Telsec Business Centres Inc.

I recently attended a business networking event and was surprised at the fact that fellow attendees were really interested in the address that companies had on their business cards.  My current business card does not have a mailing address on it.

While I am a writer and webmaster for Telsec, I am also a client. I have a shared office on the 18th floor at 1 Yonge Street. I did not think it was important to put a mailing address on my business cards for my company, but I was proved wrong at this business networking event.

Many of the attendees to this event wanted to know where I had my office.  I took this as a chance to do some research. I told half of the people who asked that I worked from my home and half I told that I have an office at 1 Yonge Street.  I recorded which potential clients I told that I work from home and the ones I told I had an office space Toronto at Telsec.  I got more calls from those companies who I told that I had my Toronto office space located at 1 Yonge Street than those that I told I had a home office. When I followed up with the companies who contacted me after telling them I had an office at a great downtown location, they told me that was the reason they choose to contact me.

When I surveyed the results, I found that people chose to contact my for my services because I had a prestigious business address.

You make your own choices. I know that I now have to tell my potential clients where my office is located.

Why have a PO Box as your business address?

Your clients can read through that and if they are like most informed consumers they will check out your address and see if you ever go there.

Your business address has to have prestige and be recognizable as a business address to your clients. As a consumer you know that you like to deal with a business that has a prestigious address, so why does your business not have one?  Having your business address at 1 Yonge Street tells your clients that you have a Toronto office space at a key address in Toronto.

Your Toronto office space for rent can also be  a virtual office that appears to your clients as a real office and not just a PO Box. Let Telsec work with you and your office space budget, to find the right office solution for your business. You want an office space solution that fits your business needs and shows your clients that your are not just a PO Box.

While writing this blog, I realized that Toronto office space management is similar to WordPress web site content management. With Telsec Toronto Office Space, you generate your business content and they take care of the back office management, similarly with WordPress, you create your website content and WordPress takes care of the back end of your website and manages your content for you.

Traditionally with static html website, companies required employees with knowledge of html and specialized software to operate the company web site. Now with WordPress and other web based content management programs, no specially trained staff or expensive software is required to give companies an effective web presence.  Using content management software will save you a lot of money on the expense of specific task employees.

Having a traditional Toronto office rental required companies to have support staff to run the office, as well as to answer and route telephone calls to the appropriate person.  Telses’s friendly support staff and professional receptionist, works hard to make your office run smoothly so that you do not need to hire your own office support staff. You get a well operated office environment without the hassles. Having a Telsec Toronto office space will also save you a great deal of money on general task employees and allow you to keep key employees that are specifically related to your business.

Just as you can get premium plugins and add on applications for wordpress, Telsec’s office space Toronto, also offers premium office services such as word processing, bookkeeping, and quick printing services, but Telsec’s resourceful staff can even help you set up a web site and your WordPress content manegment system.

You do not always need to be in the office to take your office calls.

Not being in the office does not mean you cannot be contacted by clients, especially clients wanting to give you new or more business. Your client can be connected to you without knowing that you are out of your Toronto office space. This is ideal when you only want to be reached during regular business hours and you do not want to give your cell phone number or home office number. You could be working from the cottage and only wishing to take calls in the morning business hours and to be transfered to voice mail in the afternoon. If you are going to be away or on vacation and only wish to have calls sent to voice mail, your Telsec receptionist can inform callers that you are away and offer to send their call to your voice mail.

When your client calls your office phone number, Telsec’s professional receptionist will answer your clients call and route it to where you are. Whether you are in the office, at home, at the cottage, or even on the road, you can simply call the receptionist and have her update how your calls are to be handled.

It is not just your calls that can follow you when you are out of the office, but your mail and faxes can follow you too. Telsec can arrange to deliver your mail to where you are located, so you do not have to come into the office while doing business away from the office.

These are services normally requested by virtual office clients, but they can also be arranged for business office centre clients who are not always going to be in the office.
