Tenant Spotlight: Law Office of Heather Mobley

Heather MobleyMeet Heather Mobley

A native of the Charlotte area, Heather Mobley graduated Magna Cum Laude from Appalachian State University with a bachelor’s of arts in political science in 1998. After spending a few years post-graduation working as office manager for Mobley Electric Company, a business owned and operated by her family, Heather decided to pursue a career in law. She attended Wake Forest University Law School and graduated in 2006, taking a job soon after as an attorney with a family law firm in Greensboro, North Carolina. After spending several years building legal skills and gaining experience at the firm, she decided in 2011 it was time to open her own practice.

Building a Business

When she initially opened the Law Office of Heather Mobley, Heather was operating from a location in Mount Pleasant, NC. As an attorney focusing on family law, part of her daily work included representing clients at both the Cabarrus County Courthouse in Concord, NC and the Department of Human Services in Kannapolis, NC, each over twenty minutes away from her office. While she enjoyed her time in Mount Pleasant, there were times when the distance complicated matters for her clients.

“Sometimes clients either were unable to drive or didn’t have access to a vehicle,” Heather said. “Buses didn’t travel to where I was originally located, so in these cases I would need to meet my clients in Concord, where public transportation is available.”

Eventually, the complication prompted Heather to find a space closer to the courthouse and the DHS. She wanted to be able to create more efficiency within her day-to-day life at work.

“Since I’ve moved my practice to Concord, I’ve really benefited from the fact that I’m so close to the downtown area,” she said. “My proximity to the courthouse and the availability of public transportation has simplified things for me in a big way.”

Tenant Spotlight: Perry Productions

perrypro logoAfter operating a digital marketing/website development business from home for twenty years, Lisa and Brian Perry decided in the fall of 2014 that it was time to expand. The couple had been the heart and soul of Perry Productions since the beginning, but after seeing an increased demand for their services, they knew they’d need to hire additional employees. As parents of two boys, ages fifteen and eleven, the Perrys felt it was important that they develop a strong work-life balance as they built their team. They knew that finding the perfect office space would be an important decision in the future growth of their company.

Meet the Perrys

Lisa and Brian met during their college years while attending Ohio University and relocated to Charlotte, North Carolina after graduation. They spent some time trying to start careers in their chosen fields (Lisa in communications and Brian in graphic design) but struggled to find employers willing to hire them without any experience. For them, a great option was to start a business of their own.

“We’ve always been risk takers,” said Brian Perry, Art Director and Co-founder of Perry Productions, commenting on the initiative he and his wife utilized during their early twenties when starting their business. “For me, as someone who played baseball throughout college, I’ve always kept in mind the idea that you’ll never be able to steal second base if you don’t take your foot off of first.”

Drawing from their chemistry, confidence, and work ethic, Lisa and Brian opened Perry Productions in 1994, originally operating as a graphic design firm. After more than two decades, the company has grown to offer complete services in the areas of graphic design, digital marketing, and website development.

First-Time Tenants

When they decided in September of 2014 that they needed to transition into a commercial space, the process seemed daunting. They weren’t experienced renters and most property owners wanted them to commit to a lease of three or more years, which didn’t give the Perrys the flexibility they wanted.

“When we first started looking at office spaces, we were a little intimidated by the idea of a long-term commitment and the potential cost associated with an upfit,” said Lisa Perry, President and fellow Co-Founder.
In most cases, a commitment of several years just isn’t feasible for small business owners who are looking to position themselves for growth, but aren’t quite sure how fast this will take place.
