One way people try to beat your price down? They complain regardless of whether you’ve done a good job or not.

When I started in business, I was insecure. I thought, “If I lose this client, I might not have another one.”

So I tried to keep everyone happy, do more and charge as little as possible.

Eventually, during COVID, we had 16 people working flat out. I was paying everyone except myself.

I burned out and had a panic attack.

That forced me to rethink what a successful business means

Stop complaining and start Growing: Find life satisfaction.

When I was younger, I could work nights stacking shelves, study during the day and be happy earning some money.

But life moves on. You get older. You have a family, responsibilities and different ambitions.

Sometimes the job doesn't need to change where you supposed to.

When we stop growing but expect our circumstances to keep satisfying us, frustration starts to build.

Complain or you can ask: “Where do I need to grow next?”

Architects waste time and money on: buying tools instead of solutions.

One company hired a laser scanner to survey a building near Piccadilly Circus. They paid for the equipment, software licence and spent their own time surveying only to discover their computer couldn’t handle the data.

When they came to us, we found another problem: some scans didn’t have enough overlap to register properly.

Now the choice is to hire the equipment again and return to site or start again.

In construction, taking on a bigger project doesn’t mean doing twice the work yourself. You bring in electricians, plumbers, roofers and other specialists.

Architectural practices can think the same way.

Keep your core expertise in-house and build trusted teams around the rest.

Because if the only way your practice can grow is for by you to work twice as much, it isn’t scalable.

One of the biggest challenges architects face is the TIME TRAP.

Winning the client is only the beginning. Then come site visits, measured surveys, quotes, existing drawings and other tasks that consume hours before the design even starts.

The question is: which of these tasks actually need you?

Freeing up the right work creates more time for design, clients and growing your practice.

How do you measure roof details and other hard-to-reach areas without a drone?

We elevate our laser scanner on a specialist tripod, giving us a different perspective and allowing us to capture roof details, neighboring properties, areas behind fences and other difficult-to-access features from heights of up to 6 metres.

For many projects, it’s a simple and efficient way to capture the additional information architects need without the extra logistics involved with drone surveys.

Burnout doesn’t always come from having too much work.

It comes from doing work that doesn't produce results.

That’s something I have to manage myself. I’m naturally drawn to keep working, so training gives me a reason to step away.

Sometimes, when I get stuck mentally in the middle of the day, I’ll go for a swim, listen to music or a podcast, change my environment and move my body.

Then I come back with a clearer head and often get more done.

Taking time away from work isn’t wasted time.

Are you still doing measured surveys yourself?

Architects, take care of the vision. We handle the reality.

We survey the existing building and deliver ready-to-use 2D CAD drawings and 3D Revit models straight to your desk ready for you to start designing.

Less time measuring. Less time drafting existing conditions. More time for architecture.
Get your evenings and weekends back.
