Virtual office

Virtual office creates illusion of physical presence of the company at this business center: the client is given business the address (often prestigious on which there are large companies), the staff of business center processes correspondence and sends it to the client, most often in the place of its actual stay. It is possible to bring together such office as the designer, having added to business to the address call acceptance service, having made a reservation for the server, to have the necessary rooms in short-term lease. At the same time physically the command is in other location, but this fact if does not disappear, then is not advertized.

At service of incoming calls, the professional secretary (with support in English) answers on the set script, if necessary it transfers a call to mobile, city and Skype number. If the customer of services wants to meet the contractor in his territory, then for the mezzanine board it is possible to lease negotiation.

"First of all, the service of virtual office is demanded among the companies which aim to enter the new markets or to work in several regions at once, - Bayeva Irina, the managing director of Regus company in Russia tells. - In addition to other factors, often the company is estimated on its location. Therefore, renting virtual office, the client receives the prestigious address where it is necessary for it and also administrative support, having created image of the local company, Besides, this service is convenient for the companies which have no need to support the secretary. For example, SP which should look solidly in the opinion of partners. The virtual office is especially important for an exit to foreign market".

Other case is a group of the supporters who are territorially working in different locations, is permanent in traveling and work "in fields". The virtual office can also become the first step to entry into the real market if the team of freelancers decides to create the company. The cost of lease of virtual office begins from 2000 rubles a month in Russia. For example, in Germany, the USA or other countries the service of the business address costs from 37 dollars.

Is still the option when the office is empty the most part of time and most of employees supports the flexible working schedule and office. According to the statistics real estate agencies, more and more freelancers prefer to work in the country and not to come to office to Moscow.

Employees, working at "udalenka", have more free time at the expense of logistics, there is an achievement of optimal balance between work and family. Also people are ill less often as employees will not need to reach more office, and back, they will be to pick up less infections in transport or at work. Without speaking about costs - there are no investments in lease and office services.

At the same time there are massive faults of virtual office, in comparison with normal. It is low working capacity, not all employees will be able competently to distribute time and to concentrate on the work and to show high rates of productivity. Also in the apartment there can be no workplace.

Also for effective much need collective, office power to start thought processes, to be built in a working rhythm. For office employee the house is a place of relaxation, but not concentration. One more shortcoming - virtual office cannot be the place of official company registration as lease actually does not happen.

Despite these shortcomings, "virtual office" nevertheless is the underestimated service and demand for it, as well as for flexible working solutions, will only grow. More and more companies allow employees to work where it is convenient to them: houses, in a co-working or at office. The main thing during such work – accomplishment and whether even overfulfillment of KPI. What happens quite often as the employees working in such mode are loyal to the employer.
