Many small businesses, especially in ecommerce, start online, or in a very small space. But if successful, these businesses can quickly find themselves limited by the space they are operating in.

In today’s episode we look at when to upgrade your small biz space and the pros and cons of doing so.

To start, Sarah and Brian discuss:

-      What Sarah has set in place to help her decide when to upgrade her business space

-      What she and many other small businesses should look for and consider in a new business space

-      When it’s not necessary to upgrade a small biz space

Sarah is then joined by Nic Fordyce to discuss how he went about upgrading his business space.

Nic is a cattle station worker, husband, father and co-founder of a website application development business and is also the founder of CampdraftAus.

After starting his business in his parents spare room Nic has continued to grow CampdraftAus and made some interesting choices when it comes to increasing his business space.

In today’s episode Nic shares:

-      His tip for increasing product numbers

-      How small his first product storage space was

-      What made him decide he had to upgrade

-      The benefits to expanding your space

Key Quotes:

“If you can bite the bullet and back yourself to be able to sell the product that works a bit better for me”

“Speaking specifically for ecommerce, if you’re gonna be in town…I’d think look at somewhere where you’re close to a post office.”
