We’ll be posting many more case studies within the next few weeks answering the question: How can your New York Virtual Office service help my growing business? Doug and Suzanne are the latest to share their virtual office success stories. They should be this site within a couple of weeks.

As a reflection – if you haven’t opened your virtual office yet – you may be running your business from Chicago, Moscow, Mississippi or Hong Kong. With a virtual office service only you will know you are not located in New York. Your business will have an actual street address in an actual Corporate Office Business Center. Not an obscure PO Box or a fake suite number in a mailbox operation (BEWARE OF THOSE WHO CLAIM TO BE VIRTUAL OFFICES BUT ARE IN FACT MAILBOXES!). If a one of your clients show up at our office, they will be greeted by a receptionist in a pleasant and professional workplace in the trendy Flatiron District. Right on Broadway! Yup – THAT Broadway. THE Broadway! Having a physical New York City office address on Broadway can help bolster your business image. Everyone knows Broadway! It’s an instantly recognizable address!

When you need to meet with your clients, we will be ready for you! With meeting space located directly at your virtual office address. (Please keep in mind that you may be using the address virtually, but it’s a full fledged brick and mortar operation!) The meeting space is equipped with a computer workstation with all the latest software and a nice big flat screen monitor; wifi internet connection, so you can connect directly with your laptop, internet phone, or other wireless device; a maple toned conference table with black leather seating for 5; a 4? x 6? whiteboard, with a colorful variety of markers and eraser; easel with a pad – you can use the easel for your presentation or use the Post-it brand easel pad with plethora of presentation markers; stereo speakers and an 84? x 84? projection screen. Have your presentation on your laptop? Then we have a state of the art projector available for you to project on our 9? x 9? screen. All of the artwork in our facilities are by a world renowned artist. You’ve seen his work!

While you are at the office, you will have a knowledgeable administrative assistant assigned to your meeting to assist with administrative support, supplies, technical help, digital projector setup, printing, copying, water service, catering, lunch recommendations, car service and transportation booking, etc.

You and your business are in good hands – VH International Business Solutions has been doing this since 1990.  Checkout the Case Study category on our blog to see all of our Virtual Office Case Studies.

It’s no secret that small business operators often try to make themselves look bigger. It’s a matter of survival really. Corporate clients are often reluctant to deal with a one person business, particularly one that appears to be run from home or purely online.

Many online and home based business operators have only a post office box at best – and this can raise doubt as to their credibility – no one works out of a box. Prospective clients who find your business online will often first look to see if you have a street address. If you don’t, it raises the concern in their mind that if you don’t do the right thing by them, you can ignore their communications and they have no means of getting hold of you. It’s enough to make them leave your site and search for competitors who do have a street address.

There’s no doubt about it – having a street address gives your business credibility.

Likewise, corporate folk can be reluctant to deal with a one-person business because there’s a perception that if you were successful, surely you’d be bigger!

If you don’t want to work from a professional office address or you simply can’t justify the expense of renting city office space, but you need the credibility of having an office address then a virtual office in a major city can be the perfect answer.

A New York virtual office from VH International Business Solutions can give you the appearance and credibility of a larger business at a cost of less than $30 a month. And you can still work from home, wherever that may be! Your virtual office will forward mail and telephone messages to you.

If your business is based in the country – or even overseas – and you already have a street address, you can give your business a boost by adding a New York City office address.

When the cost of a New York virtual office from VH International Business Solutions for an entire month is about the same as one good meal, and it could improve your business turnover, it’s difficult to come up with a reason not to give it a go!

It’s going to be a big year for you! You’ve decided it’s time to step up and into your own small home based business – but you want to make sure you get it right so you don’t suffer financially, right? It’s common knowledge that many small business start-ups fail quite quickly, and home based businesses are no exception. There are many reasons why home based businesses fail. Here are just two things that can contribute to the failure of a home based business:

Inability to attract clients – particularly corporate ones – due to a perception of the business as a small home based operation;
Poor customer service including a failure to respond to prospective clients in a timely and professional manner, leading to a loss of business;

If you’ve done your market research and you’re confident you have sufficient funds to survive the early growth stages of your business you’re well on the way to success. The next step is to ensure that your business appears professional and that you’re able to attract good clients and communicate with them in a professional manner. A NYC virtual office, from VH International Business Solutions, can help you with that – and from as little as $25 a month!

With a NYC virtual office you can:

Have a physical NYC office address for your business. The address can be used on your business cards and clients can send mail to you at the address. Any walk in clients will be able to leave a message for you at our staffed reception area.
Have a New York telephone number. Calls to your NYC virtual office number can be forwarded to you or to a message bank. Alternatively, you can arrange to have a live operator answer all your calls during business hours and take messages personally.
Arrange meetings or presentations at your New York location – we have meeting rooms and offices available for short term hire at inexpensive rates. That means that when you need to be “at the office” physically, you can be.

You might be years away from being able to afford office rental in New York – and perhaps you don’t aspire to that at all – but a NYC virtual office, from VH International Business Solutions, can give you many of the benefits of a great office address without the expense, or the need to travel to the office!

