Steve and Ryon established Ringo Retro in May 2024 with a mission to celebrate the magic of bygone eras and rediscover the joy of dressing with individuality and flair. As a start-up vintage retro clothing business, they have become well versed in the challenges it takes to set up a new company both in work life and home life.
To help them with the beginnings of their business, Steve and Ryon looked to begin renting a storage unit, and have made full use of the the benefits that come along with it. Let’s take a look at how they support their needs with a storage unit in Ready Steady Doncaster.
Challenge
When thinking about the best space for their upcoming business venture they considered their own home, however Steve and Ryon both knew that they wanted to keep their business and personal life separate.
Along with this, starting a business is a costly and time consuming process so finding the most efficient and value for money solution that allowed them to keep their business separate was a main priority.
Solution
Steve and Ryon found the perfect solution by renting a storage unit at Ready Steady Doncaster. The storage unit provided a cost-efficient option that allowed them to maintain a clear separation between their business and personal lives. Recognising the need for more than just storage space, they had electricity installed in the unit. This upgrade enabled them to set up WiFi and use the unit as a functional office space.
“It has enabled us to still have a home and keep our business separate so we can come here to work and it is as if we are going to work and then we still have our homelife without our business taking over the home, which is invaluable as you have got to have that balance.”
This arrangement allowed them to grow Ringo Retro without cluttering their home or paying for expensive office space. Using the storage unit helped them keep a good balance between work and personal life, setting up a solid base for their business.
