This past week on the Entrepreneur Architect Podcast, I shared my original 2006 business plan for Fivecat Studio. Most every week, I would write my thoughts on architecture and design in “Westchester County and Beyond” I’d share updates on our current projects and information on the latest products and materials. Do you blog?

Although not technically “social media”, I have been blogging at [link] since 2006. I use facebook to post firm news and updates on current projects. I also use Twitter to distribute informative links to my followers. For me, that alone makes it worth the time required to post on a weekly basis. We need to be there.

I collect their contact information, including home, office and mobile telephone numbers, email addresses, postal address of the potential project and the year the home was built. We need to make some changes. My Sales System. We hit a wall.
