Group Business... Location

Lisa's blog post 

Lisa started off by looking at locations in Huddersfield and Leeds and potential places for creative businesses to locate.

Potential Locations - Huddersfield and Leeds

The Unit

After discussing our options, we decided on The Unit as our virtual office for the first year at least, or until we were making enough money to hire a permeant address.


The Unit diamond package (£50 plus VAT p/m) could be the perfect virtual office - hot desking, address, links to city college facilities, presentation room. There is the potential to move on to a proper address here for £150 a month. 

We are going to try and visit The Unit to take some photographs and find out more about what it offers.



This screen shot from google maps shows that is in a good location, close to the train station.

Competition at the unit

I thought it was important to look and find out if there would be any competition for us at The Unit. There are four web or graphic design based companies, but none focusing specifically on branding and identity as we are. Our biggest competition would be SBT who specialise in print.

blue clicks: website design


dynofusion: website design / marketing


graphic design specialising in print - competition



interactive design


There is a possibility that having other graphic design companies in the same area can work to our benefit as there is the potential for collaborations.
