New Endeavors…
by Not Well Versed
Early this year (probably around March) I felt lead to start looking for office space for my business M.Y.O.B. Consulting.
City Centre - Parkview Condos in the back
It felt premature, but for whatever reason, after searching office space in downtown Orlando, I gave into the force that was drawing me to the downtown Kissimmee area. I landed at City Centre Parkview Condominiums just off Broadway. During a tour of the building I happened upon the UCF Business Incubator site on the 4th Floor. I was curious to learn more about this program and later scheduled a meeting with the site director and before I knew it, several months later, I had gone through the Excellence In Entrepreneurship classes and had been admitted into the program! This has proven to be a major step for my consulting business.
Signing the Lease to the new Office!
In June we signed a lease for brand new office space in the City Centre building and business has begun to grow! It was lots of fun moving into our office. I had to personalize the space, so with some paint and new furnishings from Ikea and West Elm we turned this boring shell of an office into a trendy and bright, comfortable yet professional space to work and be creative! I can’t believe it’s now THREE MONTHS since we’ve been in the program and the new office! In such a short period we’ve managed to grow our client base by about 5 new clients! In addition to new clients, through various networking events and seminars, we’ve made some great new connections and are purposefully working on our business in an effort to scale the company as we grow in staff and clientele.
