HOW IT WORKS
Get confident about hiring: Leave with fees that work, for your firm, right now.
Learn from our mistakes, not yours: Get real answers to your hiring Qs that are proven to work.
· Twenty minutes: Laura and Melissa work the three numbers on a real hire, live.
· Then the room. Bring the hire you've been putting off and your figures, and we'll run them.
· You leave with a real answer, not notes.
Leave with the 3 numbers behind every great hire.
N°01
What you can afford. Understanding your margins tells you a hire is sustainable.
N°02
What you should pay. Competitive salaries attract top talent without hurting your margins.
N°03
What to charge. Structure your hourly fees to cover salaries and protect profits.
Affordability isn't a gut feeling. It's real numbers we'll help you calculate.

WHO THIS IS FOR
This works whether you're bringing on your first hire or your fifth. It's for you if:
- You have more work than you can handle, and you're the bottleneck when it comes to taking on more projects.
- You're building a team for the first time and you're unsure of who to hire first.
- You've been in business for 3 years or more and you haven't raised your fees.
- You want the exact role, the real salary number, and a plan for this quarter, not a hiring philosophy.
- You'd rather spend 45 minutes than another quarter guessing.
You want the numbers, not a hiring philosophy. It's a real firm. Run it like one.


Profitable by design, not by accident.
Laura and Melissa run Laura U Design Collective, a multi-million dollar residential firm, and they teach the way they actually run it. The systems, the numbers, and the hires that got them here.
