One of the biggest mistakes architects and designers make is starting work without the right paperwork in place. Passion takes over, ideas start flowing, sketches hit the table… but when it’s time to collect fees, clients suddenly “forget” agreements, delay payments, or dispute the scope. The truth is, getting paid begins long before the design does.

In this episode of The SILL TALKS Podcast, we break down the essential pre-design documents every architect needs to protect their work and guarantee payment. We’ll cover:

  • Why verbal agreements and handshakes are not enough.
  • The specific documents that set expectations from day one.
  • How these documents protect you legally and financially.
  • Practical tips for presenting them to clients without scaring them off.
  • Real scenarios where the right paperwork saved us from losses.

If you’ve ever been underpaid, delayed, or ghosted after delivering value, this episode will give you the tools to secure your fees with confidence.

✨ Subscribe, share, and let’s make “getting paid” the standard, not the struggle.
