When Should Your Business Move from a Traditional Office to a Washington Virtual Office?

Written by Metro Admin | 12/13/2010

With the economy still recovering slowly, business owners are looking for every possible way to trim their budgets. One option that is increasing in popularity is transitioning from a traditional office to a Washington Virtual Office, which offers the same features and conveniences at a lower rate.

Before making the move, however, there are a few questions that you should ask yourself:

  • Is your product something that customers or clients need to visit the office to view or receive? For example, if your business involves selling robots, and your showroom is used for conducting demonstrations for potential clients, you might be better served in keeping your traditional office location or utilizing affordable on-demand DC Office Space.
  • If, however, your company is involved in consulting or a similar business, where most of the service is provided by telephone or online communications, a Washington Virtual Office will enable you to conduct business successfully, while at the same time reducing your expenses.
  • What are some of the issues and concerns that your staff or executives are currently experiencing? Would relocation the office resolve these issues and increase productivity and boost morale?
  • How would the transition from traditional office space to virtual office affect your business, overall? Would the addition of an office located in the capitol attract potential clients and customers, or is the appeal of your business based on its small-town, home-like feel?

Metro Office’s Washington Virtual Offices are located in three key areas around the city, each adjacent to a specific section of business: government offices and the White House, the International community and the heart of the business corridors. Each office location gives businesses and individuals a range of customizable office options, complete with all the essential technology for conducting and increasing your business.
