With Grace and Gold

10/29/2026

Here’s something we’ve learned over nearly 13 years of building With Grace and Gold: Sometimes, growing your business isn’t about finding more customers. It’s about finding more ways to serve the people who already need what you do.

Think about a business owner who needs a beautiful, strategic website. When she’s first starting out, a website template might be exactly what she needs. A few years later, she might be ready for a more personalized, streamlined design experience. Eventually, she might be ready to invest in a completely custom brand and website.

Same business owner, same underlying need, but different stages, budgets, and solutions.

This is one of the ways we’ve thoughtfully grown With Grace and Gold. We’ve created offers for different customers, different stages of business, and different needs. Today, we have more than 10 revenue streams, each serving its own purpose within our business.

And while a template shop can absolutely be one of those opportunities, there are so many other possibilities worth exploring, too.

That’s why we created Designed to Earn. Inside our brand-new course, we’re sharing a behind-the-scenes look at our own revenue portfolio, exploring the many ways designers can earn beyond custom client projects, and helping you develop a thoughtful plan for your next offer.

Whether you’re exploring your very first additional revenue stream or wondering what to build next, we’d love to help you discover what’s possible.

It’s here! 🎉 Introducing Designed to Earn. 🥹

When we started With Grace and Gold nearly 13 years ago, we couldn’t have imagined all the different ways our little design business would eventually grow.

At first, nearly everything we earned came from the custom design projects we booked. And while we loved that work, we began wondering what it might look like to create a business with more than one way to earn.

Over the years, we’ve thoughtfully developed more than 10 revenue streams. Today, the ones outside our custom design services regularly bring in five figures each month.

And while those offers certainly require ongoing work and attention, they’ve given us more ways to serve our audience, share our expertise, and grow a business that isn’t entirely dependent on our next client booking.

We’ve learned so much along the way. What worked, what didn’t, what we’d do differently, and what we’d recommend to a fellow designer who wants to begin.

And today, we’re sharing it all inside our brand-new course, Designed to Earn.

Inside, we’ll take you behind the scenes of our own revenue portfolio, introduce you to different opportunities for designers, and help you identify, develop, and launch your next revenue stream.

You’ll also receive our companion workbook, access to a private designer community, and monthly educational content with Kelly.

Our hope is that this course helps you see just how much possibility exists within the business you’ve already built.

Designed to Earn is officially open for enrollment! Comment EARN and we’ll send you everything you need to know!

When we founded With Grace and Gold in 2014, nearly everything our business earned came from the custom design projects we booked. We loved serving our clients, and we still do. But over time, we began recognizing opportunities to share our expertise in new ways, serve more people, and grow beyond our client calendar. ✨

Today, our business regularly earns five figures each month from revenue streams outside of our custom design services. Discover how you can build a business beyond client work, too:

One of the things we’re most grateful for after nearly 13 years of With Grace and Gold is that our business looks so different from the one we started in 2014.

Back then, nearly all of our revenue came from custom design projects. And while we still absolutely love serving our design clients, we’ve learned how meaningful it can be to create other ways for our business to earn, too.

Today, we have more than 10 revenue streams, and those outside our custom services regularly generate five figures in monthly revenue.

Some are more hands-on than others. Some allow us to earn while we’re away from our desks. And together, they’ve helped us serve more people, navigate different seasons of business, and continue growing as a team of just two.

We share this not because we think every designer should build 10 revenue streams (we actually don’t!), but because we wish we’d understood sooner just how many possibilities can exist within a design business.

Your expertise, your processes, your creativity, and the customers you’ve already served may hold opportunities you haven’t even considered yet.

And that’s exactly why we created Designed to Earn.

It’s our new course where we’re opening up our revenue portfolio and walking you through how to thoughtfully choose, develop, and launch additional ways to earn.

Enrollment opens October 27, and our waitlist will receive first access to special introductory pricing.

When you run a design business, growth often feels closely connected to your client calendar. And when things slow down, it’s natural to wonder what you could be doing differently to bring in your next project.

But after 13 years, we’ve learned that booking more clients isn’t the only way to grow a creative business. There are opportunities beyond custom design services, and exploring these can change what’s possible for your business:
