Why a Virtual Office Space Was Exactly What My Business Needed
If you are considering renting a virtual office space for your business but are not totally convinced it's the right move, here are my reasons why this type of rental proved to be exactly what my company needed.
I absolutely did not want to commit to a long lease whilst developing my company as I was still not totally convinced of the longevity or the best location for it, therefore the virtual office space I rented fitted the bill perfectly as it removed any potential anxiety that I may have had relating to a commitment to a long term, conventional style lease.
It was also absolutely essential for me to have a prestigious business address from which to run my operation, as I was perfectly aware that in my particular industry this would prove to be vitally important.
My virtual office address ticked every box and was in a geographical location that I most definitely could otherwise not have afforded.
The other huge benefit was that I was provided with extremely professional staff who were reliably available, and on a daily basis would professionally and conveniently deal with my calls, take my messages and basically act as my own secretary.
This was ideal as whilst I needed the convenience of a secretary on hand and somebody to answer my calls, I definitely did not want the regular outgoing or have to especially hire somebody for that role.
Of course if a company is well established or requires many people to run it successfully on a daily basis, that is a very different story, but they are many businesses testing a new market or maybe a specific location.
Therefore a virtual office can prove to be an excellent way of dipping you toe into a new market or a new location before undertaking a commitment to a more expensive, long-term conventional style office space.
The other really great aspect is that when I needed to hold a conference or a meeting, professional, well equipped rooms specifically geared for this were always available and very easily booked.
In fact, the standard of meeting rooms provided at my virtual office was higher than that of the meeting rooms I had access to when a previous business was located in a conventional rental.
As I stated earlier, a virtual office will definitely not suit every business, but they most definitely suited mine at the time.
No doubt numerous other companies requiring the same type of facilities at the same reduced price will no doubt be looking to rent a virtual office space.
I would certainly recommend this type of office to any businesses considering office rental.
It will provide your business with the same excellent facilities that it did for me, at an affordable price.
