Businesses that Thrive in Recessions

With the consequences of the 2008-09 banking crisis and bailout still being felt, and a looming Brexit making the future uncertain, the economic climate is currently rather chilly and threatening for most people. If you’re feeling insecure about the future, you might want to look at this guide to businesses that thrive on recession rather shrink. This could be your chance to find a new job or investment that will see you make a profit in this uncertain economy rather than worry about your losses.

Storage Facilities

Self storage companies find new and bigger markets in recessions. As others need to tighten their belts and downsize their homes and businesses, the demand for secure storage facilities grows and grows. New facilities and companies open regularly with one of the newest, byStored, offering a pick up and delivery service as part of their terms.

With less people buying houses and a growing army of renters, especially in big cities, people are also moving house more regularly and one of the primary reasons to use storage facilities according to a recent poll is to store items during a move.

If you are able to offer safe and cheap storage London will provide you with a crowd of customers who are all keen for your services.

Accountants

Rather than trying to cut costs by doing their own taxes, businesses continue to recognise the value of accountants during recessions. It’s a false economy to try and cut experts out of the picture for a small saving, as paying a modest fee for their services could net you a much bigger saving via reduced tax bill.

If you’re still picking a career or considering retraining to acquire more bankable skills, accountancy is a stable, safe profession that weathers downturns better than many others.

Entertainment

With bad news on every bulletin and jobs frequently unstable and poorly paid, anything that supplies entertainment and distraction tends to thrive in recession. Spending on alcohol and sweets goes up when people are depressed, and ‘affordable luxuries’ do well in place of premium purchases. For example, someone facing economic stress may choose to put off buying a a £150 cashmere jumper, but allow themselves a smaller treat like a £15 tube of lipstick.

Some smart marketing on your part could see your small business thrive as the next provider of affordable luxuries to people sorely in need of inexpensive but rewarding treats in a time financial gloom.

Advantages of Self-Storage

I am sure that you have heard about self-storage units such as storage units Albuquerque before. Maybe you know somebody in your family who uses such units on a regular basis, or maybe you yourself rent that extra space to allow you to keep some things in a safe way.

However, if you are on the fence whether to rent a storage unit or not, below I would like to give you a few reasons why renting a self-storage space is such a good idea:
1. You pay for only what you use if you know how to determine how much space you really need.
2. You can gain access to your goods at any time of day or night. Many self-storage units in my area offer that kind of option and it is fair to say that they deliver on their promises.
3. You are allowed to store any types of goods including your car. As a matter of fact, this is something that attracts many people to those type of storage facilities. One good example when you night want to store a car in a self-storage is when you go on holidays and might not want to leave your vehicle parked outside of your home or even in your garage when it might not be safe as well.
4. Most units of this type are climate controlled, which means that by storing your goods there you have a chance to protect them from damp, scratches, etc. This can be particularly useful if you have a lot of moisture in your home, but would like the goods you own to be moisture free..
5. Many of self-storage units offer very comprehensive packing options that can allow you to move your goods very easily at a time that is convenient to you. A food storage facility is a facility that helps you to ensure that your belongings are so securely packed that nothing bad is going to happen to them in transit.

As you can see, there are many benefits of hiring self-storage facilities. The next decision you will have to make is which unit in your area is good for your needs.
