Today, it has become easier than ever to start a business from your home, operating online. Whether you are offering an online service, running an online store on Etsy, or have built an online shop to drop ship products directly from manufacturers, there are lots of great home business ideas out there to consider.
However, one of the drawbacks of starting a business from your home address is that you don’t have a business premise or a business address to give out. This can be risky when doing things like registering for tax or providing customers with an address to which they can send product returns, as you might not want your home address to be public knowledge.
The good news is that having your own business address can help, and here’s the thing…you don’t have to own or rent a commercial property to get one!
Here are some benefits of using our business address package for your business:
Look Professional
Nothing says ‘small business’ like the business address being a home address, and it doesn’t look very professional. With our business address package, nobody needs to know that you are actually running the business from your living room. You can have a professional-looking business address that customers and other businesses can use to get in touch with you.
Stay Private
While the chances are that nothing bad will happen if your home address is out there as your business address, it can still be quite risky. With a business address, you get to keep your home address private and your personal information safe while still making sure that your business has an address to which parcels, letters and other communication can be sent to.
Change Location
If you are running a business from home and want to target customers in a specific location, then a business address can help.
With three centres across the East Midlands, there are no limits on where you can set up your virtual address. If you’re running a business or an online service and want to get into a market where there is more demand for what you offer, even if it’s not your immediate area, then a business address is the best way to do this.
With your business address in a different area, you can perform local SEO for the areas you want to target, while running your business from elsewhere.
Easy to Manage
A business address is very easy to manage. It can also be a great way to help with organisation, as your business-related mail will be sent to your business address where it can be forwarded to you by our friendly reception team. That way, you won’t be getting mail addressed to your home throughout the week.
You can choose whether you collect your mail, have it sent out daily, weekly or monthly – or the team can open it and scan over more pressing documents as and when you need it.
With our reception team, there is always someone available to receive your mail on site too – never miss an important delivery again!
