Turnkey Design Talk
Hosted by interior designer Adam Scougall, Turnkey Design Talk is a podcast for solo interior designers and decorators who want to run calmer, more controlled businesses — and finish projects properly.
The show focuses on what actually makes the difference in a design career:
how projects are led, how boundaries are set, how decisions are made, and how work is brought to a confident, photo-worthy close.
This isn’t about trends or overnight success.
It’s about taking responsibility for the outcome — from the first client yes through to the final reveal.
If you care about delivering beautifully finished homes, creating genuine wow moments for your clients, and building a business that works on your terms, you’re in the right place.

EP# 16 Nightmare client? How to spot and deal with them
Let me ask you a question? Have you always thought that if you secured a client who had a project in a luxury postcode, and they had chosen you as their designer-you had made it? They might have some odd demands, maybe even be a little controlling, but you’re sure you can work through it right? Well maybe you can or maybe you can’t. Let’s discuss some traits of that old chestnut. The nightmare client.
Hey guys its Adam Scougall of the So You Want To Be An Interior Designer podcast, and welcome to EPISODE 16.
This show really is for mid-career aspiring interior design or decorating solopreneurs that need support in building their own interior design business whilst working 9 to 5.
My aim is to help you balance your time and make more money whilst being able to choose the projects you want to work on rather than ones you have to take to pay your bills.-
In this episode I cover 3 traits of a potential nightmare client. You can ultimately choose how to proceed, but keep your wits about you if you witness any of the three I discuss in today's episode.
If this episode raised questions for you, or you’re feeling stuck in your solo design business, you don’t have to figure it out on your own.
I offer a 30-minute clarity session where we can talk through where you’re at, what’s getting in the way, and whether I can help.