A virtual office can be stated as a blend of both off-site live communication and address services that permit the users to reduce the cost of traditional office while maintaining business professionalism at the same time. A virtual office can escape all expenses of a traditional office. The concept of virtual office evolved from the old maildrop and executive suites industry, but due to its inflexibility it did not work well with various business models. This has actually spurred various companies to offer international virtual office services that maintain the image of a traditional, expensive office.

An international virtual office may actually facilitate your business to grow and by establishing such a presence you will cherish a physical office address containing an international flavor. It is to be kept in mind that you can be located anywhere in the world, own a citizenship of any country, and yet enjoy having an office anywhere in the world. An international virtual office will not only create an effective presence in the professional environment but will also add credibility to your business.

While selecting a service provider you need to be very careful as it plays an integral role in the progress and development of the business. With a professional virtual office you can easily manage your emails, meetings contacts; documents, etc form any computer over an internet connection and a web browser. Some types of virtual offices help you to share your data efficiently in the context of work and provides all the facility to run a home based business or a company wanting to achieve business goals. Virtual offices offer offices and suites of varying sizes and combinations that are suitable accordingly to your business needs and have the flexibility of expanding the base when required.

Want bring your business international?

It’s easier than you think with a Manhattan virtual office from VH International Business Solutions!

Do you have big plans for your business? Of course you do! The Internet has made it easier than ever to market to a global audience so why wouldn’t you take the opportunity to expand your business? It’s a fabulous idea but many business operators have found that while they can reach prospective clients all over the world with their advertising, getting overseas clients to advance to the stage of placing an order is a different matter, particularly if you don’t have any overseas offices. Here are three of the main reasons for their reluctance:

1. People like to shop locally. This can apply to corporate clients as well as individuals.

2. When you’re ordering from an interstate or overseas business, there’s a nagging doubt that you’ll receive the product or service promptly. When you don’t have a street address people can relate to they can have difficulty forming an opinion on the size and professionalism of your business. When in doubt, they’ll revert to a local supplier.

3. Credibility – if the business is run predominantly online, is based overseas or interstate and has no street address displayed, it raises doubts as to whether it is a legitimate operation. At the very least it raises the concern that if you pay your money and your product or service doesn’t arrive there is no way of tracing the perpetrator.

Of course, setting up physical offices overseas is a major expense and one that is out of reach for the majority of business operators – but there is a viable alternative. A Manhattan virtual office from VH International Business Solutions is your answer. Starting from just $25 a month you can have a Manhattan office. You’ll be able to use the prestigious office address, and have mail sent to your Manhattan address and forwarded to you. You can even take advantage of a Manhattan phone number that diverts to your number or to a message service. Live call answering is also available for your overseas Manhattan office! And if you’re ever in the situation where you need to meet clients in Manhattan, you’ll be able to book office space to use at your physical Manhattan office address.

If you’re planning to go international, a Manhattan virtual office will get you off to a great start without costing you a fortune.

How can a Virtual Office help you?

Case Study: Suzanne
Type of Business: International Business Consultant
Location: Dubai, UAE; USA
Services: New York Virtual Office Business Address Rental, Mail Handling, Overseas Mail Forwarding, 212 Manhattan Phone with Email Forwarding of Messages

Suzanne is an international business consultant.  She was contracted over three years ago with an offer she couldn’t refuse by a company in Dubai. The only problem was that she would have to be in Dubai within the end of the month for a few months at first with the understanding that she would eventually have to relocate there for a contractual 3-year term.

Suzanne immediately started to work on her temporary move. She was overwhelmed with the necessary steps to take, knowing that she only had a couple of weeks to get her ducks in a row before her initial 3-month stint in Dubai.

Advised by her business associates, Suzanne turned to VH International Business Solutions for help. She opened a New York Virtual Office and a 212 New York phone number with email forwarding of incoming voice messages. Her initial instructions were to have her mail forwarded sporadically and on demand to Dubai during her temporary stay; then once a month after she made her 3-year relocation.

Having no time to get in touch with everyone on her contact list, Suzanne opted to have all of her mail forwarded to her new New York office address. She also hired a property manager to work on the sub-rental of her residence and moving her belongings into storage.

Within 6 weeks of opening her account, she emailed VH International Business Solutions’ customer service department to request to have her first batch of mail forwarded to her in Dubai. Knowing that there were many important documents having to do with her permanent relocation, she requested to have her first batch of mail forwarded via courier. To Suzanne’s delight, her package arrived safety and within a few days after leaving New York.

Suzanne’s 3-year project in Dubai is coming to an end – and she’s getting ready to move back to the States within a few months. She still gets her pack of mail from VH International Business Solutions once a month.

Suzanne is thrilled with the level of service received and still can’t believe how easy it was to manage her presence in the United States, while still being on the other side of the world.

Sadly, yet understandably, we’ll only have Suzanne as a virtual office client for just few more months after she moves back to the United States. It was a pleasure having her as a client and are equally excited to continually serve the additional 2 clients she has since referred to VH International Business Solutions.

Thank you Suzanne, and good luck.
