How to Battle Office Space Shortage? The financial crisis is having a curious effect on the way the world runs business. As top-heavy organizational structures are biting the dust due to operational delays, high costs and disappointing sales figures, small business are finding their feet. In fact, many bankers and executives who have lost their jobs are setting up small boutiques to provide cost-effective services. The trend is growing so fast that there is a term for it "The Little Man's Economy". The fallout of this kind of change is being felt in various arenas. One of them is a growing demand for office space. According to real estate executives, the amount of available office space is becoming severely restricted in a number of cities all over the world, particularly in developed countries. So, if your children want to sell lemonade in a busy street in one of the cities, they could very well find the space for it, but if you wanted to rent an office space in one of the buildings on that very street, you have a challenge on your hands. Does that mean that you take your business to the streets?

Here are some steps to help you determine all the essential elements of the ideal office space for your business. First, make a checklist of all your needs.What exactly do you need?

Instead, make it realistic and financially viable. Space consideration is the first criterion.You would need different kinds of spaces for different uses. For instance, a private office needs to be roomy but a workstation can be small. Take into account different areas like reception areas, file areas and conference rooms. Location is another important consideration.Business owners have to walk a tight rope when it comes to choosing between an up market office space and the money it costs to rent such a place. Costs vary widely depending on the location. Addresses in a metropolitan area can really cost you a sack of money. Even so, choosing a good location is vital to your business. Clients have certain expectations and your business has to score high in meeting these expectations as well as in being accessible to clients, customers and your workforce. Before you make a final decision, do not forget to factor in your start up costs. Renting a room in a building is not enough. You also need to furnish it tastefully and equip it with all the essential equipment. Maintenance, telephone costs and internet charges also have to be added.
