UK sees a rise in the Virtual Office
A major office brokerage in the UK is reporting a rise in enquiries for virtual offices. These are also becoming more prevalent in the US as well, however not everyone appears to be aware of what a virtual office is as this video demonstrates. Virtual offices are a great way for new and established companies to establish a presence in almost any country in the world. This is because serviced office companies such as Regus, have centres in nearly 100 countries and so can take your calls and handle your mail without you ever having to visit the building. You can use the address on your business card and even use the building’s meeting rooms should you need to my a client.
Given the current economic problems in the US, inlcluding spiralling unemployment, a virtual office is an ideal way of starting a new buisness without huge upfront costs. A lot of people assuming starting a company is expensive. However, give that property costs are usually the highest cost for a company, by using a virtual office you will be keeping these to a minimum. America has traditionally be known as the land of opportunity and a virtual office provides the opportunity for almost anyone to reigster a company and a business address if they choose to take the plunge. They are upto 75% cheaper than renting conventional serviced office space.
