What's a “Virtual Office”? The Low-Down on Balaklava's Affordable Remote Working Spaces
It seems that techie words are sprinkled everywhere these days. Some are relatively simple to figure out – such as how digital tokens are called cryptocurrency. Some, however, are complete head-scratchers. Metaverse. Blockchain. Virtual office.
What the heck is a “virtual office”? You hear it advertised at Balaklava’s new facility and possibly wonder, if virtual means “not physically existing as such” then why would you need an invisible office solution? What does someone even do with that?
Let us at Balaklava Technology Simplified explain this type of flexible office space and how we offer it right here in Walkerton.
Although they sound make-believe, a virtual office is a real office in a real building that offers remote working solutions. Basically, it’s a physical workspace providing meeting room rentals and office-related admin support such as mailboxes and a message service.
Here’s how a virtual office benefits your business:
· A physical address in a well-established area gives you instant credibility. No one wants to do business with someone they don’t trust. Having a brick-and-mortar location provides proof that you are who you say you are. Bonus: You don’t have to pay the overhead or fill the building with staff.
· Trouble-free package delivery. You have a registered office where your parcels can be delivered. Bonus; Your home address remains private and confidential.
· Local customers will find you online. Want people to search you out using “near me”—even when in reality the spot you hang your hat is two hours away? Balaklava’s got you covered. Bonus: Virtual offices grant you an SEO geolocation.
· You’ll save loads of cash. The hydro bill doesn’t come to you. You’re not shelling out for rent or mortgage. When you need to connect with a client or host a high-quality video conference you can quickly and easily book our meeting rooms online. Bonus: Shared office space for your virtual team.
· You get reliable, unlimited, high-speed internet and state-of-the-art tech without the hassle or high payments. We’re experts in the field. We boast the best products and services. They’re incredibly easy to use. Bonus: We’re here to help if you ever need it—but you probably won’t because when we say easy peasy we mean it.
Statistics Canada states that “18.7 percent of employees worked mostly from home in May 2024”. That’s a lot of folks cramming their business life into fairly small and non-private spaces. If you’re one of them, we’ve got affordable remote working solutions for you and your team.
Still wondering what a blockchain or the metaverse is? Yeah, me too. At least we’ve mastered what virtual offices are.
