You Don’t Need a Degree. You Need a Framework..

Most women who dream of becoming interior designers hit the same walls:

- Feeling too late to start
- Working for free to “get experience”
- Drowning in inspiration but not income
-  Thinking AI or competition has already won

You’re not behind — you’re simply missing the map.

Imagine having a business that fits around your life — where you earn doing what you love, help others design homes that change their lives, and grow in the direction you choose.

That’s what this programme was built for.

From Foundation to Freedom - Everything You Need to Build a Profitable Interior Design Business 

This isn’t another surface-level course. It’s a guided business framework that takes you from design lover to paid consultant — with systems, scripts, and templates that make implementation effortless.

Module 1 — Design Isn’t Luxury, It’s Leverage

Discover how to start your business the smart way — without going back to college or working for free.

Learn the mindset and business model that makes this approach different from every traditional design course.
You’ll understand why design is leverage, how to build flexibility into your business, and how to use the 3-part model — Consultancy, Digital Products, and Media to earn from day one.
You’ll also map your first 90-day plan, integrate AI tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Canva to save time, and learn how to start with clarity instead of overwhelm.

Outcome: You’ll leave Module 1 with a clear roadmap, a lifestyle-first business plan, and the belief that you can start right now.

Module 2 — Set Up, Show Up, and Start Consulting

Turn your idea into a real business — structured, professional, and ready for clients.

You’ll set up everything you need to operate confidently:
- Choose and register your business name
- Set up professional systems for payments, email, and bookings
- Learn to use tools like Notion, Canva, and Otter AI to organise clients
- Design a lifestyle-friendly work schedule that supports your goals
- Craft your first offer — your paid design session model
- Use the Plug & Play Toolkit of scripts, prompts, and funnels to attract and book clients.

Outcome: By the end, you’ll have your first offer live, a booking link ready to share, and a structure that looks polished and professional from day one.

Module 3 — Build Your Brand and Attract Clients

Master visibility and become known for your style — without feeling like an influencer.

You’ll learn how to build a recognisable brand, create content that attracts paying clients, and use AI to cut creation time in half.
You’ll design your visual identity, define your content pillars, and follow a 30-day Instagram Plan to start showing up with purpose.
We’ll also cover confidence on camera, simple photography and video techniques, and how to use platforms like Instagram, YouTube, and LinkedIn to build your audience and authority.

Outcome: You’ll have a clear online presence that attracts ideal clients and positions you as the trusted design expert in your niche.

Module 4 — The Design Map PRO: Your Step-by-Step Client Framework

Deliver design sessions with structure, clarity, and confidence.

This is your professional process — the 5-stage Design Map used in every consultation:
Assess — analyse the space and client needs
Define — clarify goals, style, and mood
Plan — layout, budget, and realistic timeline
Develop — colour, materials, furniture, and design principles
Execute — sourcing and styling for transformation

You’ll learn how to use AI to visualise ideas live, how to apply design principles in real time, and how to make styling a powerful standalone service.
This module also reveals how design impacts health, wealth, and wellness, giving you language to explain the deeper transformation design brings to clients.

Outcome: You’ll leave with a complete client workflow you can apply in every design session — from small styling consults to full projects.

Module 5 — Scale & Diversify Your Income

Go beyond sessions — build multiple income streams that give you freedom and choice.

You’ll learn how to scale sustainably through:

- Digital Products: create ready-made, shoppable room designs and guides.

- Affiliate Marketing & Sponsorships: earn from sharing the products you love.

- Studio Work: transition into full projects when you’re ready — without burnout.

- Product Design & Collaborations: build a brand that opens doors to partnerships and edits.

You’ll also map out your next 12-month Scaling Roadmap to grow your income while protecting your lifestyle.

Outcome: You’ll have a clear path to expand your business — from 1:1 consulting to scalable products, partnerships, and brand collaborations.

Module 6 — Manage Your Business Like a Pro

Master money, metrics, and boundaries — so your business supports your life, not the other way around.

You’ll learn:
- Money Management Basics — track income, expenses, and taxes confidently.
- Analytics & Performance — identify what’s working so you can grow strategically.
- Boundaries & Time Management — create a weekly rhythm that protects your creativity and freedom.

This module gives you the habits, tools, and systems that turn your passion into a sustainable business that lasts.

Outcome: You’ll feel in control — financially, mentally, and emotionally — and ready to grow without burnout.

Module 7 — Certification & Next Steps

Graduate as a confident, professional consultant with lifelong opportunities ahead.

You’ll receive your official Certificate of Completion and become an Alumni of the Lana Mari Design Academy, complete with a professional badge to display on your site.

Outcome: You’ll finish this course as a certified consultant — ready to earn, grow, and design a life that feels like home.

Imagine Your Message in 90 Days

“I booked my first client.”
“I finally feel confident calling myself an Interior Design Consultant.”
“My home, and my life, feel completely different.”

That’s the transformation waiting for you.
