1218: Overheard: Mae Reedy, Abigail Kahan & Jennifer Arteaga: What Growing Pains Look Like beyond $5 Million
Today with Mae Reedy, Abigail Kahan & Jennifer Arteaga:
Three interior designers. Three multi-million dollar firms. Jennifer Arteaga, Mae Reedy, and Abigail Kahan all built their businesses in under 10 years, and not one of them stopped hitting growing pains once the revenue got big.
In this Overheard episode, LuAnn sits down with all three to talk about what actually gets hard once you're running a firm beyond the $5 million mark. Fee structures and profit margins that look nothing alike but all work. Mae's year of building her first org chart, which she compares to giving birth to a whole different company. The client boundary conversation you have to be willing to have once you're serving executive-level clients. And the shift from doing the work yourself to running the room, which changes everything about how you lead.
If you're earlier in your business and think it gets easier once you hit a number, this conversation will change your mind. It gets harder. Just differently.
