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

And it's all taught by someone who's actually done this work—not someone theorizing from the sidelines. Renée has managed construction for 30+ years and built the exact processes that keep her projects profitable and drama-free.

This is your shortcut to the expertise that took her decades to develop.

You know how to design. And maybe you’ve even handled a few construction projects.

But deep down, you're still asking: Am I charging enough? Did I catch everything in the scope of work? Is this really my role—or the contractor's? And why do I feel like I'm working harder than everyone else on this project?

Even seasoned designers admit — construction can feel like the wild west sometimes.

The good news? You don’t need to keep figuring it out alone.

Inside The Designer's Edge™, you’ll gain the structure, strategies, and guidance to manage construction with confidence — so you can protect your time, elevate your role, and grow your profits with every new project.

Imagine What This Could Look Like in Your Business...

Instead of: Undercharging for construction management (or not charging at all)
You're: Confidently quoting flat fees that actually reflect the value you bring

Instead of: Dreading contractor meetings where you feel out of your depth
You're: Walking in as an equal partner who speaks their language

Instead of: Losing sleep over whether you caught everything in the plans
You're: Following a proven checklist that catches issues before they become expensive problems

Instead of: Firefighting your way through every project
You're: Leading with systems that keep projects on track and profitable

That's what's possible when you stop figuring it out alone.

That’s what The Designer's Edge™ is here to help you build.

"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.

-BRITTA BUTLER

"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.

-ELLEN FOLEY BROCCOLO

Imagine walking onto every job site with complete clarity and calm.

Where contractors respect your authority, clients trust your process, and your designs come to life exactly as you intended—on time, on budget, and more profitable than ever.

The Designer's Edge™ gives you the tools to run construction projects profitably, build stronger client relationships, and grow a trusted network of industry partners who value what you bring to the table.

Inside The Designer's Edge™, you won’t just learn how to manage a job site—you’ll learn how to lead it.

We make it happen inside The Designer's Edge™—through step by step training, real world tools, and ongoing support that ensures you actually implement what you learn.

Here's What Changes When You Start Leading Projects Differently

Flat fees that reflect your time, expertise, and real value

Projects that run more smoothly—because you’re driving the process

Contractors who trust your input (and refer you again and again)

Clients who see you as the expert—and stay with you for life

A business model that’s more profitable, more sustainable, and more respected

And more...

Construction management isn’t just an add on — it’s the key to long-term growth, deeper client trust, and consistent income.

And The Designer's Edge™ was built to help you get there.

HERE’S WHAT YOU’LL LEARN INSIDE THE COURSE

01

Stepping Into the Lead

Redefine Your Role and Take Control Early

"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... Renee 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 HOBSON

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

“Before I met Renee 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. Renee's course really put me on the fast-track. I was able to eliminate so many mistakes just by implementing her teachings right away.”

-VIRGINIA DESROCHES

Renée Biery is a luxury interior designer, podcast host, and construction management mentor with over 30 years of hands on experience managing complex renovations and new builds.

Trained at the New York School of Interior Design and a veteran of AD Top 100 firms, she’s managed everything from complex renovations to new builds—and knows exactly what it takes to lead projects with clarity, authority, and profit.

Today, Renée helps fellow designers do the same. Through her signature course and now The Designer's Edge™ program, she teaches the systems, strategies, and real world insights that interior designers need to thrive on job sites and in business.

Her practical, no-fluff approach has been featured in publications like The Washington Post and The Miami Herald, and on top industry podcasts including A Well-Designed Business with LuAnn Nigara—alongside many others.

If you're ready to stop figuring it out alone and start leading with clarity and confidence, this is your moment. Let Renée show you how.

LET'S DO THIS

"I do not have the resources to shadow another designer or learn on the job - this course is replacing that for me!"

'Thank you for creating a great course and for being a resource for me! My goals were to learn more about how to manage a remodel project from start to finish. I feel that this course gave me more than just a list of what to do. Renee gave real examples and actually taught me how to do each step. For example, instead of just saying review floor plans she had actual modules walking through how she does it!

-MELISSA MANNING

"I am more confident!"

I purchased the course lookning for confidence, what to ask and what to do on the jobsite - the things that were not taught in school. Renée emphasizes and reminds us we are a part of a team. Respecting all the trades and valuing everyone, especially yourself and where we fit in the equation as designers. This is an attitude of humility that allows everyone on the team to feel comfortable and share what is needed to move toward the common goal, a delighted client. Just from my first project, I feel more confident in handling the rest.

"Renée’s course is a no-brainer."

Renee’s course is a no-brainer for anyone new to the construction side of design. It’s also a great reinforcement of knowledge for everybody who’s been doing renovations for years, yet may be questioning their own authority &/or process. I’ve already referred a few industry friends to the program, so if that doesn’t say I believe in Renee’s content, I don’t know what does!

-ALI REUTER

"This course has opened my eyes to an entire opportunity for income I was not capitalizing on."

I have family in the construction industry, so I have been on jobsites since I was a kid and have always been interested in construction. But interest doesn’t translate to the skills and ability to manage in an efficient and professional way.

With so many of my current projects entailing kitchen renovations and refreshes, I was seeing the need for support in how to work as a team with my contractors versus micromanaging the project.

-DUSTI JONES

This Is Where Everything Starts to Change

YES! I'M READY TO LEAD WITH CONFIDENCE

What Designers Are Saying

"This insight has been invaluable in helping me price my projects confidently"

You’re just amazing and I get so much out of calls with you - you’re very giving and easy to talk with - you’re like another designer friend who has a lot of experience who is willing to share all of it with us so that we don’t make the same mistakes you made.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge and empowering designers like me to grow in this field. Your course has made a significant impact on my approach to projects, and I am truly grateful!

-KATIE RAINEY

"I quickly gained my return on investment within months."

Renée’s course was exactly what I needed. I implemented her lessons & strategies & quickly found myself not only elevating the client experience but getting positive feedback from Contractors & Architects who were quickly referring me to their clients. They expressed how they appreciated the organization, communication & value I brought and expressed how they love having our firm as an additional support to theirs.

You'll either be managing projects with confidence, charging premium fees, and finally enjoying the construction side of your business...

Or you'll still be googling at midnight, undercharging, and hoping the contractor doesn't ask you a question you can't answer.

The only difference? The decision you make right now.

The training is here. The support is ready. The transformation is waiting.
