When you’re running a business, it’s easy to focus on day-to-day problems and forget the bigger picture. However, successful businesses invest time to create and manage budgets, prepare and review business plans and regularly monitor finance and performance. 

Structured planning can make all the difference to the growth of your business. It will enable you to concentrate your resources on improving profits, reducing costs and increasing returns on investment.

Renting a Serviced Office at Hyde Park House can benefit your business in the following ways: 

1. Day-to-day problems which are difficult to budget for, such as security, premises management, dealing with utility companies and staffing issues are all taken care of by the Business Centre Team. 
2. Serviced office rental includes a licence fee with options that can cover items such as office rent, utilities, service charge, car-parking, virtual reception and secretarial services, furniture and meeting room hire.  All this means that you know exactly how much your business running costs are going to be; unforeseen costs and overspending can prove fatal to any business, especially in the current economic climate.

Many small businesses have one overall operating budget which sets out how much money is needed to run the business over the coming period – usually a year.  The service fees at Hyde Park House on office rental contracts are for up to 18 months, ensuring you can forward plan.

When marketing a specific brand or company, one of the most important things you have to have is the right image. It is no different for your business; you want to project your business in a way that is appealing to others: And they will remember you by.

Images create an instant impression and can manipulate the viewer into thinking in a certain way about your business and can even influence them to buy things from you. The image your business has is the key factor in how it is perceived by your potential customers. It will happen whether you like it or not, so getting it right first time is crucial; otherwise your business could be tarnished with a brush that you may not have intended.

Many of the Tenants at Hyde Park House use images of the office building on their websites and in their literature in order to promote their company as a large organisation, and thus enabling them to compete in the market place with large national companies.

Our various sized meeting rooms are available to rent by the hour, half day or full day, and can accommodate one to one private meetings, larger board meetings or workshops and seminars. With options for audio visual presentation and catering, the emphasis is on creating a professional image for your business.

Of course, whilst the instant impression of your business will be based upon the images and design you use, long term, successful business relationships are influenced by the beliefs, thoughts, opinions, what they hear and what they actually see as well as the experience they have dealing with you as a company and your customer service.

There are a number of common mistakes made by businesses when they are selecting new office space for lease. From new start up ventures through to multi-national corporations; selecting the right offices to rent is an essential element in the running of your business.

Finding the right office or business premises is almost as important as developing the right business opportunity. If you have spent endless hours developing business plans, developing marketing strategies and sourcing funding, make sure you also dedicate quality time to finding the right home for your business; don’t put it to the bottom of your to-do list.

Some of the most common pitfalls met by businesses looking to secure premises include:

• Office Space doesn’t match your Business Image.
  Don’t underestimate the value of appearances. How your office looks can have a huge impact on business and investor relations so it is crucial that the premises you choose match with the image you want for your business.
  What image do you want for your company? A corporate solicitors firm operating from above a hairdressers’ might not give the best first impression. All the office space to rent at Hyde Park House offers a prestige address and a professional first impression for all types of business whether you are building contractor, sales team or architects practice.
• Not choosing Flexible Office Space to fit Future Plans.
  You may find the premises you choose are ideal for your business needs now, but what about in five years time? If you have signed a long term lease then you may get stuck with your office space when it is no longer appropriate for your needs.
  One of the best ways to avoid this trap is to opt for serviced office rental as available at Hyde Park House; this type of office space is becoming increasingly popular with all businesses – large or small. Serviced office space is let on a flexible agreement, so you are not tied into a long term agreement and you can change your office space as your business needs dictate, whether it be up-sizing or down-sizing.  Hyde Park House takes a very flexible approach to office rental to ensure it constantly meet the needs of its tenants.
• Choosing Cheap Office Rental as a Compromise.
  You may find offices to let in rural or harder to reach places offer a lower rent than those within easy reach of amenities and transport links: But beware – this may be a false economy when you consider how far you have to travel to a post office, local shop or even the nearest bus stop. Think of your visitors; will they be able to find you? Offices to let at Hyde Park House offer ‘out of town prices’ with convenient access: It is located only a short drive from Glossop, Ashton-under-Lyne, Oldham, Stockport and Manchester and has excellent links to the M60, M56 and M62 networks.
• Inappropriate Office Space Format or Layout.
  Never underestimate how important the right layout and atmosphere within your office space are: The wrong layout can be disastrous. If you want interaction and communication between staff and departments, go for an open plan office space, but this may not be conducive for business if it requires privacy, such as law.
  Hyde Park House has its own in-house maintenance team and can ‘build’ an office space to suit your needs; this might include building a small meeting room or private office within your main open plan office suite.
• Not Budgeting for Hidden Office Costs.
  This is one of the largest mistakes made by new businesses every year; just at the time when over spending can prove fatal to the business. In addition to the budget for office rental, many businesses fail to budget for a service charge, heating, lighting, furniture, insurance, etc.
  This is why Serviced Office Space like that available at Hyde Park House is becoming so popular, there are no ‘hidden’ costs; they are all included in the monthly rent you pay for your office space. Don’t worry about over spending, choose Hyde Park House Serviced Offices and they’ll take care of everything for you.
