VIRTUAL OFFICE IN BELFAST

VIRTUAL OFFICE v PHYSICAL OFFICE

A virtual office in Belfast would provide a much more affordable option to a physical office.  With a physical office there are so many costs to consider. How much office space is required for example. When you have a virtual office in Belfast it means that you can spend your hard earned money reinvesting in your growing business. Opening a business is a very exciting yet stressful time.  Unfortunately, new business owners are facing ever increasing costs, especially energy costs.  Ultimately, keeping costs down is so important and a virtual office provides a much more economical solution.

COSTS TO CONSIDER

With a physical office, do you buy or rent?  Then you need to consider rates which are for the most part a crippling monthly overhead.  To add to the mix, we now have huge energy and fuel bills.    Below is a list of costs to take into consideration when going for a physical office.

1. Monthly rent or mortgage bills
2. Monthly rates bill
3. Energy bills(electricity/gas)
4. Maintenance Costs
5. Phone & Internet Charges
6. Commuting costs (Fuel) for you and your staff

WHAT IS A VIRTUAL OFFICE?

With the advances in technology over the last couple of decades, a virtual office address for new businesses is proving to be the most economical solution.  Understandably many people have not heard of the concept of a virtual office address. Basically a virtual office is an address provided by others, most likely in a city location that business owners can use as their registered office address or main office.  It’s a mailbox rental service for businesses.  The city location offers prestige to the business. For example, small crafting businesses could actually be producing their beautiful creations in a tiny workshop miles away from anywhere with a possibly poor road network and delivery services.  Their workshop simply needs a letterbox.  Before going to Companies House online company registration page, they can sign up to Lets Letterbox  We can provide them with a Belfast City mailbox address that they can use as their registered office address.  When they sign in to Gov.UK they will provide the new address from Lets Letterbox.  All statutory mail from HMRC and Companies House will be sent to this address.

MAIL FORWARDING

On signing up with Lets Letterbox, the new business can decide how they wish to receive their mail. There are 3 options that they can choose from:

1. Scanned & emailed
2. Postal Forwarding
3. Office Collection

When there is a mail drop for a customer we can use Option 1 where we open the mail , scan the mail and email it to the customer.  We can also simply scan the envelope and email a copy of that to the customer and the customer can decide if they would like us to open the mail or not.  It’s up to the customer.  When the customer chooses Option 2 we simply send the mail by post to the postal address nominated by the customer in their application form.  If they choose Option 3 the customer can make arrangements with our staff to collect their mail at our offices.

PO BOX ALTERNATIVE

Our cost effective virtual office address is similar to a PO Box address but we are actually based in Belfast.  We have a physical presence at our offices in Belfast.  With this we mean that when a postal delivery is made for one of our customers, to our offices in Belfast, there is always someone on hand to collect the mail or parcels.  This is a requirement from HMRC and Companies House.

SUBSTANTIAL SAVINGS WITH A VIRTUAL OFFICE
