In this episode, Sam DeBiasi, CPA and founder of ArchiCPA, dives into why financial clarity is essential for small architecture firms. Drawing on his background in tax and ERP consulting for large corporations, Sam shares how he transitioned to working exclusively with architects and what makes their financial needs unique. He explains the most common financial blind spots firms face and how a proactive, technology-driven approach can help architects avoid them.
Sam also breaks down why architects need to think like business owners—tracking key metrics, setting up the right systems, and building sustainable growth strategies. With a focus on long-term success, he outlines how ArchiCPA supports firms with everything from cash flow forecasting to tax strategy and profitability planning. His approach combines deep industry knowledge with practical tools to help architects focus more on design and less on spreadsheets.
Whether you're a solo practitioner or managing a growing firm, this episode offers actionable tips to elevate your financial game and lead with clarity.
