benefits . Equally important is the network of brokers serving the region and industry on a national and even an international basis . Keeping close to the broking community through regular conversations can provide a valuable competitive advantage . At Atterbury , our motto is “ It ’ s a matter of association ”.
5 . Make the right calls
Rolling out a mega-development while managing risk is a delicate balancing act . It means knowing how to phase a project and anticipate the market to ensure you can act nimbly but without taking on too much risk at any one time . In this business , when decisions are made , things happen quickly and usually come with tight deadlines . You have to be
development-ready , but you also have to be prudent about how early you prepare .
6 . Enjoy what you do
Industrial , warehousing and logistics development may not seem as ‘ sparkly ’ as sectors like retail or offices , but it is a fascinating business once you start developing an understanding of it . It is incredible to see the passion of the tenant businesses in this field and extremely rewarding to partner with them to create a bright future and build facilities that will actively help them to reach their business goals . Perhaps the most important ingredient in success is in the way that the Atterbury team functions like a family ; we work hard , love a challenge and have fun doing what we enjoy , together .
