Most sole proprietors and small firms I know, struggle to meet the minimum requirements of operation. These are services available to your client, but are NOT included in your basic architectural services. Through the years we have learned that not every project and not every client is a good fit for these services though.

We practice under legal contracts requiring us to meet very high standards and provide services putting us at risk. It is painful though to look at the books each year and see the cost of insurance at the top of the list. If your firm is practicing without insurance, you should reconsider your decision.

There is no doubt that our clients love them, but that’s not the only reason why we build them. Clients respond to these models in a very different way than when we just show them 3-dimensional computer images of their projects. Your articles on selecting a contractor/builder and contracts helped with our decisions.

When we present our initial schematic designs to our client, we are selling. When I present a product or service to a prospective client, I am presenting them with something that will improve their lives. I had plenty of opportunity and met with potential clients about twice a week. Qualify the Client. Thanks HGTV!)

The clients who had come from referrals from other architects and contractors were also higher revenue producers and had lower acquisitions costs than clients I had developed from cold leads. I make an effort to consistently book two business development meetings with referral partners per week.

The other fee-basis type projects are invoiced on a percentage of work completed, or the dollar value of a contract amount. Develop a project fee budget for EVERY project BEFORE quoting a fee to a client. In fact, the only type of project that has billable hours are those with an hourly fee-basis. It’s a one-to-one ratio.

I have had very limited exposure to the large firms, only work for 1 in my career and it was only for a year – I’m probably not the authority to explain why working at a large firm could be the best decision you’ve ever made in your life. This will continue from the next conceptual stages and beyond.
