Turn Your Creative Talent Into a Thriving, Predictable Business You Love

Right now, you’re working hard — but it feels like you’re on a hamster wheel. One month, you’re booked solid. The next, you’re scrambling for work. You want to do great creative work for clients you love without living in constant fear of slow months.
I’ll show you how to find better clients, raise your rates, and build income you can count on — so you can finally have the freedom and confidence you dreamed of when you went out on your own.

Does this sound like your business?

  • You’re creative. You’re talented. But if you’re honest, your design business often feels more like a stressful scramble than a source of freedom.
  • You’re hustling nonstop, chasing new clients just to keep the lights on.
  • You feel stuck undercharging for your work, even though you know you bring real value.
  • There’s never enough time—you’re juggling admin, deadlines, and endless revisions.
  • Cash flow is unpredictable, and the “feast or famine” cycle never seems to end.
  • You worry that saying “yes” to every project (even the low-paying ones) is burning you out.
  • You know you’re capable of more, but you’re too busy in the weeds to actually grow.
  • If you’re tired of feeling like a hired hand—constantly reacting instead of building something lasting—you’re in the right place.
  • It’s time to step out of survival mode and into your next chapter as a confident, well-paid business owner.

If this is you, it’s not because you’re not talented. It’s because nobody ever showed you how to build a profitable business model that actually supports your life.

Now imagine your this business like this instead…

You wake up on Monday with a sense of calm—excited to start the week, not dreading your inbox or your to-do list.

Your calendar has just the right amount of projects: a couple of high-value client calls, some focused creative time, and an hour set aside to work on your business, not just in it.

Instead of cold-pitching or chasing payments, your inbox is filled with inquiries from ideal clients—people who already understand your value and are eager to book you.

You check your client dashboard and see every project is running smoothly, your recurring revenue streams are steady, and your systems are working quietly in the background.

You’re not putting out fires or grinding through endless revisions. Instead, you’ve got the freedom to spend time with family, take a long walk, or just enjoy a slow coffee before diving into creative work you actually love.

No more late nights, weekends lost to “urgent” client requests, or the anxiety of wondering where your next paycheck will come from.

Just clarity, confidence, and the space to create your best work—on your own terms.

This isn’t a dream.

It’s what happens when you have the right strategy, support, and systems in place. This is the reality my clients experience when they upgrade their design business with proven systems, premium offers, and a community that actually gets it.

Let’s build your version of success—together.

Your profitable design business is right around the corner.

Here’s how you can crack the code for a design business model that will change your life!

 

Step 1: Get Clear on Your Value

We’ll identify your most profitable services, your ideal clients, and how to position yourself so they say “yes” without haggling.

Step 2: Create Predictable Revenue

Add recurring income streams so your business has stability — and your life has breathing room.

Step 3: Scale With Confidence

Build systems, marketing, and client relationships that allow your business to grow without burning you out.

Meet Your Guide

Hi, I’m Mat Casner—Your Design Business Coach

I know what it’s like to feel stuck.

When I started my freelance design business in 2006, I had four little kids, a stay-at-home spouse, and no guaranteed paycheck.

I made every mistake — undercharging, chasing low-quality clients, and riding the feast-or-famine rollercoaster.

But over time, I learned how to build a predictable, scalable, and freedom-giving business. Today, I run a thriving design company, have recurring income that covers my bills, and coach other designers to do the same.

You don’t have to figure it out the hard way.

Others have done it — you can too.

I am very thankful to Mat for his continued support and incredible patience as I navigate this world of entrepreneurial adventure! I believe getting great business advice and instruction from someone who has already trail-blazed the path of freelance is vital. You can try it alone and learn everything the hard way, or you can have the help of others who've already done it to guide you. I've chosen the latter and I hope you do too!
