Consulting Services for The Design Firm of the Future
According to the 2024 What Clients Think report, many clients feel that traditional agencies no longer meet their needs. Common criticisms include slow execution, high costs, overpromising, and underdelivering—all leading to a perception of poor value. As a result, many organizations are building in-house agencies or seeking alternative partnerships that can provide speed, efficiency, and measurable impact. Significant changes are occurring with clients, and it’s essential to comprehend these shifts in order to redesign your business for success. Staying relevant and profitable will be the biggest challenge for design firms in the future.

“I just wanted to say how grateful I am for the work you do Rhonda and the wisdom you’ve shared with me. As a result of your tools, we’ve increased our project win rate from 35% to 65% and increased our revenue by 500% in one year. ”
“Rhonda is a formula for success. She has been a tremendous help to my company and me as a CEO. She is professional, kind, and generous with her advice, resources, and time. I love her encouraging and positive manner the most! I wish I started working with her years ago! ”
“When we started working with Rhonda, 5 years ago, our business had reached a plateau and we felt stuck. She helped us get clarity on what made our business unique and worked with us to reposition for a new market. The results have been pretty amazing. Our company is thriving. We are doubling our revenue yearly and now have the right team in place to support our growth. What’s more, Rhonda works with positivity, kindness, and grace that is very uplifting… she’s truly a joy!”
