You may have heard the term ‘virtual office’ and are wondering exactly what the service entails and how it could help your business. Most new businesses do not have the resources to open an office in the CBD of the city, which is really where you want to be located, yet the rental costs are prohibitive for a business that has just been created.
Virtual Office Services
If, for example, you wanted a prestigious business virtual address in Sydney CBD, there are virtual office providers that can offer you a prestigious business address, plus a whole host of other essential office services. Packages start with a very basic service that gives you a city mailing address and all incoming mail is forwarded to the client, then there are what is called virtual reception services, where a qualified receptionist remotely answers your incoming calls in the name of your company. Cutting edge technology allows for a remotely located person to answer the call without the caller being aware that the person answering is not in your office, which means callers will have the impression that your offices are permanently manned by directly employed receptionists.
