Patrick O’Connell – The $20K Per Month Design Business

We get designers laser-focused on the simple actions that create big reactions. You’ll find our students building powerful offers, improving their marketing/sales systems and doing real work, not making noise on social media.

Most generic courses teach a specific skill like sales or marketing without fixing the most important thing: the value of the product/service. This creates clueless designers who don’t understand why things don’t work .To succeed in design business you need to learn the “full stack” — five interconnected layers of understanding built on top of each other.

1. Entrepreneurial awareness — Value mastery, market differentiation
2. Offer building — Packaging, messaging, positioning
3. Lead generation — Free & paid traffic, websites, funnels, bookings
4. Sales mastery — Rapport, strategy, proposals, contracts
5. Business processes — Tools, systems, workflows, metrics

Become specialist design entrepreneurs

This type of designer is rare accounting for only 1% of all in the industry. They feed on creating market value, and providing clarity and simplicity only to the people they can best serve. They focus on working on their business more than in it. You wont find them on social media talking, unless they are pitching their offer to a business they can help. They are deliberate and see business clearly and always win.
