Why Amanda Teal completely changed the way she charged

Om avsnittet

For years, Menlo Park, California–based interior designer Amanda Teal did what many designers do—she charged an hourly rate for her services, plus a markup for the products she procured. Eventually, a growing firm and a loss of passion for her day-to-day role in it led Teal to reevaluate her whole business and outline new parameters for the kind of work the firm would take on. It’s a story about growing a firm on your own terms, and how a fresh start can be the best thing for a business.
