Are you a small business owner looking to expand?
A key step in establishing a solid foundation for your business is having a physical location and address that customers can easily locate and engage with. Starting from home is practical, but using a home address can lack the credibility of a city address and pose privacy concerns.
This can pressure some business owners to rent office space, but this isn’t cost-effective for small and emerging businesses with few employees. Instead, opting for a virtual office with a co-working, collaborative environment is a smarter and financially safer choice.
Depending on your preferred layout and price point, you can hire a private office, a dedicated desk, and much more. However, one of the best ways to combine convenience and flexibility is through a virtual business address.
What is a virtual address, and what are its benefits?
A virtual business address offers small—to medium-sized business owners, freelancers, or contractors the opportunity to have a prestigious office location without the need to be there daily.
For a monthly fee, you gain access to a premium address that you can use when promoting your business, lending you more credibility and helping you earn trust. In some cases, you can also drop by and access the co-working amenities if booked in advance.
Using a virtual address means you can work remotely from coffee shops, home, or whatever suits you best without feeling like you’re wasting money on rent. You also aren’t stuck in a year-long contract or overhead expenses. A virtual address is a month-to-month membership and can be cancelled within one month’s notice. All costs are included in the total price.
The importance of a virtual address
With a virtual address, you always have a professional location to use as your business’ home base whenever needed. You can put the address on Google Search so customers can find you, include it on business cards or website pages, and use it for mail and packages. It can also add to your professional branding and corporate identity.
Having a premium business location will bring you closer to your customers. For instance, an address in a vibrant suburb can position you at the heart of your target market, helping you to connect more effectively with your specialised customer base.
