Atlanta Virtual Office F.A.Q.'s
What is a virtual office?
A virtual office is a package of
services that gives business owners, independent
contractors and entrepreneurs the benefits of a
traditional office without the hassle and overhead
costs, such as leasing
and maintaining an office location and paying
salary, taxes and benefits for administrative
support staff.
What services are
included in a virtual office package?
Virtual office packages are
tailored to meet the specific needs of clients,
ensuring that they only pay for what they need.
Clients can choose from mail, communications and
conference room services. Virtual office packages
can be expanded to meet the needs of growing
businesses.
What mail services are
available?
A basic mail package gives a
client access to a world-class mailing address,
which also serves as the "location" of their virtual
office. With hundreds of addresses available, a
client can choose a location right in their own
backyard or decide to raise the profile of their
business by choosing a prestigious address in an
internationally-known business center in the U.S.
and around the world.
Mail delivery and forwarding
services are also available and can be added to a
basic-mail package.
What are the benefits of
having a virtual office mailing address?
Many clients with home-based
businesses choose a prestigious local mailing
address and use it on business cards, letterhead and
other documents, giving them a professional image
and the safety of not having to use their home
address while conducting business. Also, home-based
businesses are perceived as better established and
more reputable when they have a street address
rather than a P.O. box.
Other clients use their virtual
office mailing address to give their business a
presence in anew market as they work to grow their
business. A virtual office mailing address is a
money-smart way to test new markets without the
expense of opening new traditional offices.
What communications
services are available?
With a virtual office
communications package a client receives a local or
toll-free business telephone number. Professional
receptionists answer calls using the name of the
client's company.
Receptionists can also take care of some
administrative tasks, such as setting appointments.
This service usually requires an additional fee.
What are the benefits of
having a virtual office communications package?
A business is perceived as better
established and more professional when customers and
clients are greeted by a trained receptionist,
rather than having calls answered by a machine.
Also, the additional
administrative services available through virtual
office packages help business owners focus more on
growing their businesses and less on the day-to-day
drudgery, and expense, of running an office.
What conference room
services are available?
Most virtual office providers
offer packages that include use of a conference room
at a host business center convenient to the client.
Clients typically purchase conference room time in
8-hour blocks.
What are the benefits of
conference room services?
Business owners who opt for
conference room privileges as part of their virtual
office package are spared the hassle of
setting up meetings at local coffee shops,
restaurants or even in their private homes. In
addition, business owners are perceived as more
reliable and successful when they host their
meetings in a professional conference room, rather
than the types of locations mentioned above.
How much does a virtual
office package cost?
Basic, mail-only virtual office
packages typically start at around $100 per month. A
full service
package starts at about $350 per month.
Is there a setup fee or
other commitments?
Most virtual office providers
charge a one-time setup fee of about $100 and
require a minimum commitment of 6 months.
