What to do when your business needs to expand but you can’t risk interruption to your business

Many business people will go through this tough decision sooner or later, maybe several times: whether to move to let a business expand or to stay put to avoid the interruption to business a move could cause which could severely affect profits and customer service and can and has killed off businesses.

The actual time spent moving is the biggest fear where a badly managed move could see a company making no money for days or weeks. When you do get to the other end there is the risk that there may be teething problems, e.g. internet that hasn’t come on, lifts that don’t work etc. Some offices may even lose customers by moving away from them, you will usually hope to pick up new clients but this can take time. A new office is a stretch financially too, you may feel that you could take on more staff and then more clients if you had more space but this is often not guaranteed and you will probably take a lot more space than you originally need to allow you to grow as long as new customers do start coming.

As for the business this is mainly down to you and your sales executives, you could do market research or you could simply get out there and sell based on capacity you don’t yet have and do it this way round finding the offices when you have the work booked up, this only works if you have the kind of business where you can book work in a month or more in advance of course.
As for the actual process of moving what you need is to think of it as a project and as with any project you need good project managers, those in your business may not have the experience though of moving so get in experts. Office movers who specialize in moving businesses between offices are whom you need; you may want to work closely with them or leave them to it to some extent: so you can carry on and not take your eye of the ball concerning your day to day business operations. Office movers should have moved many businesses before and be hugely experienced: they will know what the potential problems are that can come up and they will know everything that is involved: even things you may need to do in advance like getting phone numbers set to move on the right day and internet to come on and planning how to let customers know the new address. The office moving company can work very closely with you to plan the move in detail so that your staff will be barely involved in the move and can carry on with their jobs like normal, simply being told when to start turning up at a different address. If you are a small business a good office moving company may be able to come in on a Friday evening and have everything done by Monday morning: where they will pack and unpack everything putting it in place and ready to work with; some movers even have computer and network technicians to ensure that computer systems are put back together again in the same way. If you’re a larger business or if you are keen to aovid the risk of teething troubles at a new address it may have to be a staged approach to moving but you can make sure that staff always have somewhere to work and that phones and e-mails are always going somewhere where they will be answered.
