About this listen

Every designer knows the hours — the ones you can't bill for but can't afford to skip. Figuring out your pricing. Untangling your finances. Learning how to hire, how to scale, how to protect your margins without losing your mind.

That's what Unbillable Hours is about. Hosted by the team behind Indema, this show delivers sharp, no-fluff business insights built specifically for interior designers and firm owners. From strategy and operations to client management and financial literacy, each episode gives you something you can actually use — that same week.

Subscribe to Unbillable Hours Insider for bonus content, exclusive resources, and even more value — much of it completely free. This podcast is meant to chat about the good, the bad and the dirty of the interior design business, as well as help those seeking to get into the design industry and those who need help building their empire.

    EP 42: The Hourly Billing Trap
    Feb 26 2026
