Serviced
Offices can be a Profitable
Alternative to Paying High Rent
A
unique service that is being
used by many professionals today
is the Serviced Office. With so
many business professionals
working from their homes or on
the go, the Serviced Office has
evolved into a popular
alternative to leasing a
permanent office. It provides a
creative solution which benefits
the small business owner
tremendously.
What is a Serviced Office?
A
Serviced Office gives small
business owners a presence in
the business world for a
fraction of normal rental
costs. It is an alternative to
leasing an office space, which
can be costly for a new business
owner. Serviced Office services
may also provide a set of online
tools to help manage the small
business. Although Serviced
Office services differ, below is
a list of some of the most
common features.
1. Physical Business Address
Clients are provided with their
own physical mailing address
where business mail and small
packages can be received.
Serviced Offices are not
typically used to receive heavy
volumes of mail as in a mail
order business, but normal
business mail quantities only.
Those who operate a business
from their home can use the
Serviced Office address instead
of their home address, which
provides a safe and professional
way to receive mail. Mail to a
Serviced Office can be forwarded
to the client's home address.
2. Local Phone Number
Serviced Office services also
include a local phone number
where a business owner can
receive calls and messages.
Voice mail and forwarding are
usually included so the client
can check messages at any time.
This works great for someone who
works from home or does not wish
to tie up a cell phone line if
they are continuously on the go.
3. Fax Capabilities
Being able to receive faxes is
important to any business.
Faxes are used to conduct
business, send reports, take
orders and receive memos every
day. Using the Serviced Office
fax, the client receives faxes
which can be forwarded directly
to his/her email.
4. Part-time or Full-time
Office Access
Some
Serviced Office services offer
part-time access to a desk or
work station with Internet
capabilities, office equipment
and more. This is available for
those times when the client
needs to organize a presentation
before a conference or use the
Internet or computer for
business purposes.
5. Conference Room Access
Conference rooms are available
for rent with some Serviced
Office setups. The client can
hold business meetings or give
sales presentations without
interruption.
6. Web Conference Room Access
Web
conference rooms are available
for virtual meetings. Rather
than hold a physical meeting,
the client can hold virtual
business meetings or give
virtual sales presentations.
Virtual meetings have gained
popularity in recent years
because they save time and money
while providing instant
presentation opportunities.
Some Serviced Office services
offer this tool as an added
service.
7. Online virtual tools
Online tools such as calendar,
address book, webmail, document
repository, to do's, forums,
digital fax and digital voice
mail have become common among
many large businesses. Some
Serviced Office services offer
these tools and others as an
added service.
Who can Benefit by using a
Serviced Office?
People of all trades find
Serviced Offices useful.
Executives, salespeople,
accountants, marketing
consultants and online business
owners each benefit by using a
Serviced Office for certain
tasks. Those who work from home
and wish to establish a business
presence find that a Serviced
Office meets this need.
Corporations also use Serviced
Offices as a means of testing a
business location before opening
a new branch.
When
renting an office is not an
option, a Serviced Office can be
used by small business owners to
meet the daily needs while
saving time and money.
Grace Corporate Park provides
Serviced Office Spaces to many
small and large firms.
