Physical address
Many companies who offer virtual offices also offer physical addresses in major UK cities, including Manchester, Birmingham and Liverpool, allowing you to reach customers all around the country.
Whilst London is undeniably the biggest city for UK based businesses, it is also an attractive city for global companies, with Google building their new £1bn headquarters near King’s Cross station in London, and Chanel moving their HQ from New York. Having a presence in London could give your business a huge boost from the amount of new customers who will be able to find your services, especially if you offer a digital service.
Cost
By having a virtual office in London, you will be at the centre of the UK’s business world, without having to pay London office space prices. If we take the EC1 post code as an example, which covers prestigious business areas such as Camden or Hackney, a full virtual office can be set up for around £55 per month depending on the company, whilst physical office space can cost anywhere from £149 to £48,000 per month.
Services
Depending on the kind of package you have with your virtual office, you may have some fantastic features that can save you time and make you look more professional. You may also have access to a receptionist, mail forwarding, spam email screening and meeting rooms depending on the package that you choose.
Working from home
Being able to work from your own home is one of the great joys in life. Whether it’s sitting in your most comfortable chair or having the TV on in the background, working from home gives you a more relaxed approach to your activities.
