About this listen

How to Master the Business Side of Architecture Without Losing Your Mind

Imagine this: You’re trying to price a project, but you’re stuck second-guessing yourself because you don’t know how to balance value and profit. Or maybe you’ve spent hours wooing a potential client, only to find they’ve gone with someone else. Worse yet, you’re knee-deep in a project, only to realise your contract didn’t protect you from unexpected changes – and now you’re footing the bill.

If any of that sounds familiar, it’s not your fault. Architects are trained to design, not to run businesses, manage clients, or navigate the complex world of contracts and finances. And in today’s fast-paced world, juggling these responsibilities while actually doing the work you love can feel impossible.

It’s exhausting. You might feel like you’re constantly putting out fires – from chasing late payments to scrambling for new clients. The stress of managing your team, staying ahead of digital trends, and ensuring long-term growth can keep you awake at night.

This book is here to change that. It’s a clear, practical, and jargon-free guide tailored specifically for architects who want to thrive in business without compromising on their craft.

• Take control of your finances with simple strategies to price projects, manage cash flow, and grow profitably – no spreadsheets required.

• Win better clients and projects by mastering relationship-building and creating a magnetic brand that sets you apart.

• Protect yourself and your practice with foolproof contracts, risk management strategies, and future-proof planning.

Stop struggling and start building the thriving practice you deserve. Open the first chapter now – your future self will thank you.

• Protect yourself and your practice with foolproof contracts, risk management strategies, and future-proof planning.

Stop struggling and start building the thriving practice you deserve. Open the first chapter now – your future self will thank you.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.
