When I initially started my own business I only had a few select employees and I would never have guessed we would be the size we are today.

When a business is flourishes it expands and our one room little office just wasnt suitable anymore,A quick blog about my move to a Glasgow Articles so we decided to move to a larger more spacious commercial property which would for fill all of our needs as our current office is more of a hindrance than a help.

Finding that perfect office which was suitable for your business but yet big enough for your staff proved to be a difficult job but we have been able to over come this issue. But thankfully we had help from the team.

Location,Location,Location is always important you will have heard it may times. Our company needed to be based within the city centre for a variety of reasons such as transport links and other amenities such a post offices and banks. It will be easier for your employees to travel into work as well as potential clients and associates. Of course, every business wants a nice area within a building that isn't dilapidated and within a safe environment.

I always made sure that my staff were involved in the process of moving to our new office. We would have meetings about potential locations and they would provide me with guidance on where to look for our new office. Its always best to take into account the requirements of your employees such as is there ramp access in the new building as well as safe security systems. I also gave them as much notice as you can about the move leaving them to prepare and get ready without rushing and panicking.

My biggest tip for anyone moving office would be to make sure you set out a relocation strategy. Make sure you have a knowledgeable removal crew ready, you might also need storage too, as well as seeking advice from your internet and broadband supplier. The sooner everything is up and running like clockwork the quicker your staff can settle in and start working, a pause in business will result in a loss of money.

Always seek professional advice when leasing office space or buildings. Lawyers can assist with the procedure and proved to be very successful with our own move. However proved to be the biggest help, finding numerous ideal locations and even affordable Glasgow Office Space even helped with the moving process!

Once you have found the perfect office location which is suitable for the scale of your company, as well as all of your staff and technology, you can begin to then start the moving process which can be stressful but well worth it in the end seeing your business flourish! I used a checklist which really prevented me from forgetting anything too vital. If you have a happy workforce too they are more willing to help with the move!

Now that we are all assembled and working smoothly within our new office, we have become very settled and content. A superior office improves staff moral and creates a happy work environment.
