Talking to clients I am conscious that the cost of business premises is concerning many business owners at the moment. In the retail sector some businesses just can't meet their rents - hence the latest figures suggesting that 90,000 shops stood vacant across the UK in February.
Premises are one of a business’ biggest overheads and so it pays to continually review what steps you can take to reduce your premises costs.
I've just added an article with 10 tips for saving money on business premises.
Following these tips you might just be able to reduce cash flow pressures as well as create a firm footing for securing property bargains in the future.
I hope it helps.
