Most industrial designers sell drawings and prototypes — and cap themselves at a designer's rate.
The shift is repositioning from designer to product commercialisation consultant: now you get paid for the client's win, not just the deliverable.
For every client ready to invest in design, there are a hundred more who just need someone to validate the idea and show them the path — and positioned as the consultant, you capture all of them.
Patrick breaks down how to run the whole machine solo: productised validation offers, tiered consulting, royalty and finder's-fee deals, all funded by treating marketing as an investment instead of a cost.
The result is a seven-figure consultancy run by one person — because the words you use determine what you get paid.
