Flexible Business Space Creates Success

Jun. 1st 2009

Within a year of setting up business, Kent Space in Medway has achieved 75% capacity of its fully serviced offices and 50% capacity of its self storage centre.
This is quite an achievement for any new company and especially in today’s economic climate.

“The key to success has been to develop a very personalised service for office accommodation and storage. When an individual or company look for office space they generally know what they are looking for and it’s the extra services which stand out to provide the support that creates business success”, says Suzanne Knowles, Manager of Kent Space.

Having the self storage centre next to the offices is a unique offering for business to store stock and operate their complete business from one site.  This with the added flexibility to increase or decrease their space requirements to suit seasonal demands or general business changes, creates one of the key ingredients for success.

Businesses store their stock in clean, safe and bright self storage units with the added benefit of having a fork lift driver to assist with pallet deliveries and an on-site shop for purchasing any boxes and general packaging materials as needed. The storage units vary in size from 25 to 200 square feet with the option to increase or decrease at one week’s notice. There is a reception area to meet clients, so reps and clients can be professionally greeted as they come on site and this sets the tone for first impressions.

“If a company needs to see us at 8pm to discuss their office accommodation or self storage needs, we will be here to greet them and fit in with their requirements. If they need a meeting room for a long day or just a few hours, we will accommodate. If they need an assistant or secretary for a short time, stationery and files, photocopying and binding reports, refreshments or catering; all of this is arranged to ensure whilst a company is running its business everything is smoothly managed for their daily needs. As a result our clients get a very flexible and personalised service, and this has resulted in our offices being filled so quickly and a decision to build more”, says Suzanne Knowles.

Clients have free parking, the offices are light and spacious and with comfort cooling, there is also plenty of space to stretch out during the day and use the coffee break out area. No one feels alone working in their offices, and everyone is given lots of attention to ensure they are looked after.

Security and access are priority. Each office suite has its own key card entry and is alarmed. Access is 24/7 and the whole site has CCTV security. There are no extra charges for this access and it provides the flexibility businesses need to operate today.

“Our business approach has always been based on helping to support people run their own businesses by providing everything they would need to set up, expand or just run their current operation. We listen, ask their needs and support them all, so that they can remain successful and stay in business, with no long term financial commitments”, says Suzanne Knowles.
