Creating an Inviting Office!
Whether you meet with your clients or customers every day in your office or not, there are a number of easy things you can do to make the meeting more enjoyable for them. When a client sits in an uncomfortable and unpleasant environment in your office, they will likely not return. Create a warm and welcoming environment in your office with Outdoor Matting to make sure your clients are more likely to return.
The best chair or chairs for comfort
Have you tried sitting in the guest chair? Is it comfortable? Chairs for guests are often chosen by office staff according to how they look or how much they cost. But what does it actually feel like to sit in one? It’s a good idea to provide comfortable seating for guests.
Organize Your Office
Take the time to clean up your office Piles of papers or boxes are not pleasing to the eye, and they make you look less efficient. Give the impression that you are organized, not a hoarder.
Place a mat at the entrance
It is important to define your office space and make a statement at the same time. For instance, with a Logo Mat, you could display your company logo, a pithy quote, or something as simple as “Welcome.” You can still make your space feel like your own even if your desk is just one in a sea of desks in a large open space.
Sweets and swag
Research shows that giving a little candy to customers makes them spend more, and we know from the psychology of influence that giving gifts, no matter how small, makes others feel obligated to thank you.
Provide clients with some candy and swag such as pens, keychains, luggage tags, and notepads branded with your logo and contact information. These items cost very little and are highly appreciated by clients.
Art
Make your office more welcoming by hanging a few posters shrink-wrapped or mounted on boards. While you can prove your credentials with your illustrious degrees and photos with important people, art makes you appear human. A couple of posters shrink-wrapped or mounted on boards are not very expensive and will open up new conversations in the office. You might like some Old Masters paintings if that’s what appeals to you. If you enjoy cooking (or eating), posters of tomato and pepper or citrus fruit varieties would be interesting.
You don’t have to spend a lot of money to make your office more inviting. Even if you’re natural to minimalist and like your office to look like a museum, that doesn’t inspire deal-making. Make your clients and customers love coming to your office with Outdoor Mats, and your bottom line will thank you.
