From a manicure to a photo studio:there are different options for a home business. Are you planning to start a home business, or have you been doing this for a while? Then it is smart to also think about the right furnishing. In this article we share our tips.
Good impression at the front door
Your customers are likely to come in through the front door if you run a home business. It is smart to be able to leave a neat impression right away. So make sure it looks tidy:keep your door and entrance clean. Make an impression with a logo mat in front of your door:it certainly stands out! A doormat with a logo also ensures recognition, so that your customers know that they have come to the right place. You can choose an outer mat with a logo, or an inner mat with a logo. Decide what you like best! Dirty feet are also a thing of the past – of course another reason to choose a good doormat.
Separate space in your home as business space
If you have enough space for it, you would do well to designate a separate room in your house as business space. Think of a separate room, which is easily accessible via the hall in your house. If you don't have a separate room available, you can think of a shielded corner in your living room, for example. In any case, you want to keep work and private life separate as much as possible, especially if there are even more people living in your house!
Correct layout at the business premises
Make sure that you comfortably furnish the business space at home. That starts with the basics, for example by taking on the painting and other maintenance jobs. Ask a handyman for this to handle it professionally. Also, choose suitable furniture, such as a good desk to work on. It is best to opt for quality products that will last for a while. Of course you only benefit from that.
Atmospheric decoration of the room
It depends a bit on which industry you work in, but in general the rule applies that you can make something atmospheric from your business space at home. The decoration doesn't have to be completely sterile and cold - it fits better with a commercial space in a home to show a little more personality and atmosphere. Provide a cozy color of paint on the wall. Place some plants in the room. Decorate the wall with a poster or painting. In this way you make the space a pleasant place to stay, both for yourself and for the people from your network who come by.
