5 Things You Need to Do Before You Move Your Business

Change Your Business Phone and Internet

Once you know your move-in date, schedule phone and internet services to stop at your old office and begin at your new one. Avoid down-time and confusion by having your utilities up and running when you move in.

 

 Keep Your Old Phone Number and Forward it to Your New Local Number

The best way to avoid confusing customers when you move is to make it easy for them to get in touch with you. Set up your old phone number to forward to your new, local business number.

 

Tell Friends and Referral Sources That You are Moving

Before you move, let friends and referral partners know where you’ll be moving and if you will be offering the same services. The heads up will keep referral sources from sending customers to the wrong office and will keep your business relationships strong. And your referral partners may able help you get new local leads so you can hit the ground running in your new location.

 

File a Change of Address with Appropriate Parties

Notify the post office, IRS, your Secretary of State and local taxing and licensing agencies of your new address. Filing all the proper paperwork ahead of time while ensure you can get to work as soon as you move into your new office.

 

Schedule Your Move Outside of Business Hours

A big commercial move is hardly business as usual, but you can avoid lost productivity and revenue by scheduling your move outside of business hours. Moving on a weekend can ensure that your business closes on time on Friday and opens on time on Monday. This means uninterrupted service for your customers and uninterrupted productivity for your business.
