It's true, there are a few essential leasing strategies every business owner should know before signing on the dotted line. In this solo episode of Build Boldly, host Pat Rodgers breaks down each step. From identifying your true space requirements—like delivery access, 24/7 availability, and customer-facing potential—to understanding the real all-in costs of a lease, Pat reveals the common pitfalls that can stall business growth.
You’ll learn how flexible leasing can give your company the freedom to scale up or down, the pros and cons of different lease terms, and why right sizing (or even downsizing) can actually improve productivity by bringing you closer to your customers. Pat also explains how to evaluate hidden costs, negotiate terms that fit your goals, and align your leasing strategy with your long-term business vision.
Whether you’re a small business looking for office space, warehouse storage, or a turnkey commercial solution, this episode is packed with actionable insights to help you avoid costly mistakes and position your business for sustainable growth.
