I am the proud owner of Melbourne’s leading real estate branch. As well as doing the typical real estate things, like attending auctions and organising buyers, it’s my job to organise the rest of my employees and their clients. I also have to maintain our office space and ensure it is a good working environment for everybody. After all, we don’t want potential customers visiting unless it is in perfect condition every single day. And I like seeing my employees happy.
I recently hired an office glass tinting company servicing the Melbourne area to come and tint the windows of our offices. Our building is a combined store and office complex, which means that on the front windows we tend to hang posters of properties that are currently up for sale. It helps people walking past to know what kinds of properties are available in their area, as well as how much my agency could help them sell their house for if they chose us as their real estate agents.
As the manager of the office space, I decided to employ this company after watching a video online about the benefits of glass frosting. Our offices face the sun, and it can be a useful way to lower energy costs by keeping the space cool naturally, without an air conditioner. It’s also a brilliant way to ensure passersby cannot see into the office itself. We’re located on a busy shopping strip, and there is a lot of foot traffic. It can be awkward making eye contact with a pedestrian while you are working on your computer. By tinting our windows, we can make them much more useful than they already are. I really do believe a simple change like this can help improve morale amongst my employees. The space you work in can completely alter your mood, so it’s important to work in a space that’s great!
