Boost Your Business
With a Virtual Office

A virtual office is a service that enables you to assign a physical location as your business address. A virtual office address can boost the legitimacy of your market presence if you tend to work remotely, or it can help your business to expand as you trial a new location. A virtual office also provides you with essential services to run your business smoothly, such as mail handling, call answering, and access to meeting rooms.

Using your personal address as your business address can create issues, especially as your company starts to grow. Using your home address may look unprofessional, which could impact the perceived prestige of your brand. 

You’d have to advertise your home address on your website, marketing collateral, online directories, invoices, and your company social media profiles; this can affect your ability to separate your personal life from work, and could even encourage customers to visit your home address. A virtual office address allows you to separate your work from your home life, and can be used as you see fit.

There are many benefits of using a virtual office address, including:

• Work remotely or abroad – Manage your business from anywhere with a virtual office space. All businesses in the UK need a legitimate mailing address. Our virtual business address service allows those who live abroad to establish a UK presence, helping to legitimise their brand and receive communications wherever they’re physically based.
• Business address credibility – Customer perception is important. Boost the credibility of your business and your brand with a legitimate virtual business address that suggests experience and prestige.  
• Protect your privacy – Choosing a virtual office address protects your personal details from public knowledge and accessibility. Protect your privacy and brand image with a virtual business address that separates your work life from your home. 
• Save money – Save money on the costly overheads associated with full-time serviced offices, such as rent, office equipment, furniture, and salaries for admin staff. A virtual office provides you with all the benefits of an office without the costs attached!
