When trying to build a company of your own, you need to think of how your establishment will look to the eyes of your potential customers. Of course a more professional and pleasing look for a building will be more effective in attracting customers compared to something that is of mediocre design.
For moving companies, the most fundamental rule to remember is the space. Your space needs to be more attractive, spacious and does not look cramp. You will need to make the impression that you have lots of space to provide your customers for. When your clients assess your building, you also need to provide great accommodation and service. However, if you have a rather small space for your office, glassed windows and less furnitures will do the trick. You might also want to decorate with plants in order to make it look fresher.
The next thing that you need to do is to provide a grand opening for your business. You may need to plan for a special day like this and organize a program. Be sure to include a tour around the facility so that your potential clients and customers will be able to take note of the key features of your building.
With the tour, it is also best that you introduce them to the compartments that you use for your self-storage so that they will be able to look at the design. The compartments should have the most essential things that your customers might need. The basic features such as an off the floor flooring so that stores things will not be placed directly on the floor, spacious and security cameras and security locks.
Your compartments should also be designed as if they are trying to provide comfort for the things that will be stored inside. For example, you can provide additional storage cabinets, or cushions for fragile items. Aside from these, state-of-the-art designs can also attract customers attention. So, if you can try to build something that is automated, it would be a plus.
Aside from your compartment designs, you should also think of how your office looks in general. Be sure to take into consideration customers with disability. Wheelchair access should be present, elevators for the blind people should also be considered, or you might want to hire someone who supervises the elevator from the inside. With these added features, you can extend your customer reach.
Remember that people will not also look into your services, but will have their first impressions from what they first see, and that is your establishment, and as a moving company, your storage compartments. First impressions always last, so as much as possible, take the opportunity to please them from the start.
