Say that your company has the opportunity to make some really fantastic business goals happen in Bangkok. The problem is, your company isn’t in Bangkok, it’s in New York! At this point you really can’t afford to send a complete staff over there and rent out a suitable office space, it’s impossible, so what do you do? Fortunately, there is an answer!

If you need to have a serious business presence in a city you don’t live in, but need an office, a virtual office is the way to go. A virtual office allows you to have a prestigious address in the heart of a major business district in whatever city you need one in! The virtual office gives your company the look and feel of legitimacy without all the costs of an actual physical presence. You can use the physical address your virtual office service provides along with its phone number on your business cards, as well as listing it on your company website as if it were an actual location. If you are a New York company doing business in Bangkok what could be better than demonstrating your credibility with a bona fide address there?

Local prospects and clients are wary of doing business with a company using a mobile number and a foreign address and will have more trust in your company if you have a landline number and physical address in the heart of their city. If you are a financial institution, then go with a virtual office in your target city’s financial district, if you are a tech company then make that city’s tech centre your virtual home. You can foster a very positive impression of your business by choosing a virtual office address in an area that is well-known and relevant to your business’ offerings. Plus, you will save a ton on the rent you would pay in such a prestigious locale!

Maintaining a virtual office has the big advantage of being much more cost-effective than renting or owning a traditional physical office space. You will be able to keep expenses at a minimum because you won’t need to pay for office equipment, the salary of a full-time receptionist, utilities, transportation, commuting, the heavy price of relocation, and the many other fees and costs that come with maintaining a brick and mortar office. All the money you save can then be invested back into your business!

The ability to work from anywhere in the world is the main advantage maintaining a virtual office offers your company. All your business needs is an internet connection, and it will seem as if you are really there for your customers and investors! You don’t even need to be in your company’s actual office to take care of things, you can work from your home or favourite holiday spot, your virtual office is always open for business wherever you happen to be!

If you have a virtual office in Bangkok for example, you can even become a member of the Thai Chamber of Commerce and enjoy all the benefits it confers. So, wherever you need to do business you can make sure your company maintains a real and viable presence thanks to the virtual office.
