You might think your billing model or project volume is fine—until the numbers tell a different story.

From cash flow crunches to billing mistakes, this episode uncovers where architecture firms really bleed money—and how to stop it.

Caitlynn and Seanna break down the most common financial blind spots for architecture firm owners. Whether it’s flat fees that don’t cover scope creep, receivables dragging out for 60+ days, or failing to track true delivery costs, these mistakes silently erode margins.

They also dive into entity structure, tax implications, and benchmarks every architecture firm should monitor to protect profit.

BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU’LL DISCOVER:
✅ The hidden costs of flat fee and hourly billing (and how value-based pricing changes the game)
✅ Why receivables averaging 61 days can cripple cash flow—even if revenue looks strong
✅ The key KPIs (labor multiplier, wages-to-revenue, profit margin) every architecture firm owner must track

Check out an amazing book by Michael E. Gerber.:
The E-Myth Revisited: Why Most Small Businesses Don't Work and What to Do About It
