Since March 2020, many of us have been forced to turn our guest bedrooms into office spaces or to add a desk to the living room and work from home. Unfortunately, home office spaces rarely feel like you are back in the office. With virtual offices for rent, you can enhance your work from home experience by creating a virtual office space with the same level of professionalism as in person.
Virtual office spaces allow you to utilize typical virtual features such as video conferencing services and meeting rooms. However, virtual offices for rent also give you access to a professional phone number and grants access to a business mailing address.
Rather than using your home address, virtual offices give you access to a business mailing address so you can maintain both a level of privacy and create a more professional image. Here are our top 3 benefits of virtual offices for rent:
1. There’s no commute
This goes without saying, but since you’re working from home, you won’t have to spend time commuting by car, bus, train, or bike to work every morning and evening. This minimizes the possibility of showing up to work late and therefore promotes productivity. According to CNBC, nearly a quarter of all workers quit their jobs because of their frustration with their commute.
With a virtual office address, workers feel less pressure to consider varying factors in their commute such as weather, delays, traffic, etc. This minimizes stress on both the worker and business owner’s behalf, ensuring that all workers arrive to work on time. Similarly, virtual offices make it so you can eliminate daily commuting without letting customers know you are a business that works from home.
2. It’s cost-efficient
It’s no secret that renting a business center comes at a high price. First, there’s renting the actual space and on top of that, you have to pay for utility services such as heat, air conditioning, furniture, etc. By making your business virtual, you don’t have to spend money on office buildings and instead, you can focus on appropriately paying your workers.
If you’re a new business with a small budget, virtual office locations may be a perfect choice to capitalize on a more budget-friendly alternative. For a long term goal, you may want to consider an in-person office space, but virtual offices are a great way to get started on the right track toward this goal. You also can save money by requesting your workers use their own technology instead of providing computers, printers, and other office technology for them.
3. More vacation time
With extra minutes spared on your commute, there’s more time to spend with your partner, family, children, and friends. Virtual office locations offer a lot more flexibility than in person day offices. Many virtual offices offer flexibility in work hours as long as tasks get done by their due dates.
If you want to go do work outside during your lunch break, you can do that. If you want to get in some extra hours before you’re supposed to clock in so that you can end your work day early to go to your child’s dance recital, you can do that. Of course, it all comes down to your company’s policies, but virtual offices offer much more flexibility as long as you don’t have a scheduled meeting or conference.
You can also work from wherever you want, barring that it is a productive space. If you want to take a trip to Bora Bora but still have to work while you’re there, you can do that. Simply log on from your hotel room to maintain a strong business presence while on vacation. You can also turn your hotel room into a conference room or professional meeting room as long as you have a professional, clean background.
