    Get More People To See Your Content (Repurpose It!) with Annette Mashi | 121
    Apr 9 2026
    Host Jon Clayton interviews Annette Mashi on Architecture Business Club about repurposing existing website content—case studies, portfolios, photos, and blog posts—so more people see it across platforms and are driven back to the website. Annette explains a top-down process: start with a large piece (e.g., an energy-efficiency case study), turn it into a blog, then break it into topic-specific newsletters and short LinkedIn posts that link back to the blog. They discuss finding content ideas in everyday client conversations and frequently asked questions, using AI tools like ChatGPT as a starting point while editing for voice and avoiding generic language, and why LinkedIn builds awareness, email newsletters nurture leads over long sales cycles, and blogs provide depth and a content library. Annette emphasises client-focused benefits over “we” messaging and highlights the value of a supportive professional network.—Today’s GuestAnnette Mashi creates magic with words. She gives visibility to female architects, interior designers, and women in the construction industry. She positions them as experts, demonstrates the value they provide, and helps them stand out from their competition so they attract clients they love and win their dream projects.—Episode Highlights00:00 Introduction00:43 Introducing Annette Mashi01:13 Why Repurpose Content02:05 Multi Platform Sharing02:30 Driving Website Traffic03:14 Channels To Use03:31 Top Down Process03:57 Case Study Example04:22 Turning A Case Study Into A Blog04:45 Turning A Blog Into A Newsletter05:02 LinkedIn Snippets05:27 Main Course Analogy05:56 No Reinventing Wheel06:14 Repurpose Podcasts Too06:52 Guest Appearance Content07:09 Ask For Transcripts07:49 Finding Content Ideas08:27 Marketing Team Analogy10:48 Client Questions Content12:30 Social Proof Framing13:05 AI Repurposing Pitfalls14:21 Use AI As Tool17:19 ChatGPT Tells18:18 Content Ecosystem Package19:49 Awareness Building Content20:11 Nurturing Content20:44 Why You Need To Nurture Leads21:44 Email Newsletter Opportunity22:15 How Often To Send Your Email Newsletter24:13 Flow Analogy25:12 Results From Just Eight Blogs Per Year25:39 Building A Content Library26:42 Long Term Benefits From Content28:09 Linking Content Together29:46 Putting It Into Practice30:55 Getting Started With Content Repurposing32:11 Sharing Your Process32:31 Content Marketing Book Recommendations33:28 Benefits Vs Features34:29 A Simple Exercise: We Vs You35:26 The Resource Annette Mashi Can't Live Without37:15 Closing And Connect—Key TakeawaysYou already have more content than you thinkYou don't need to start from scratch. Look at what you've already got — a case study, a project photo, a blog post. You can take one big piece of content and break it into smaller pieces for LinkedIn, your newsletter, and your website. It's like getting more meals from one big cook-up. Stop letting good work sit there unseen.You need to share your content in more than one placePutting something on your website and hoping people will find it doesn't work. You need to share it across different places — social media, email, your blog. Each place does a different job. LinkedIn helps new people find you. Your email list keeps people warm over time. Your blog shows them how you think and what you can do. Together, they bring people closer to hiring you.You should email your list at least once a monthMost designers — around 85% — don't send regular emails. That means if you do, you're already ahead of the crowd. People often take a year or more before they're ready to hire an architect. Sending a monthly email keeps you in their minds. Even if they don't read every word, they see your name and remember you're there. That matters a lot when they're finally ready to get started.—Subscribe on YouTube (for upcoming video episodes!) 📺Send a Voicemail to the show (we listen to every message!) 📢Connect with Annette Mashi on LinkedIn 🤝Visit Annette Mashi’s Website 🖥️Curious about podcasting?

