This recent surge in green building has created a new and robust market for design and building professionals, and those firms that understand and embrace this movement stand to profit in many ways:

• Increased revenues from both new and existing clients (who can be urged to green existing structures)


• New consultancy opportunities (LEED AP, high-efficiency energy or water systems experts, green product specialists, etc.), as green expertise is still in short supply at most professional firms


• Employee attraction and retention, as young designers are interested in green design and firms that practice those principles


• Recognition as a leader in your field


• A true point of differentiation, resulting in a distinct market advantage
