Negative billings in 31 of 34 months
Commercial billings keep falling while your overhead doesn't
The Architecture Billings Index posted 46.2 for July 2025, and commercial/industrial firms reported an ABI of 43.8 in May, a steeper decline than any other sector. Billings have been negative in 31 of the last 34 months (AIA/Deltek). For a commercial architect running schematic design, design development, and construction administration on office, retail, or mixed-use projects, that means fewer fee-earning phases while payroll, software, and marketing costs keep climbing. A website that just sits there as a digital brochure does nothing to slow the bleed, it should be working to bring in the next project inquiry while your team is heads-down in Revit.
Inquiries 53.4 vs contracts 47.9
Inquiries are up, but slow follow-up loses the project before SD begins
The project inquiries index reached 53.4 in July 2025 while the design contracts index fell to 47.9 (AIA/Deltek). Developers and commercial property owners are shopping firms, and the gap between interest and signed contracts is where projects are won or lost. When a developer submits an inquiry about an adaptive reuse or design-build opportunity and waits two days for a reply, they've already called the next firm on the list. Most small practices have no system for instant response, no lead capture, no CRM, no automated follow-up, so qualified inquiries quietly go cold.
75% of firms have fewer than 10 staff
Small firms are outmarketed by bigger practices for the same commercial work
More than 19,000 architecture firms operate in the U.S., and 75% have fewer than 10 employees (AIA 2024 Firm Survey). With commercial/industrial billings at an ABI of 43.8, the pool of office, retail, and mixed-use development work is shrinking, and small mixed-practice firms are competing against larger practices with dedicated marketing budgets. A 5-page template website with no schema markup, no service-area pages, and no consistent content can't compete for searches like 'commercial architect near me' or 'mixed-use development architect.' Local search visibility is how a small firm claims its share without hiring a marketing department.

You never write content, learn prompting, or manage servers. We run the system; you run the firm. Explore our custom website solutions or check pricing to see the full picture.
Convert more of the inquiries you're already getting
Respond to every developer inquiry in seconds, not days. Every contact form, chat, or booking on your site creates a CRM lead instantly with a branded auto-response, so when a property owner asks about space planning or a design-build RFP, they hear back before they dial the next firm. Every lead is tracked in a visual pipeline from first inquiry through proposal, so nothing falls through the cracks between project inquiries and signed design contracts.
The project inquiries index hit 53.4 in July 2025 while the design contracts index fell to 47.9 (AIA/Deltek), the firms that respond first are the ones converting interest into contracts.
