Small Office Alternative

Executive Suites 

Executive Suites are an excellent option for smaller companies or branches.  Many companies, large and small, choose to operate their business or satellite offices from an Executive Suite. Executive Suites are essentially shared offices with services provided by a management firm. They are also known as an Office Business Center or serviced offices and are a great way for small companies to get off to a fast and low risk start and a great way for a fast growing company to have the flexibility for rapid growth. In an Executive Suite, you can focus on your business, while the Executive Suite operator handles the details of managing your office. Most Executive Suites also offer a Virtual Office Program, as well.

• Private offices with utilities and janitorial included

Benefits

Executive Suites give you the added flexibility of short term or long term obligations - both from a planning and a financial statement point of view. Other benefits include:

Convenience

A small office near home or the people you do business with every day. One office (120-150 square feet) and corporate suites of several offices (up to 1,000 square feet) are often available.

Cost

Attractive, professional office accommodations at roughly 20-30% of the cost of equipping and staffing conventional office space.

Flexibility

Full or part time accommodations are generally available (hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, annually). Corporate business identity programs are also popular providing you with a professional address, telephone secretary and conference room by appointment.

No capital investment

There is no need to buy or lease office equipment or furniture. Private offices can be completely furnished as well.  Both the furniture and equipment will most likely be a much higher quality than the normal small business would have.

Control of operating costs.

Executive Suites usually offer state-of-the-art business support services which are billed to clients if and as needed using published Industry Production Standards guidelines

Higher productivity 

By leaving the operation of your office to a staff of trained professionals, you and your company personnel can concentrate on managing and marketing your business, not on administrative details. This administrative savings can account for up to 20% of an executive's time.

Enhanced technology and services

Most Executive Suites provide access to "information highway" technology and first-class concierge handling of business needs. Some examples of enhanced services available from suite to suite are full service travel arrangements, videoconferencing, competitive long distance rates, calling cards, mobile messaging and paging, desktop publishing and project design, telemarketing, catering, law libraries and paralegal, computer networking, consulting, training, and more. You have to ask to find the right suite for your business needs!
