Office Reception – Time to improve your image.
Historically, many companies were under the impression that you had to spend tonnes of money on stylish office Reception desks and furniture. You will not be surprised to hear that has now changed and there are lots of reasonably priced reception furniture options available.
The importance of investing in your reception area can’t be underestimated. It is the most impressionable part of your building. We all know first impressions count, be it customers, suppliers or staff, they all will form an opinion of your company based on the reception area. Is it stylish, clean, organised and professional or is your reception area dull, untidy, unorganised and unprofessional?
There are some very simple rules of thumb. Regardless of budget, it costs noting to clean your reception desk and keep the area tidy and clean. A lick of paint can go a long way to reinventing a dull reception area. Some framed customer testimonials or certificates from suppliers will help make the area look professional.
When deciding on your office reception desk, you no longer need to spend thousands on a veneer piece of office furniture with a glass top. People no longer expect this level of spend, but they do expect tidiness and professionalism. By investing as little as €300 you can buy a beech reception desk that will meet all your needs and will be practical and stylish. In addition to this you can use some reasonably priced reception chairs – the key to visitors chairs is colour. They do not need to be the most comfortable office chairs in Ireland, but by using a splash of colour you can liven up your reception desk no end.
If you have lots of brochures and leaflets, then you need a system to organise these. You can use a proper brochure stand. Although expensive, these can really look well. If you need a more reasonable solution, then check out the standard desktop leaflet dispensers.
So with some smart planning, you can make your reception area nice and professional. Never underestimate first impressions. Company values and professionalism can, in many cases, be determined by how serious you attend to your reception area.
Love your office.
