It has been said many times, that your biggest asset is people. Furniture is for people and the equipment they use. Why invest in something more than folding tables? 

• Save money. If the table breaks, something else may break too. 
• Conserve valuable resources. People need a workspace were they can focus, attention is a resource.
• Less downtime means more productivity. Plan ahead and set up the furniture once.
• Respect and credibility for your staff and customers.
• Security, when things are clean and organized so is the work. Not every one thrives in chaos.
• Safety, clear walk ways, cables out of the way and less clutter.
• Growth management, plan purchasing in stages. Get what you need and allow time for growth.
• Image, yes it is important. As your company grows it may graduate from the garage to the boardroom.
