How is a ‘Virtual Office’ different than telecommuting or co-working?
Access Office Business Center’s Virtual Office packages are similar to co-working or telecommuting but not the same. Although co-working, telecommuting, and virtual offices all are ways to save on the hard costs of leasing a space and hiring staff, a virtual office package with Access Office Business Center portrays your business as professional and polished through services such as a trained receptionist, a private phone number with remotely accessible voicemail, and mail and package handling.
Similar to telecommuting, virtual offices offer the ability for you to work anywhere, anytime. However, as a telecommuter you have no administrative staff or a receptionist to deal with phone calls, mail, and meetings. With a virtual office, instead of connecting directly to your personal cell phone, your calls will be answered by an operator with a customized company greeting. In addition, your mail will be handled by administrative staff and you may reserve our professionally decorated meeting room and conference room for important appointments.
Although co-working instead of telecommuting adds the ability to have a specific space for working, these organizations often strive to maintain a casual, free-flowing vibe that may not be appropriate for the professional attitude you want to portray to your clients. With a virtual office package, you are able to depict your business as well-established, professional, and polished – exactly what you need to grow your company.
