Start the year with a virtual office

More exercise might top the list of 2024 New Year resolutions,[1] but when it comes to goals for your business, rather than joining a gym, it could be time to sign up for a virtual office.

The evolving nature of work over the past few years, accelerated by the unique circumstances of the Covid-19 pandemic, has, of course, brought transformative change.

Latest figures show 44% of UK workers are now working remotely[2] and it’s clear many businesses have embraced this idea as the ‘new norm’.

That has left businesses with a new challenge: how do you present the most professional image without a physical office space in the location of potential clients?

Meeting this challenge has fuelled the increasing popularity of virtual office solutions. A virtual office (or VO) – with mail-handling and other services attached – is a win-win because it’s as if your organisation has a real office but without the headaches.

• Create a professional image

Setting up a Landmark Space virtual office allows you to use one of our prestigious buildings as your business address, helping to create a professional image without needing a physical office space that you rent.
It sets your business apart from its competitors because using a virtual business address on your business cards, website and email increases trust in prospects and clients instead of using a home address.

• Cost savings

The next significant advantage of a virtual office address is the cost savings – hugely important if your business has limited resources.
A business address service means you don’t have to worry about paying for office heating and lighting, water, waste disposal, equipment such as desks, chairs, computers, phones and other office supplies.

• Flexible locations, flexible working hours

Using a virtual office address gives you the flexibility to expand your business to a range of new locations. And as your business grows, you can add more services to your virtual office package or scale down when necessary.
There’s also greater flexibility in working hours because with a virtual business address, you can stick to a schedule that works best for you.

This helps you and your staff to better balance work with personal circumstances, such as a disability or the need to care for the family.

• Watch your business thrive

Businesses can thrive in a virtual environment because you can tailor operations to suit your unique requirements – thereby positioning your organisation to succeed in a rapidly changing and increasingly interconnected world.

• Seamless virtual office service

Landmark offers you and your business a quick, easy and seamless service in setting up your virtual office account.

A Landmark virtual office includes a prestigious business address with mail handled on-site by our professional teams, the choice of mail collection or forwarding (standard Royal Mail charges and a handling fee apply), reception team support and bookable meeting room, day office or a day pass to our Coworking Space when required.

Depending on the location, a Landmark virtual business address costs from £75 to £125 per month. Telephone call forwarding and answering services, plus arranging for our building to be your registered trading address with Companies House, are available as upgrades.
