HOW TO DIVERSIFY WITH YURTS FOR LIFE

Think of ways to make your business stand out from the crowd! With our Yurts, the sky really is the limit. You could create an event &/or accommodation space for Weddings, celebrations, & parties, festivals complete with glampsite, Yoga retreats or therapy rooms, outdoor education, team building or corporate events. Selling Christmas Trees? Why not set up a Winter Wonderland complete with Santa’s grotto for the kids and mulled wine tent for the grown-ups.

Our Yurts give you the versatility to mix it up each season, and even the choice to move your Yurts to different plots each season. Consider the SPACE and LOCATION you have for your idea, don’t think straight, think outside the box – think round, and let your creativity flow!

It is not a case of “build it and they will come” – you need to know your market. Think about WHO you want to share your land with, i.e. who you want your guests or visitors to be, and how much involvement or TIME you want to invest in them.

For example, do you want to be a hands-on host? Or would you prefer to take more of a back seat. An easy solution there would be to franchise your land to someone who manages their own event space. Yurts for Life has helped plenty of new businesses get their sites up and running, and we can offer further tips on what to consider to help you identify your market.

Objectives and Timings are going to be key in getting your business up and running. Think SMART: Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic and Timely.

If you’re planning on trading from the 1st July for example, then you’ll need to set in place a time-frame for ordering your Yurt, social media & marketing campaigns, ground-works preparation, right up to delivery & installation. All this can sometimes take as long as 6 months. Consider your BUDGET and what’s achievable. We have the experience to be able to offer you professional advice to help bring your project to life.

A tried and tested method is worth learning from and building on. One client prepared the marketing strategy for his farm shop by joining FARMA [National Farmers Retail and Markets Association].
