The first impressions that a client gets as they walk into an office is of the utmost importance. It will dictate their confidence level in the company's ability to follow through on any business commitments that they may undertake. A well decorated office works similar to a good suit and a decent hair cut; emanating professionalism. It is also this philosophy that applies to the office environment.
Even if a company employs well dressed professional looking employees, if their office and its furniture looks tattered, the clients will definitely take note of this and it may lower their confidences in that particular business's ability to provide the service required and to the highest level.
To boast a sense of professionalism it is fundamental that a business take pride in their working environment’s public appearance. This will definitely increase the consumer confidence in their business and also promote a greater sense of professionalism among the workers; and potentially increase office productivity. This also shows a sense of prosperity to both the clients and workers, which translates into "success". The common theme that those who want to be successful want to be around those who are successful then applies, and well presented businesses can take advantage of this prestige.
An office makeover or gradually upgrading is a great start to achieving a higher level of presentation:
-To start with an office needs to have a professional organised look, so choosing some aesthetically pleasing storage space to organise any potential clutter and any files that shouldn't be in open view.
-Desks and workstations represent not only the business, but the person working there. It can become an extension of oneself in the workplace; therefore it should follow the theme of the business (traditional, modern or contemporary, perhaps even funky!) yet also be able to accommodate the working needs of the individual - giving space and organisation.
-Office desk chairs for the worker are key, not only for health and safety but for the productivity of the employee. By providing them with the correct posture and ergonomic setting, there should be the elimination of any discomfort caused from sitting for extended periods of time.
-The proper accessories to compliment a worker and their workstation can improve efficiency while adding a nice visual effect, while promoting organisation for the workers and increasing their productivity. Such things could be company branded / coloured stationery or hardware.
The reception area of an office is the real first impression, because this is where the customer patiently waits to be received by the company, looking around their surroundings and making their first judgements’. Waiting in an aesthetically pleasing area with comfortable new chairs (not just spare computer chairs that were at hand), coffee table and perhaps a magazine rack will most likely transform the client into a positive mind set and more receptive to communication.
The old expression that success breeds success holds true even today; so a company should radiate and advertise their success by investing in their business and updating their office with new furniture representing their success - who wouldn’t want to do business with a successful company?
