If you are not aware of the term “virtual office space,” hopefully this article will educate you some, and at the same time inform you how it has changed the landscape of office leasing.

Now, though, let’s talk about virtual office space.
What is virtual office space?
Virtual Office Space is a service that gives you a business address, a place to receive mail, and access to meeting rooms & physical office space, without having to pay for full-time office rental. This is helpful for small businesses and entrepreneurs. Actually, it is helpful for any business which has a small budget and is of the nature where a physical address is not really necessary.
Virtual office space goes by many names, the two most common being shared office space and the most-widely used coworking space.
How virtual office space has changed the way we look at offices.
It’s all about need and cost when talking about virtual office space. Instead of paying between $1000-$3000 per month for a physical office space, oftentimes incurring secondary costs like signage, utilities, WiFi, office upkeep, and others, the virtual office is rented by the month, when you need it, and the secondary expenses are not incurred.
Take our own Paddock Place Office Suites as an example. We offer office space for $550 per month, no long-term commitment. For that monthly fee, you get a physical office space, a mailing address, utilities, WiFi, shared conference room, shared break room, and a coworking atmosphere where ideas are shared and like-minded people can find companionship.
You only pay for the time you use it, and this is a game-changer for small businesses with limited operating budgets.
Is it for you?
Only you can answer this question. Do you need a physical face for your company? Do you need walk-in traffic? Do you need drive-by traffic? Or is your business of such a nature where you do not depend upon the public actually seeing your name on a sign above your office?
Are you wasting money, monthly, on office costs which you cannot justify?
Can the majority of your business be done remotely? Do you and your employees really need to be with each other daily in order for work to be performed, or can the work be performed from home?
These are the questions you must ask yourself. All we can do is share the information with you, and tell you that the coworking space we lease works wonderfully well for our clients.
Why not dip your toe in the water and see if the temperature is all right for you? Try coworking space for a month; run a test in your company and see if the work can be done with your employees at home and you in a coworking space. The results of that test just might surprise you.
