I'm just about to move into an industrial unit after months of trying to find a pitch at sensible money. I'm renting a 2500sq ft unit £1000 a month cheaper than the 1500sq ft pitch I was looking at. I weighed up all the pros and cons a decided on the indoor unit because I believe the benefits are more, not just the £1000 a month rent saving and £0 business rates but nice dry and warm on cold winter days, anytime viewings even in short winter months, not having to clean the car a couple of times a week (8 miles away from the steelworks but still get horrible fall out if the winds wrong), a less dell boy trotter image I would have had to shed after the last tenant on the road side pitch and currently 80% of my sales come from internet leads anyway. I gulp every time I see my advertising spend in my accounts but at the end of the day it works and I believe I'm better off spending the £1000 a month saving on internet advertising where the audience is unlimited than the pitch in the hope that one of the hundreds of cars that pass a day will like the look of one of my cars. I suppose it made my decision easier because its a nice, clean set of 5 units in the town centre so not a massive industrial estate and there's a very well respected garage and bodyshop just down the road.
