Starting up a new business, whilst highly liberating, can also be one of the most stressful things you’ll ever go through (alongside the more commonly cited scenarios such as a death in the family, moving, giving birth and so on). Preparing a business plan, securing funding, perfecting the product, making it marketable, finding customers. These are just a few of the things commonly associated with a business’s initial stages.And for many new entrepreneurs, all of this is going on whilst also holding down a full-time job.
Many new business owners prefer to keep their full-time work in place whilst testing the waters of their new enterprise. It simply makes sense. Why make the massive commitment of giving up on a wage when you can test out your business idea first?
This of course means that many new businesses are home based operations.
Here’s how a Virtual Office can help these enterprises:
Home address protection
Giving out an address is the norm in business; customers expect a contact point. Even in this digital age where the majority of people are happy to make a purchase after seeing just a website, many people still expect to see an address on said website.
Now if you give out your home address to customers and potential customers, the inevitable will eventually happen. Someone will turn up on your doorstep. By using a Virtual Office, you are basically shielding your own address from the public. You give your Virtual Office address out on your website and other marketing materials, people don’t turn up at your house. Simple.
Projecting the right impression
Some people like the fact that they’re home based operations, and some would rather keep that fact quiet. If you fall into the latter, a Virtual Office is the perfect solution. Virtual Offices are often based at prestigious addresses; addresses that you would be proud to give out to customers, potential customers and business partners.