  • What is Succession Planning & Why Does It Matter with Kevin Crawford | 120

    What is Succession Planning & Why Does It Matter with Kevin Crawford | 120
    Mar 26 2026
    Jon Clayton hosts Architecture Business Club with guest Kevin Crawford, an architecture practice leader with 20+ years’ experience who implemented a succession plan at Crawford Architecture via a transition to employee ownership. They define succession planning as future-proofing the business, protecting legacy, and ensuring continuity if the owner retires, can’t work, or dies, noting many practices delay it until it becomes urgent. Kevin shares how waiting until his father was around 70 created pressure and highlights why planning matters for owners, families, staff career paths, valuation, and avoiding rushed sales to the wrong buyer. They discuss that succession planning applies to all firms, including sole practitioners, and stress the need to take time away from day-to-day work, use structured planning (including ideas from the book “Traction”), clarify roles, communicate a shared vision, and maintain discipline.Today’s GuestKevin Crawford is an architecture practice leader with over 20 years of experience running and growing a practice, before putting a succession plan in place through a transition to employee ownership. Today, he’s the founder of Designing Success and co-founder of ASC and Pilotis, where he helps architecture practice leaders design better businesses — gaining more clarity, time and freedom, while strengthening the person behind the practice.—Episode Highlights00:00 Introduction00:46 Meet Kevin Crawford01:20 Why This Topic Now01:40 Defining Succession Planning02:15 Planning For Inevitability02:49 Family Firm Backstory03:58 New Ventures Plan From Day One04:33 Ostrich To Eagle Mindset05:18 Forced Change And Complexity05:39 Most Firms Delay This06:23 Reactive Industry Trap06:52 Hamster Wheel Workaholism07:27 Two Year Transition Journey08:03 Balancing Three Stakeholders08:29 Protecting The Legacy08:48 Choosing Employee Ownership09:36 Others Still Ignore It10:18 Why Succession Matters10:42 Time With Family Motivation12:34 Shared Vision And Culture Shift13:53 Risks Of Leaving It Late15:28 Is Succession Planning Relevant To Small Firms16:33 Buying Time To Plan20:25 Consequences Of Ignoring It22:36 Collaboration Over Competition24:24 Where To Start Today24:49 Frameworks And Reflection26:21 Discipline And Weekly Structure27:41 Key Takeaways29:26 Employee Ownership Realities30:31 Must Have Business Resource30:51 Project Management Game Changer32:02 Connect With Kevin—Key TakeawaysDon't put it off — start thinking about succession planning now.It's easy to say "I'll deal with it later," but Kevin learned the hard way that waiting too long makes everything harder. His dad was 70 before they started planning, and by then it was stressful for the whole family. Even if you're not ready to act right now, you should at least start thinking about what happens to your business when you're no longer running it.You need to make time to work on your business, not just in it.Kevin used to think working longer hours was the answer. He'd start at 4am and work until midnight. But that didn't help him plan for the future — it just kept him stuck on the hamster wheel. The real change came when he stepped away from the day-to-day and gave himself proper time to think. You need to block out time in your week to focus on the bigger picture, even if it's just a couple of hours on a Friday.Succession planning matters no matter how big or small your practice is.You might think this only applies to large firms, but Kevin says it's just as important for sole practitioners. If your business depends entirely on you, what happens if you can't work? Who looks after your projects and your clients? Having a plan in place protects you, your team, and the legacy you've built — whether you're a one-person studio or a team of twenty.—Subscribe on YouTube (for upcoming video episodes!) 📺Send a Voicemail to the show (we listen to every message!) 📢Connect with Kevin Crawford on LinkedIn 🤝Curious about podcasting?

    Key Takeaways

    You can break big goals into smaller parts

    Instead of planning your whole year at once, divide it into 90-day chunks. This makes it easier to see where you're going and change direction if you need to. It's like planning a road trip in stages rather than trying to map out everything at once.

    You will make mistakes, and that's okay

    When you run a business, you'll mess things up sometimes. You might waste money or make poor choices. The important thing is to learn from what went wrong and move forward. Don't be too hard on yourself about it.

    You need to create urgency to get people to buy

    If your service is available all the time, people will think they can buy it later and they'll forget about it. You should use special launches or limited-time offers to give people a reason to act now instead of putting it off.

  • How To Avoid Structural Issues In Home Extensions with Sam Dean | 118

    How To Avoid Structural Issues In Home Extensions with Sam Dean | 118
    Feb 26 2026
    Architecture Business Club host Jon Clayton interviews structural engineer Sam Dean of Porthouse Dean about common structural design pitfalls in home extensions and how to avoid spiraling costs. They discuss ground conditions as a major uncertainty (especially clay), the influence of nearby large trees and desiccation, and the use of low-cost desktop geological reports based on British Geological Survey borehole data to flag risk. They cover ceiling downstands and why beam position is often a cost-and-aesthetics decision between homeowner, architect, and builder, with installation complexity increasing when first-floor joists run into the beam. Sam explains cantilever “rules of thumb” and how corner bifold-door cantilevers can drive up steel and foundation demands, sometimes requiring columns and large foundations due to uplift forces. They address adding an extra storey and the case for trial holes. They also highlight risks of building onto existing, undocumented steelwork from previous extensions, which can force intrusive investigation or replacement when later loft conversions are planned. Sam explains how the architectural design can affect structural costs and outlines what to expect from a good structural engineering service. They touch on AI-generated architectural information, Sam’s launch of an AI review service, and he shares the software tool his business can’t work without.Today’s GuestSam Dean. He started out as a materials scientist and structural engineer, spent a year in the nuclear industry, then teamed up with his friend Chris Porthouse to start PorthouseDean structural engineering. Sam then got hooked on building business systems and automations - to cut out the boring stuff and let his team do better work. When he’s not solving process problems – he’s cycling to work, playing and watching football, or baking crusty bread and homemade pizzas.—Episode Highlights00:00 Introduction00:39 Introducing Sam Dean01:38 Managing Risk with Groundworks03:08 The Clay Problem04:08 Trees Near Extensions: The Hidden Foundation Cost Driver04:30 When Is a Site Investigation Worth It?

