems mid-project and start preventing them altogether.
It’s where you stop undervaluing your role and start getting paid for what you actually bring to the table.
It’s where construction management goes from something you tolerate to something you own.

If you’re ready to lead with clarity, grow with purpose, and finally run projects on your terms - this is your moment.

Grow a More Profitable, Sustainable Design Business

 

The Designer's Edge teaches you to turn construction projects into high-impact, high-return work.

With the right systems and support, you’ll stop losing hours, start charging what your time is really worth, and finally run projects that protect your profit and your peace of mind.

This program becomes part of how you work. You'll use it to price jobs, lead projects, and grow your business.
