Banging Business Tip: Small Spaces

Money grows in small spaces

February, 2011 (New York, NY) - Money grows in small spaces - Boom Boom, owner of Boom Boom Brow Bar has a mere 250-square-foot-space in New York City and she did a whopping 10,000 brows last year!" I love the cozy intimate feel of a small space and I know my customers do too…it's almost like they feel safe when they enter. Plus, these days, people want the specialized attention and service a small boutique offers versus the same ol' shtick from other larger establishments," explains Boom Boom.

Boom Boom's Space Saving Tips

Go vertical, even with clients; sit them up! It takes less room and brows can be critiqued better.

Have a statement piece in the room that can be easily changed to create a fresh feel, like a funky rug or pillows. (Boom Boom has a zebra rug.)

Hang decor items high on the walls and ceilings-including chandeliers-to force eyes upward.

Don't block windows; keep them clear to create a sense of more space.

Keep inventory under counters; it's easy to get to and maximizes space.

Order inventory and office supplies on an as-needed basis; it reduces the amount of storage needed and the ordering of unnecessary items.
(Hint: Office Depot sends orders of $50 or more next day air for free!) (boomboombrowbar.com)
