Setup a Virtual Office in 3 Easy Steps

Setup A Virtual Office

Businesses are increasingly seeking to setup a virtual office, leveraging technology and digitization to streamline daily operations. This trend has made telecommuting and remote work increasingly practical and sought after, not only by employees but also by their employers. Technology has also empowered freelancers and self-employed professionals by providing the tools they need to do their jobs more efficiently and effectively. Given the COVID-19 pandemic, a virtual business environment has never looked more appealing.

Increasingly, companies are seeking to transition from traditional brick-and-mortar offices to become more agile and responsive. They are placing more value on productivity, rather than on a physical location and a rigid 9-to-5 schedule. These goals don’t require a physical office, but they do need an office address and an official phone number.

How to Setup a Virtual Office?

There are numerous benefits to choosing a virtual office. Among them, we can include the following:

• An Inexpensive Setup—A traditional brick-and-mortar location typically incurs numerous upfront expenses and long-term costs, including office leases, maintenance, and equipment purchases. Virtual offices, on the other hand, are usually subscribed to on a short-term, often monthly, basis, require minimal upfront investment, and cost far less in the long term.
• Little to No Startup Risk—With a smaller initial investment, businesses can set up their operations quickly and with less risk and commitment than traditional office space.
• Increased Freedom and Scaling Opportunities – Companies operating under a virtual office address will also be managed remotely. This makes them more flexible about when and where their employees can work. Most will only require a mobile device, such as a smartphone, tablet, laptop, and an internet connection. In addition, virtual offices allow them to scale their operations much faster and more efficiently, without feeling the burden and constraints of a traditional office. They can also hire skilled employees from outside their immediate area, making the labor pool virtually unlimited.

Another added benefit of virtual offices is their ability to be set up quickly. However, before signing up for such a service, you must still know what you want and need.

At a minimum, sign up for a mailing address that you can use to license and register your business; receive mail; and use email signatures, business cards, invoices, and other forms of printed material on your websites. In addition, you can also choose to have varying degrees of phone answering services, depending on your needs and requirements. That said, to set up your virtual office, you will need to follow these three simple steps:

• Choose the virtual address package you want from the BSSI list.

• Complete and return the forms.

• Please wait while we set up the service on your behalf.
