More Profitable Than Ever
Two architects talk candidly about how they turned their business around even before the recession.

I find the below quote very interesting:
“ We had a full-time renderer. Now we are getting renderings from China. We had a full-time person working with the city planning department. We had a full-time IT person. We are hiring consultants to do this work now, and getting better service,” says Meltzer. The firm does have some workers who are supplied by a temp agency. After paying the Internal Revenue Service a penalty, Carpenter is very strict about making sure that these workers comply with the IRS’s regulations about independent contractors.”
Does this mean that rendering departments are the first to go?
