Make your conference rooms usable Ideally, you will have some input when your conference rooms are being designed so that you can insist on appointments such as sink with running water or a small refrigerator, a bank of outlets and built-in screens. If you have to install any of these items aftermarket, then find a good contractor who can make the utilities fit in with the design and décor of the room

I recommend:  Polycom can make your conference rooms into spaces that can run the most technologically advanced meetings you can contrive. Get a quote online from Remodelers Online for your conference upgrades.

Find business conference room furnishings You can spend a small fortune on a custom-made conference table that will really stand out and make a huge impression on clients if one of the main purposes of your office conference room is to impress. Or you can find great deals on modular conference room tables that can convert to a multitude of shapes and sizes to accommodate a variety of uses.

I recommend:  CSN has a huge selection of conference room tables in every conceivable size and shape. Paul Downs makes beautiful custom tables in exotic woods with inlays and odd shapes for a spectacular impression of success.

Let others use your office conference rooms Whether an employee has a pet nonprofit that needs a monthly meeting space or one of your board members is involved in a charity, you can make your conference room available to them. You might offer the rooms during office hours for luncheons or daytime meetings, rent the rooms in the evening for a small fee to community groups or allow a new small business to use your conference rooms for meetings of his own as he grows his business. Collect a fee or use the time as a tax-deductible charitable contribution and build community loyalty at the same time.

I recommend:  List your conference room with the Training Registry for professionals and community groups to find your available space. Let the procurement professionals at Contact Pointe know about your available facilities as they may need something in your area.
