Does this sound familiar?

• “How long should this job take me?”

• “Where do I even start when writing a quote?”

• “What if I miss something and end up working for free?”

• “What if I scare them off by charging too much?”

• “Should I even be taking this job on, or am I out of my depth?”

If you’re nodding along, you’re not alone. Quoting is one of the hardest parts of upholstery — and it’s often the reason talented upholsterers never turn their craft into a thriving business.

That’s why I’ve created a 3-evening online classroom session: Job Costing for Your Upholstery Business (Imposter Syndrome Edition!)

Across three live sessions, we’ll tackle all

the fears and unknowns:

• How many days typical items really take (footstools, chairs, sofas)

• Where to start when building a quote — and what to always include

• How to factor in materials, overheads & your time (without underselling yourself)

• Handling surprises (springs, frames, hidden horrors) without losing profit

• Knowing when to say “yes” — and when to walk away from jobs

• What’s considered a reasonable price in today’s market

• How to price with confidence, even while you’re still training

I’ve been in business for 30 years, I’ve made every mistake, I understand your worries and insecurities. By the end of this course, you’ll have a reliable method for quoting that ensures you’re paid fairly, protects your time, and positions you as a professional — not a hobbyist.

If you’ve ever felt that sinking “impostor syndrome” when a client asks for a price, this course is your way out.
