Set Your Small Business Hours with a Small Warehouse
Starting your own business is a lot of hard work. But you knew that going into it. One of the hardest surprises that comes with running that business is finding out how difficult it is to run from a house. Home is full of constant distractions, potential liabilities, and gray zones between personal and business tasks. But a small warehouse can help. Here’s how:
Change your location to focus on working during work hours.
When you work from home, it gives a flexible schedule. As long as you don’t have a scheduled appointment or a deadline, you can always take half an hour to run an errand or handle something going on in your house. The problem with that is there’s always another errand or a small crisis. Those interruptions add up, and that can be demoralizing when a new business already requires more hours of work than a regular job.
But changing locations can help. If you go to the warehouse to organize packages or get work done, there’s nothing to do there but work. Drawing that sharp dividing line during at least part of your work schedules makes it easier to keep deadlines and stay focused on your work without interruptions.
More than that, a warehouse creates the right mindset. Working in a smaller home office with your inventory in the garage or along the far wall of your office can be confining and distracting. It even might make you doubt whether you’re running a real business. A separate warehouse and workspace can be energizing, and it helps boost a professional mindset when you’re feeling a bit demoralized.
Any small business owner will tell you that their work schedule can get a bit wild during the busy season or when they have personal events in their lives. But those same business owners will tell you that a set routine, with a definite schedule and a work-only workplace, helps you stay on top of things. Go to Warehouses Plus to find the right space.
