What this means in plain English

Interior design income splits between retainer clients — who provide steady monthly cash flow — and project fees, which are bigger but lumpy. The ratio between them determines how stressful your cash flow is month to month.

🎯

What you should do next

  • Retainer clients are worth 3× a project client because you don't have to re-sell them every time — keep them happy first.
  • If your margin is under 35%, raise your project minimum or cut one expense category before taking on more volume.
  • Build a "pipeline" view: when you close a project this month, what's lined up for next month? Empty pipeline = revenue cliff.
  • Package your most common project type into a fixed-fee offer — it makes selling easier and margins more predictable.

Design a Business That Pays as Well as It Looks

Pro tracks project pipelines, client retainer renewals, and builds a revenue forecast so you never hit a slow-month surprise.

How To Use
Know your real numbers — optimize every client project
🚀 Getting Started
1
Enter Client Volume
Your average clients per day and working days per month. This drives all revenue calculations.
2
Set Revenue & Collections
Average revenue per client project and your collections rate. The gap between billed and collected is where money hides.
3
See Your Real Profit
The dashboard shows true profit per client after overhead, cancellations, and acquisition costs. Red = money you're losing.
4
Find Your Levers
Adjust sliders to see what happens if you reduce no-shows by 3%, boost average ticket value, or increase your client volume.
📊 Terms Made Simple
Project Revenue: Income from one-time project work. Multiply your average project value by the number you complete each month.
Retainer Revenue: Predictable monthly income from ongoing clients who pay a fixed fee. The backbone of a stable freelance business.
Profit Margin: The percentage of revenue you keep after all expenses. Professional services should target 40-60% margins.
Monthly Overhead: Fixed costs like office space, insurance, and utilities that you pay regardless of how many projects you complete.