Clay soil can be a big problem. If there are large trees near your building site (especially within 20 metres), they can make the situation worse. The tree roots dry out the clay, which means you might need to dig much deeper foundations. This can cost thousands extra. Even if you remove a tree, the clay takes about three years to go back to normal. You can get a cheap report to check if clay is likely on your site or dig trial holes, which can help you plan ahead.Think About Where Beams Go Before You BuildHelp your client decide if they want the steel beam to show below the ceiling or to hide it inside the ceiling. If you hide it and the floor joists run into the beam, the builder may need to cut the joists and fix them to the side of the beam. This may cost more money. You should talk about this early with your client and builder. It's a trade-off between how it looks and how much it’ll cost.Plan Cantilevers Carefully to Keep Costs DownA cantilever is when part of your building sticks out without support underneath. There's a simple rule of thumb: if you want one metre sticking out, you need two metres anchored back inside the building. If you don't follow this rule, you might need heavier, more expensive beams.

Joshua failed his final year and had to repeat it. He also failed his part three exam the first time. But these failures taught him important lessons that helped him later. When you fail, it doesn't mean you should give up. It means you're learning something that will help you in the future.Help Others Along Your JourneyWhen you're struggling with something, you can still help other people who are facing similar problems. Joshua struggled during his training, but he still helped other students with their work. By helping others, you build confidence in yourself and create a positive effect that spreads to more people. You don't need to wait until you're perfect to start helping others.Surround Yourself with the Right PeopleWhen you're going through tough times, you need people around you who can support you and remind you of your strengths.

    Key Takeaways

    Burnout is a cycle, not just tiredness

    You need to understand that burnout isn't the same as feeling stressed. Stress can actually help you get things done if you have time to rest afterwards. But burnout happens when stress goes on for too long without recovery. It keeps coming back again and again if you don't fix the real problem. Burnout means you're living by other people's rules and goals instead of your own. When this happens over and over, your body and mind get worn out.

    Spot the warning signs early

    You can notice burnout in five main areas of your life. Physical signs include feeling tired all the time, headaches, and sleep problems. Mental signs include brain fog, forgetting things, and feeling hopeless. You might also get more emotional, angry, or eat differently. At work, you lose your passion and make more mistakes. In your personal life, your relationships suffer and you feel like you're not doing well anywhere. The sooner you spot these signs, the easier it is to fix the problem.

    Quick fixes don't work - you need a proper plan

    Taking holidays, doing more exercise, or waiting for a project to finish won't solve burnout on their own. Even changing jobs won't help if you don't fix the real causes. You need a proper strategy that helps you understand yourself, create healthy boundaries, and use your real skills and strengths. Don't wait to deal with burnout - the longer you leave it, the harder it becomes to fix.

It can look at a picture and tell you what's in it, or help you create images and videos. Automation is different - it's about setting up steps that happen automatically, like "when I get an email, add it to a spreadsheet." The exciting part is when you put them together. AI can now do the thinking parts that used to need a person, which makes automation much more powerful.You can use AI for more than just writingMost people think AI is only good for writing text, but that's just the start. You can use AI to create pictures and videos from your sketches, organise your notes and research, and even make presentations faster. For example, if you draw a simple building sketch, AI can turn it into a realistic image showing what it would look like in real life. This is really helpful if you work with designs or need to show ideas to clients.AI won't replace you, but someone using AI mightYou don't need to worry about robots taking your job. But you should pay attention to other business owners who are learning to use AI tools. They can work faster, finish projects quicker, and offer better prices because AI helps them save time. The key is to start learning about these tools now, so you can use them to do the boring tasks faster and spend more time on the important work you enjoy.—Subscribe on YouTube (for upcoming video episodes!) 📺Send a Voicemail to the show (we listen to every message!) 📢Connect with Tim Lewis on LinkedIn 🤝Visit Tim Lewis's Website 🖥️Curious about podcasting?
