“Most freelance designers struggle to hit €10k/month.

The main reason?

A trap 90% of freelancers never escape:

Billing their time instead of building a system.

This is what we used to deal with when starting out:

→ Endless feedback rounds
→ A 2-week project drags into 8
→ We couldn't take on new clients because we were still drowning in the last one

When we were working like this the ceiling was never our rate.
It was ALWAYS our own capacity.

And this capacity got eaten alive by starting from scratch.
Every. Single. Time. 😣

We knew we needed to change something.

So in 2025 we finally built our own system that compounds:

A website design process where quality keeps going up and effort goes down.

Currently we charge €12k for a 2-week homepage sprint.
Clients can see exactly what they're buying.
Timelines and outcomes are fixed.

And now we're opening a cohort to teach that EXACT process to you.

- Limited to 20 spots
- €590 beta price (instead of 990€)
- Starting March 24th
