6. Building Features and Layout
What do you really need in your facility? Consider the cost of each feature to see what is financially feasible. What office design will best accommodate your employees, customers, and vendors? What design encourages the most efficient production? You can research office layout and design on the internet and at the library, or you can hire a professional designer.
Your business premises must be able to operate during the regular business hours without interruption. Your customers, employees, and vendors must have easy access and sufficient parking. The business premises should be thoroughly inspected so that you will not incur substantial repair expenses after you take possession.
