You don’t have to move to traditional space or taking on more space than you need. You can grow right inside this space.

Benefits:

  • Less financial risk. You are able to grow your business without having a large capital investment. In traditional space you have to commit a lot of money into office space deposits, lobby furniture, conference room table and chairs, phone systems, data networking infrastructure.
  • Business insurance is not required. Here’s something that often goes over looked but when you’re leasing traditional space you might be required to obtain business insurance that is rated AV-X. That can be costly and is money that could be used elsewhere when starting up a business.
  • No lengthy and complicated lease terms. Negotiating a lease with a landlord can be as fun of an experience as buying a car from an auto dealer. Lease documents can also be tricky to understand.
  • Economic climate: Given today’s economic climate, it makes good sense to not get over committed in leasing office space. With shared office space, you do not need to sign a long 3-5 year long term lease. You can go with a 6 or 12 month lease.
  • Flexibility: You have the ability to grow or downsize. You pay for what you use and not one square foot more than you need.
