Your
new venture is nearly ready to become a reality. Blood, sweat, tears and a lot of money have
gone into getting your business off the ground.
All the plans are in place to open your retail outlet, service or
restaurant.
Before
you take the plunge here are some important points to consider when choosing a
space to set up your business.
Location. Is your business near main public transport
routes? Is there parking? Is there enough foot traffic to support your business
and bring in customers?
Layout
of your store. Your shop fitouts is key
to the success of your business. Is the
entrance welcoming and does it reflect your brand or business? Is the lighting creating the right atmosphere
and ambience for your place of business?
Can
customers buy? Are your products on
display and easy to reach, touch and feel?
Will your customers be comfortable in your store?
Safety
First. Use a reputable shop or commercial fit out specialist to ensure that your retail space is safe for your customers
and your staff. The last thing you need
is some bad press or an injury in your first year.
Your
business needs to reflect your brand and your own dream. Choosing the right shop fit out from the
beginning will set you off on the right track and give you the best possible
start at a successful business.
