Office Essentials; From Cheap Binders To Furniture

Anyone that works in an office setting knows there are some supplies that cannot be avoided because they are basics to a business setting. Telephones and computers are always needed, as well as desks and chairs. Filing systems and other storage units are also considered indispensable.

When it comes to setting up a functional desk, the essentials for a student are virtually the same as for an executive at a corporation. Fundamental desk supplies include notepads and pencils, pens, stapler, calendar, calculator, and planner. Open a typical office drawer and you are likely to find staples, paper clips, glue sticks, post-it notes and correction tape.

Office meetings are likely to take place regularly. The meetings require special supplies of course, which often begins with reports or other handouts. The individuals attending the meetings will need to take notes as the meeting progresses and there is always an official transcriber.

Although, the reports and handouts may be presented or kept in cheap binders, the information contained in those documents is often priceless. The reality is that prized secrets are often shared in business and board meetings, and though the data is written on ordinary paper that is held together with staples or paper clips, it could contain a million dollar idea.

Avid readers never judge a book by its cover, and savvy businessmen and women do not judge the value of a report by the way it is presented. While presentation can be impressive, it is the content that truly matters. Additionally, learned business people realize that saving costs on such things as office supplies allows additional funding for other areas. Thus, a million dollar idea presented in an inexpensive folder may lead one to believe that the creator is indeed, intelligent and moneywise. That of course makes the content even more compelling.

The fact is that the cost of a binder or folder has no bearing on what it holds and a cheap folder performs the same function as a fancier, more expensive version. While a penny saved may be a penny earned, saving money on essentials like office supplies is simply smart business.

About the Author

Janis Greenburg is an executor of a major corporation headquartered in Chicago, IL. At a recent meeting she was presented with two new design plans for a new facility; one was in a stylish and chic binder with elaborate page tabs, and the other was presented in three separate parts, with cheap binders being used to hold the content together. While the first had an impressive presentation, the content was lacking the pizzazz Ms. Greenburg was hoping for. To her delight, the plain, clear view binders held ideas that had just the zest Ms. Greenburg was looking to find. Taking a lesson from the meeting, Ms. Greenburg immediately cut her own office expenses by switching to inexpensive office supplies for her basic needs.
