Success by Design with Archis Architects
In this episode of ThriveCAST, host Shannon Singler sits down with Jeremy Ortiz, founder and CEO of Archis Architects, a firm that goes beyond designing buildings - it architects success. Since 1999, Jeremy has been reshaping skylines, challenging industry norms, and proving that innovative design is more than just aesthetics; it’s a strategic advantage.
Jeremy shares how he launched his architecture firm during an economic downturn and successfully scaled it across multiple states, offering insights every architect, entrepreneur, and AEC professional needs to hear.
In this episode, we cover:
The business of blueprints – Why every architect should have a business mindset (or risk getting blindsided by taxes, cash flow, and the reality of running a firm).
Scaling smart – The blueprint for expanding your architecture firm across multiple locations without losing your sanity or bottom line.
Design that sells – Proven client communication strategies to showcase the value of great architecture (especially when clients only see the price tag).
If you're an architect, business owner, or anyone who refuses to live in a soulless, cookie-cutter building, this episode is packed with insights to help you think bigger, design smarter, and build bolder.
