The general opinion is that the self-employed, freelancers, or entrepreneurs who start a business use virtual office services. However, recently more and more medium-sized and large companies want to expand their business with these services. The main goal is to test a new market instead of maintaining an expensive office.

Global Workspace Analytics conducted research that showed, the number of employees who work from home has increased by 140% since 2005. On the positive side, they cite saving money and time, attracting better-quality employees, and increasing productivity and efficiency. All these factors eventually bring better job satisfaction.

Why use virtual office services?

Save money

If you work alone or your company doesn’t need all employees gathered in one place, there is no need to rent an office and pay rent. The basic services offered by Virtual Office Croatia are renting a business address, and managing mail. Later depending on how your business grows, you can add other services. A virtual assistant can take care of your phone calls, answer e-mails, organize meetings and events, or do marketing activities for minimal costs. This will take your business to a professional level.

Make your home office a virtual office

If your business doesn’t usually demand face-to-face meetings, you probably don’t necessarily need a modern office. In those cases, a virtual office gives you a more professional image. Paying for an office in attractive locations is financially challenging for small entrepreneurs and companies. However, a virtual office based in such a location can help your business reputation. If a client wanders into the virtual office address hoping to find you there, you can be sure that the staff in charge of your business will greet them politely.

Better work-life balance

Daily driving to work and home has more negative effects than positive ones. Traffic jams, delays, and pollution are just some of them. An unfavorable traffic situation usually makes people nervous and angry. Unfortunately, this feeling can follow you through the whole day. Eventually, it affects maintaining good relations with colleagues and clients. Instead, you could use your commute time to complete work or devote time to yourself. It has been proven that job satisfaction affects the quality of life. Therefore, don’t neglect this aspect if you are thinking about a virtual office.

The less risk of starting a business

Good business ideas sometimes turn into serious business. However, they sometimes tend to be risky and rarely come to a realization. It doesn’t help either that many companies or entrepreneurs fail to maintain their businesses during the first year. Renting an office, hiring employees and technical equipment are big financial burdens. This also rarely helps to maintain or develop the business. Leasing a business address, allowing employees to work from home, and focusing on the very core of the business can help a company to become successful. In case it doesn’t happen, the losses will be incomparably minor.

Be more representative 

Anyone interested in the product or service you offer will search the Internet for information about your company. The first thing they will find is usually the address where the company is located and how to get in touch. Registering a company at the address where you live, calls into question not only your credibility but also your privacy. Therefore, an address in a prestigious location in an office building will give your clients the impression of a serious and professional company they will want to work with.
