Hello!
I am currently going to school majoring in Architectural Engineering, Architecture, and Business Administration; and one day I have dreams of being CEO of my own firm. I am taking a class this semester called "Employee to Entrepreneur," and for it we are to design our own business from the ground up. With the world becoming more green, I was wondering if anyone could give me advice as to if being a "Green Architect" would be a good idea for a business model and if you think it would continue to see increased business.
Also, if anyone had advice on better and more details of "starting" this firm and getting my name out there in the market.
I have attached the first version of my Powerpoint Presentation that I would eventually like to present to the class, if there are things you think I should add I would very much appreciate any suggestions! On slide 11, I have a first-year cash flow statement. I have projected that the first month would only see 10 hours of business and it increases at a rate of ten additional hours per month. Do you feel that this is in any way accurate or could a potential first project of a small green home take many more hours? Accurate pay rate?
As you can see, I need a little help with a few of the nitty-gritty details, and I figured AIA would have some great individuals that would be able to help me!
I appreciate any and all help,
Thank you!
