Starting from Scratch : Becoming an Architect Entrepreneur

[@ModernMountainLiving]

KNOW, LIKE, TRUST is taped to the wall at my desk at home(Thanks to You). As Winter sets in on my own home remodel, two reimagined homes, one New build permitted and a red iron shop, stress is closing in as half of my projects are 16 Hours apart. I recently read the wealthy spend their money for more time and the poor waste their time to make money(Should have listened to the Eagles more). My realization is I enjoy the process of getting lost in the micro details and that requires time. Follow your passion to happiness I guess. My videos stopped so I wouldn't be political. Go Build It Better.

[@AtelierArts]

Thank you for being a KZbinr that does Architecture! I am taking prep classes for Architecture and interior architecture and you have NO IDEA how grateful I am to have found and followed you're channel for the past 4 months! Personally, thank you for being so inspiring! 📒🖊💗😊

Hi Eric, I am working on a project, and will love to have ur opinion on it. I can send you little bit about it by email. Thank u

[@designworkset]

This video makes me stronger as a 29 yo with a lot of doubt about my future, thank u

[@davidlandry8621]

Wow... your life is similar to mine... I have the same business as yours. I'm a sole entrepreneur. My architectural firm is going on it's 10th year and the struggle is daily but it's all worth it. I'm north of Montreal and I specialise in residentiel homes and multi-dwelling. And after 10 years, I don't have any marketing going on, only referral. Last year and this year, during the pandemic, was my best years financially, by far. I knew at that moment that I was doing something good and I continue building on it. Congratulation on your business. I know how hard it is daily to joggle with everything when your alone. Trial and error. We learn as we go. Keep up the good work.

[@30by40]

Great hearing from you, David and congratulations on all your success!

[@kemaruproduction]

It's all about the power of social media. Your business would be much more solidified if you did the same KZbin marketing of 30×40 studio by content creation.

[@BrandanTheBroker]

"I'm a nobody" Dude, 900k subscribers say otherwise. This video was very informative and as a real estate agent that wants to transition over to the building side I appreciate your openness and honesty. Thank you for not sugarcoating this.

This is extremely fresh and so authentic. Thank you for sharing. I now remember why I followed you in the first place, you weren’t the typical architect promoting the same inundated working processes and systems in the architecture and design world.

"FAILURE IS THE FASTEST WAY TO LEARN" Eric you nailed it. Analytically circling the peripherals of architecture for freedom, purpose, and inspiration. Your contributions to this industry for both to designers and non-designer is certainly appreciated and respected by me!

this just shows that people have so much untapped potential to create and be of service to others. and it doesn't take thousands of people to buy your stuff. you just need to find the discipline and motivation to do it, which is made much easier when you build it around the stuff you care about. thanks for sharing!

[@Microxz141]

I'm a programmer, but it's never my passion, I'm just good with computer, but working in the industry kills creativity and overwork my mental. my real passion is design interior and architect. I don't have a degree in it, just a degree in I.T, watching your episode inspire me to get into architecture, not just interior design. last few weeks I've been reading books about architecture and design interior, and want to really get into it. thank you for creating these videos. I will try my best for the challenge to come.

As an architecture student who has anxiety and fears about my life after graduating this was exactly what I needed

[@joeldalisay3716]

Very inspiring sir! Joel DALISAY from Philippines! 53 years and still inspiring to be an architect!

[@richardsprow3418]

Great video and 100% on point. I’ve been an architect for 50 years and these are the skills and thought process anyone needs. The point is to promote and market the skills you have and focus on the right clients. It doesn’t need to be $2 million beach houses, it could be commercial or educational or health care facilities, which all need architectural skills and experience. With a business-like approach you can build a practice around medical offices or retail spaces or commercial development, architecture can be more than houses if you have other interests.

[@davidpachecogarcia]

“Don’t ask for permission” is def advice worth taking as a creative. Taking Nike’s slogan of “Just do it” is what I always tell people.

[@Moeman626]

You've honestly helped me so much through getting my Bachelor's in Architecture. I'm at a point right now that I can't land any jobs or internships but your videos are such a breath of fresh air from the cynical "you will fail" instructors and architects I've met in my journey thus far. You're the best!!

You are a legend, not a nobody! Your channel has helped me become better after finishing Architecture but decided to go back to being a builder. And I now work on Architcts houses.

[@micaheckenfels533]

That was a great video with so many genuine gems! I personally own and operate a custom woodworking business with 8 employees. I started this business at the end of 2007, right before the economy took a nose dive. This taught me to get out there and hustle. Now, 16 years later, I am starting to focus on the business of operating my business. I really appreciate what you said, "When a client comes to your business, they have to see their project in your portfolio." There is so much truth to this. Thank you for providing the content that you do. Your videos offer so much value!

[@ShantanuKumar]

Such an insightful video, learned a lot from it. Thank you ✨

[@ziasmailbox]

Eric Eric Eric... It's your humbleness that lets you say , " you're a nobody" . You have been an inspiration sir. Your video is something that not many architects have done. There aren't KZbin channels addressing architects the way you do. Keep inspiring us in your unique way. Best wishes Zia

Tony Robbins says, “Change happens when the pain of staying the same is greater than the pain of change.” It took me a while for the balance to flip.

Scared as hell but I’ll figure it out now because I have to. Thanks for the nudge. Wish me luck!

Leave the rest of the week to gear up and bring in some work. Have a solid symbiotic media idea as well to enjoy working up. If I can survive, spend time with my kids and clutch of guitars I’ll call it a success! Now to see what I can learn from your course. Of course! Never too old to learn!

So brave to start out on your own at 40 with a family to support. Very inspiring.

[@gregramerphotography]

I can say, without a doubt, that you are one of my heroes. Your attention to detail and desire to help others has inspired me as I am been wanting to do the same in my area of expertise - photography. However, I have struggled to ship anything because 'everything' I have been seeing on how to grow your audience and influence online, etc tells me to be something I am not. If I can be so bold as to say that I feel at home watching your videos. THIS is more of how I am and want to share with the world. I am different than you and many other creators, no doubt. But you have given me permission to move forward and create value for others in my own way. Thank you.

I got amazing news a few days ago that I had been admitted into the college that I have been wanting to go to and that I have been accepted in the architecture program. I'll be starting college next year as I am only a senior in high school, but this is a huge step for me to become an architect, my dream job that I have wanted for so long and I plan on rewatching your videos to get into the mindset of an architect.

[@thenullco]

This is awesome, and all so relatable. I went independent last year after 15 years in regular, full-time work. Nothing architectural-I'm a content director-but there are many similarities here. I work on retainers with 4-5 clients and do ad-hoc work for 5 or 6 more. Keeps me on my toes! Thx for the upload.

Great video. I can certainly relate to the topics in your video. I too left my full time job in search of being on my own. The job I had consumed all of my time with little or no time for family. The business was something that I enjoyed and have put off because of working full time. Once I had the business working and learning from trial and error. The business looked promising with potential growth. And then the Pandemic hit and everything just fell apart and eventually had to shot down and close the business. It was very hard to let go of everything and just waited and waited hoping for things to improve. My work room is just a reminder of what was and now remains closed until further notice. I enjoyed watching your video and look forward to seeing more. Thanks for sharing.

[@resilientfarmsanddesignstu1702]

Eric, thanks for your honesty and thanks for sharing. As an independent consultant myself, I could not agree more strongly with everything that you have said in this video!
