When it comes to the exterior of your small business, appearance is everything. You want potential and returning customers alike to all be impressed with the appearance of your building and property. Attractive curb appeal reassures customers that they are choosing the right business.
Parking
One of the most important features of the outside of your business it’s the parking lot. This is one of the first things your customers will see when they arrive. Make sure the asphalt is properly maintained at all times. Keep the snow cleared off in the winter. Make sure the lot drains properly for the rainy season. Lines dictating parking space boundaries should be clear. Signs and accompanying markings for handicap spaces should be clear and well-maintained.
Lighting
Good lighting can greatly increase your curb appeal, and your visibility within the community. When it’s dark outside, everyone will always be able to see your business because it’s all lit up. Not only does lighting increase visibility, it also increases safety. If customers are coming and going, you don’t want them to risk hurting themselves. Lighting is especially important if there is any kind of step or uneven pavement. It is also important to have good lighting whether your business is open at night or not, because if someone is just walking past you still want them to be safe. Mote lighting also increases security, as there are fewer places to hide this way.
