What is a "Virtual Office" and Why do You Need It?

In today's mobile economy, digital entrepreneurs oftenly function without an office, which helps them save money and increases the adaptability of business processes. However, the lack of a physical address for a company often makes people skeptical. The virtual office service allows you to solve this problem.

Virtual office services provide young companies with the infrastructure of large businesses
, allowing entrepreneurs to focus on business tasks without worrying about their image and the high cost of rent. In the era of outsourcing, entrepreneurs do not always need a full-fledged office, but only some of its attributes: the presence of a legal and actual address, a dedicated workplace with 24/7 access and meetings with clients and partners. In addition to small business, this may be especially actual for a new brand with a weak or nonexistent reputation, allowing entrepreneurs to create a professional, trustworthy image.

Such a thing is actual when:

  • opening a new company, launching a pilot project or service;
  • creating a business on the Internet;
  • reducing office staff;
  • obtaining a legal address in a prestigious location;
  • opening a branch or representative office in another city or country;
  • participating in tenders and competitions, where the location of the company plays an important role;
  • conducting international activities, frequent business trips and staff trips;
  • there’s the need to receive mail and secretarial services;
  • there’s the need for technical support and business services;
  • organizing meetings in a professional environment.


The virtual office mostly provides company owners and their employees the opportunity to use the usual office space for their business needs, regardless of where they are located. For example, your company’s consultant may be located in Bangkok, but have a virtual office with an address and a personal secretary to answer calls in London. This would greatly simplify customer interactions in the UK.


An entrepreneur can use a virtual address for correspondence

Virtual Offices are real, not cloud-based offices. And although the remote employees are not physically located in the office, they can use its address as the address of the company and for business correspondence. This eliminates the need to use a home address for documents such as invoices and announcements. 

What will you save on via a virtual office?


Rent

A virtual office will give you everything you need to do business with minimal money. For large companies, this service will significantly reduce the cost of renting a physical office.

Utilities and other services

No office - no utility bills or other office services. You do not need to pay for electricity, security or cleaning. Moreover, the Internet and telephone line, as a rule, are already included in the cost of a virtual office.

Secretary

Using the services of a secretary in a virtual office is cheaper and more convenient than hiring a secretary with a monthly salary. Savings imply approximately 60%. Plus, your business will never stop due to the fact that your only secretary got sick or quit - the company that provides you with a virtual office will always find a replacement for such employees.
