Find the Best Location for Your Business

Find the Best Location for Your Business

How to Find the Best Location for Your Business :
When starting a business, it is very important to plan in advance and to seek the best location for it. Do not just plunge into the business and rent or buy the first location that you might think is good for you. It might prove to be the other way round. So take it step by step and do some research.


If you plan on opening a business in a different country, ask yourself some very important questions: What do you want to offer? Is that what you are offering something new, something unique? Does your product fit the living style of the population of the country? Do you need to adapt your product and marketing strategies? Is the work force there well-prepared for what you are going to open? Is it enough? Is it cheap? And after you have answered these questions, with some help from professionals, then you can pick a country for your business.

But countries are large and your business is small. Or it may be. So, let's see what are the tips for choosing a location no matter in which country, for a small business. It is very important to know how to attract consumers, but it is even more important to know where you can find them. So, one issue to be taken into consideration when searching for a location, is demographics. Researching the demographics of a certain area will give you a deep insight into what kind of place is good for your business. Consider the location from these points of view: institutions around (hospitals, schools, offices, etc.) traffic - can people go there both by car and on foot? is there a highway or just a road?; competition - too many competitors that offer the same services might not be quite good for you.

However, looking for competitors in the same area could also turn into an advantage. Take into consideration that you will benefit your competitor's efforts in attracting consumers. They have already researched the demographics, they have already used advertising to attract consumers. So you might just as well benefit from all these and cut some costs. However, be true to you and your competitors and if you get along well you can send each other customers and benefit from a variety of consumers.

If you still think you can't chose a location by yourself, is not a shame to appeal to professionals. On the contrary. Talking to a lawyer will help you with legal issues, will make sure you are going to benefit from the best lease contracts and might already know how to answer your most important questions.

Luxury $35 Million Glass Pavillion

Well-known Los Angeles designer, builder and Realtor – Steve Hermann of Steve Hermann Design – has listed what must be his biggest masterpiece to date: The Glass Pavilion, a 15,000 sq ft home set on 3.5 acres. When he builds in the Hollywood Hills or Beverly Hills, Mr. Herman says he is usually restricted to a small lot. This lot measures about three-and-a-half acres and gave him the space he needed to create a home featuring walls of glass.

Private and exclusive atop a rolling green lawn, the house appears to float as if weightless upon arrival up the driveway. The  architecture is stunning, taking top notes from upper echelon predecessors such as Mies van der Rohe’s Barcelona Pavilion and Phillip Johnson’s Glass House and expounding upon this architectural heritage to create a new classic.

The five bedroom, six bath Glass Pavilion includes a magnificent interior gallery space with walnut lined walls for showcasing   prized collections, currently occupied by the owner’s thirty two vintage cars.

Every detail of the home is world class from the Varena, Poliform and Antonio Lupi kitchen and bath fixtures to the Star Fire glass, used by high-end jewelers for impermeable display cases.  This is a dream home for someone who wants to make a grand statement in the modernist oeuvre while enjoying the sensation of being perpetually surrounded by the beautiful outdoors.

2011 Chevrolet Volt

Lyle Dennis. Bill Nye. Jim Woolsey. Brian Wynne. What do these people have in common, besides being featured at one time or another on AutoblogGreen? They are all members of the new Chevrolet Volt Customer Advisory Board that General Motors announced today (disclosure: AutoblogGreen columnist Chelsea Sexton is also on the panel).

So, what will the 15 people who make up the board actually do? Basically, they're getting a Volt before you do and will tell GM what's working and what isn't. More specifically, they will be the first people who get to, "experience the Volt every day under real-world conditions during a three-month vehicle and charging evaluation program starting in late October."

The 15 (see all the names after the jump, and note the number of electric vehicle enthusiasts included) volunteered for the position and Chevy picked people who knew the most about electric vehicles and also happen to live in one of the initial markets where the Volt will be available. Besides getting a three-month test vehicle, board members will get a free 240-volt charging station, "for the duration of the vehicle evaluation program." Sexton is excited about the group, and said in a statement that:
