What You’ll Master in 30 Days

From Day 1 you’ll begin installing the skills and systems that move a firm from simply busy to truly influential

Imagine your practice ninety days from today—higher fees, an energized team, and every project leaving a stronger mark on your community. The five levers below create the bridge to that future, each introduced in the workshop and reinforced during four weeks of Impact Sessions.

  1. Impact Vision Story – articulate a narrative that unites team, clients, and community around a shared purpose.

  2. Premium Positioning – define your niche and fee strategy so the right clients seek you—and pay for your expertise.

  3. Owner’s Scoreboard – track the five metrics exceptional firms review weekly to spot momentum or stall points instantly.

  4. Scalable Systems – install repeatable operations and marketing workflows that free you to lead the work you love.

  5. 90-Day Action Map – build and refine a quarter-long plan during four cohort sessions, then put it into motion the very next day.

Learn from Mark R. LePage, AIA

Guidance from the architect who turned one thriving studio into two global platforms—and now helps others do the same

After scaling his boutique architecture firm into a thriving, high-profit practice, Mark expanded his mission and shifted his focus to helping other architects achieve the same success. In 2012, he founded EntreArchitect, a membership network where hundreds of firm owners learn and thrive together, and in 2020, Gābl Media, a global AEC media network dedicated to helping architects share their best stories. Building and running these ventures has cemented one clear lesson: profit powers stronger firms, stronger firms develop better architects, and better architects deliver greater impact on the world.

Throughout the 30-day Iconic Firm Accelerator, Mark is with you every step, leading the in-person workshop, hosting each weekly cohort call, and personally reviewing your 90-Day Action Map. With just twelve seats, you’ll receive focused, practical feedback on your firm’s most significant opportunities, leaving the program with real momentum, proven systems, and a mentor committed to expanding both your revenue and your reach.

Everything Included

One enrollment unlocks 30 days of tools, coaching, and powerful peer support

Enrollment unlocks far more than a seat at the workshop—it brings you into a 30-day Impact Accelerator designed to turn fresh insight into measurable gains. From your first coffee on workshop morning to the final Impact Momentum Call four weeks later, every resource, touch-point, and layer of coaching is in place so you can concentrate on learning, implementing, and elevating your firm’s impact.

Your enrollment includes:

  1. One-Day Intensive Workshop – live strategy building and Impact Spotlight masterminding, setting the foundation for your 90-day plan.

  2. 30-Day Impact Peer Group – private Slack plus three weekly online Impact Sessions for accountability, resource-sharing, and real-time coaching.

  3. Day-30 Impact Momentum Call – reconvene to lock in wins, fine-tune next-quarter priorities, and sustain progress.

  4. Iconic Firm Impact Toolkit – Vision Story template, Owner’s Scoreboard, Org-Chart 2.0 canvas, SOP checklist, and 90-Day Planner.

  5. All-Day Hospitality – continental breakfast, catered lunch, and continuous refreshment breaks to keep you energized and focused.

  6. Hosted Private Dinner – an evening of refined local cuisine designed to deepen relationships and extend the day’s conversations.

  7. Founding-Cohort Alumni Status – lifetime preferred pricing and early access to future Iconic Firm programs.

(Click each session below for more detail.)

Owner Mindset

Identify the mental shifts that distinguish an architect-in-charge from a true firm owner—time allocation, risk posture, and the Profit → Impact cascade. Benchmark yourself against five owner archetypes, then choose one belief to upgrade before lunch.

Vision & Positioning

Use the Vision Story worksheet to turn mission into a narrative that energises staff and commands premium fees. Map three client personas, refine your niche statement, and draft a positioning line you can publish tomorrow.

Metrics That Matter

Build an Owner’s Scoreboard with five numbers—revenue/FTE, utilisation, average fee, pipeline velocity, cash buffer—so you always know where to steer. Leave with a plug-and-play sheet and KPI dashboard.

Impact Spotlight I

Three owners present a growth barrier; peers and Mark offer rapid solutions on fee strategy, staffing, or ideal-client filtering.

Systems for Scale

Sketch your Org-Chart 2.0 and complete a 15-minute SOP Quick-Start. Walk out with one documented process and a template for the next ten.

Impact Spotlight II

Peer focus shifts to operational constraints—workflow bottlenecks, delegation gaps, tech choices. Leave with at least one tactic you can deploy within a week.

90-Day Iconic Action Map

Set a single Impact Metric and break it into 90-, 30-, and 7-day targets. Pair with a cohort partner and confirm your first next-day action before the session ends.

Hosted Dinner

A relaxed private meal designed for deeper conversation, strategic partnerships, and idea-sharing after an intensive day.

Why Your $1,200 Pays for Itself—Fast

  • $5K–$10K of coaching, bundled in – the live workshop, three Impact Sessions, and Day-30 Momentum Call deliver the same guidance a private consultant would charge five figures for.

  • One extra project = 10× tuition – apply the positioning tactics, land a single additional job, and you’ll recoup your investment—maybe even before the 30-day program ends.

  • Systems that keep compounding – the Vision Story template, Owner’s Scoreboard, and 90-Day Action Map continue driving growth quarter after quarter.

  • Micro-cohort focus – with only 12 seats, your firm’s challenges get real airtime and tailored solutions, not generic advice.

Impact Guarantee

Participate fully. If, by dinner, you’re not certain the plan you created can return at least 10× your tuition in added profit and positive impact, simply hand in your workbook and we’ll refund you on the spot—no questions asked.

This isn’t a fee; it’s an investment in your talent, your team, and the communities your work will serve.
