This blog is intended to lend assistance to companies looking for Toronto office space, as well as offering virtual office space Toronto, to small businesses and home based businesses.
Downtown Toronto is really becoming home for so many people. Today I had a meeting not far from the St. Lawrence Market, so I parked my car at the “Green P” parking lot just down the street from the market instead of my regular place behind my downtown office space Toronto.
After my meeting, I decided to leave my car at this downtown parking lot and walk to my downtown office. While I was walking this short distance from the St Lawrence Market, I noticed how many condos that were near by, as well as all the ones that were under construction. It used to be they wanted to tear down the Gardner Expressway to open up the view of the waterfront, now that is a mute point due to the condos that are even taller than this elevated roadway.
As I was looking at all these downtown Toronto condominiums, I started to wonder how many of those condo owners or residence are self employed and how many would rather have a Toronto office space downtown, rather than running their businesses out of their home. For many people who want to live and work downtown, having a part-time office or a Toronto shared office would be ideal. They would have an office space to work in outside of their home, as well as access to Toronto meeting rooms, modern office equipment, and a professional receptionist to handle their calls as to their instructions.
The more I thought of living close to my downtown office space Toronto, the more I realized that my need to own a car would greatly decrease. If I could walk to my Toronto office space everyday, I would only need to rent a car when I wanted to go out of town. I blogged a while back about Zip cars and now they are starting to look more and more as an alternative to automobile ownership, especially for those who work and live downtown Toronto.
Do you have home office productivity concerns? Are you worried that you are not getting enough done by working at home? While some people flourish when working from home, others need the structure of an office space Toronto to really get into working.
Telecommuting and working from home, may or may not work for you, or it may work for you some of the time, but not always. Everyone is different and everyones work flow is different. Some people need to work out of an office every day to be the most productive, while others may find they only need to be in the office a few days a week or a few hours every day.
Todays big business is trying to get the most out of their office space at the lowest possible costs, so they hire specialized space planning consultants to do space-use evaluations. Just like larger businesses and corporations, medium and small businesses are starting to use space-use evaluations (without the expensive consultants) to determine how to get the most out of the office space they have. One such strategy is shared office space and working part time from home. Some small businesses have found they do not need to hire the expensive consultants, they choose to find space they can afford, but not always use. They look to experts like Telsec Office Business Centres, to help find the office solutions that works best for them.
Some companies look at the $225 per month Toronto shared office. This really works for those companies that need a physical office, but do not use it full time. For $225 you can have a Toronto shared office complete with personalized telephone answering by a live receptionist, access to boardrooms and meeting rooms, complimentary tea and coffee, and so much more.
I was talking with a client this week about designing their new web site and business cards. They did not want to put their home address on the site or their cards, but instead were considering a P.O. Box, until they found an office. I promptly told them that a P.O. Box looks more suspect than not putting an address at all.
I then told them of the virtues of a Toronto Virtual Office packages that would allow them to not only have a prestigious business address, but also a Toronto telephone number with a live professional receptionist answering his calls. I told him the best part of signing up for a Virtual Office with Telsec, is when he decides he needs an office, he can upgrade to being an Toronto office space client without the hassle of changing his address or telephone number.
A Toronto Virtual Office is a great way for a new company or a company that is just entering the Toronto market. Your company can grow without changing your address. Once your company is established and want to rent office space in Toronto, you can simply upgrade to a Toronto shared office or a private office space. As your company grows, you can expand to a larger team space or multiple offices. When you feel that you have outgrown the available office space facilities, you can find other space and remain a virtual office client, even keep your primary address as 1 Yonge Street and telephone number. Even with a new location, as a virtual office client you can still have your calls answered by Telsec’s professional receptionist who will externally route the calls directly to the right individual in your company.
Many companies just like yours have experienced the downturn in the economy and have chosen to downsize their offices and move their operations to Telsec Office Business Centres. If you are a company with outside sales people and employees who can telecommute from home, an office business center is right for you and right for your office budget.
