The Challenge
Why Architects & Home Plans businesses struggle online
The Problem
- ✗ Pre-designed plans sit in a portfolio earning nothing after the initial build
- ✗ Selling plans online requires a website, payment processing, and digital delivery
- ✗ Competing with plan marketplaces that take 40–60% of revenue
- ✗ No easy way to bundle plans with furnishings, materials, or interior packages
- ✗ Managing customer inquiries, licensing, and revisions across multiple buyers
- ✗ Marketing and SEO expertise required to drive traffic to a standalone site
- ✗ Protecting intellectual property while making plans discoverable
