How to Build a Profitable Design Business with Patrick O'Connell 🚀

If you’re a designer, creative, or service provider tired of undercharging and overdelivering — this episode is your blueprint for building a business that actually makes bank.

I’m joined by Patrick O’Connell, founder of Profitable Designer, who’s helped over 170 creatives hit six figures and beyond.

We’re diving into mindset, marketing, and the unsexy business math most creatives tend to avoid — but need to master to grow.

✨ Inside the episode:

✅ How Patrick went from employee to multi-million-dollar design entrepreneur

✅ The real reason your offers aren’t converting (and how to fix them fast) ✅ What your clients are actually buying — and why it’s not your process ✅ Why controversy should be a core part of your marketing ✅ The difference between a designer and a business owner (and how to make the leap) ✅ The mindset traits of six and seven-figure creatives
