In the tradition of Seth Godin’s Purple Cow , Dan Heath, co-author of Made to Stick , has posted How to Stand Out in a Crowded Marketplace (video) to the AmEx OPEN Forum. Are you doing something new that no one has seen before? Are you doing one thing ferociously? According to Heath, we need to be doing one or the other. If not, we’ll be lost in the vast sea of the marketplace.

When performing our Design Development phase with clients, we typically assist them in selecting all their finishes, plumbing fixtures and lighting. This process is completed most efficiently when we discover and learn, through questionnaires and images, what our clients like and what they dislike. Then, with thorough knowledge of their taste, we offer a limited number of items from which they select.

Peter Gerr (a good friend from A-school) is an info-data guru. His latest blog post is about infographics and the art of communicating information. We can learn much from looking at other industries and how they are communicating ideas and information. After all, that’s what we do. The “ink on paper” architectural drawing has been our standard method of visual communication for centuries.

Forbes has published their list of the Top 10 Richest Billionaires. To me, the most interesting fact is that most are self-made. Few have inherited their wealth from generations before. Each discovered an essential need and developed a business to supply the demand for that need… mostly from scratch. Buildings are an essential need. The modern human race would not survive without them.

From ResidentialArchitect.com: Marketing is a chore for most residential architects, who would rather draw than dream up ways to attract new business. It’s easier to rely on word-of-mouth advertising and the casual connections formed at kids’ soccer games, dinner parties, and board meetings. Conventional wisdom says that personal networking is, in fact, the most powerful marketing tool there is.

Here’s an excellent post from one of my favorite blogs : A buddy of ours recently asked for our advice on how to go out on your own as an architect. It’s an interesting question primarily because of the timing and the current economy (or lack thereof). But despite the slow industry, we think its the right time to establish your own firm. While the market will remain slow for a while (probably over another year), when it does pickup, the architects left standing will be flush with work.

As a dedicated fan of the NASCAR (National Association of Stock Car Racing) Sprint Cup Series, I continuously follow the success and failures of the top teams. Also being a business fan, NASCAR is my “perfect storm” Racing is big business. It takes millions of dollars to campaign a race team for a complete season and there’s lots to learn about buisness from the winning teams.
Expert insights. Personalized for you.
