updates on your new address is a must. I recommend assigning that task to one specific person to make sure no client or customer slides through the cracks. That should also include informing the contacts about any hours and days where your company will be out of touch because of the move. Depending on your business industry, this could be important in making sure they don’t go to another service provider during those times the company is unavailable. You will need to update your website’s address listing and any social media accounts that list your old office. If you have a Google My Business account setup, update that as well. When you have moved, also update the pictures of your office and your Google Maps listing. Whoever runs those digital portions of your company should be responsible for scrubbing your old office address from anything and updating it with the new location. New business cards will also probably need to be printed before you move.
LABEL EVERYTHING CORRECTLY
How you organize everything will determine the speed with which you can get your business back to running its daily operations at your new office. Label each box you pack clearly. This way, it will be easy to place them in the correct areas. There are a couple of labeling systems you could use. A numbering system works, even with the moving company. Have sets of numbers represent where boxes will end up on the floor plan, and label the floorplan to match. Employees can use their own numbers as well that relate to their future workstation. This is a bit more work when you start, but is well worth it and will save you a lot of time in the long run. Larger companies
