Five reasons you are ready for a virtual office at Greenway Business Centre
Over the last two years, the need for a virtual office has grown exponentially. The worldwide working landscape has changed, and businesses are being built in a far more dynamic way.
Many start-ups were launched during the pandemic with as little as a smartphone. As they grow, a virtual office becomes increasingly more attractive to provide a more professional service to customers whilst retaining flexibility for owners. Find out if you are ready for a virtual office below.
What is a virtual office?
Before finding out if you need one, it’s a good idea to know what a virtual office is, and how it works. Virtual offices supply a professional business address without the need for a physical space, allowing you the flexibility to work from anywhere. The virtual office provider may also offer call answering in your business name and accept your post and deliveries.
1. You are a travelling business
If you work on the go or are based at different locations, then you’re a prime candidate for a virtual office in Greenway Business Centre. Managing enquiries across different areas while working can be difficult so having a relevant, local address can encourage growth in new areas.
2. You have a limited budget
In most cases, start-ups begin life at home, probably from a spare room or garage. Budgets are small and for the time being at least, having a physical office space is pretty far down the priority list. Enter the virtual office! A more cost-effective solution that provides a professional look for your growing business.
3. Answering calls are important
Having a virtual office in Greenway Business Centre means that you’ll never miss important calls again. If you are out and about, or stretched across various locations, managing your incoming calls can be stressful and distracting during your working day. At Capital Space for example, we have a team of friendly and skilled reception staff to answer your calls and take messages in your business’ name. Calls can also be redirected to your mobile or another landline.
4. You want to move into a new region
Businesses often look to expand into new areas that could be a significant distance from where they are currently. A virtual office would give you the credibility of having a local contact number and a physical meeting space if needed. This allows you to expand your business anywhere you like!
5. You need occasional meeting spaces
Using Zoom or Microsoft Teams is a great way to connect with clients and colleagues but sometimes an in-person meeting is the best option. If you need the flexibility of using a meeting room as and when, a virtual office that has that facility would be a great solution. At Capital Space, we have a high standard of meeting spaces available to our customers. Clean, well equipped and with free on-site parking, when you ask a potential client for a meeting, you can be sure they will get the best first impression of your business at a Capital Space location.
