What Happens When Your Business Is Too Big For The Kitchen Table

One of the best parts of being a blogger is getting the opportunity to work with so many amazing small startups; often they approach me in their early days as they realize the value of a blog collaboration as part of their marketing campaign. Many of the companies go on to grow with great success and we often keep in touch, I’ve become friends with a fair few people that I met through blogging.

One of the biggest steps to take as a business is when you make that transition from working at your kitchen table (hey don’t knock it – I’m currently sat in the kitchen keeping an eye on the muffins in the oven while I write this) to realising that you need a much larger commercial space to run your business from.

You know the saying, ‘all the gear and no idea’ well this is massively applicable to moving into your very first warehouse; you’ve paid for this gigantic how ever many thousand square foot space yet somehow it seems like a big empty cold box that is so not what you wanted your brand spanking HQ to be feeling like. Like any space, a warehouse needs organising and the bigger the footprint the more important it is to get it right. Pallet Racking by WSSL in Harrogate have pretty much every type of warehouse storage solution you could every need. Mezzanine floors, internal and external racking – Warehouse Storage Solutions has something to suit every storage need. One of the biggest problem faced with maximizing warehouse space is that pallets are literally everywhere and it can soon become hard to sort through stock. Pallet racking systems are brilliantly simple in terms of their construction but allow you to configure your storage space with such efficiency and versatility. It doesn’t matter on what space you have or how you want to use it, with pallet racking there are a number of choices from live racking, narrow aisle, drive in and double deep pallet racking with something for everyone or should I say every pallet.

It may all seem rather alien at first but like all business progression decisions: knowledge is power when it comes to making the best choices for you and your company.
