There have been a lot of common misconceptions of a serviced office, and it’s time that we change how people see it.
With the new normal changing our perceptions of how we work, a serviced office can still be of use in many different ways other than simply being an office. Being in a coworking space, a serviced office does have its differences from coworking. Unlike a seat in the common coworking area where you share the space with individuals from different companies, a serviced office in Acceler8 is a private suite within the coworking space dedicated to your team and a handful of other additional benefits such as the use of the business address, office furniture, and a dedicated phone line.
Serviced offices have the flexibility to be more than a regular office where you sit down at your own workspace and work on your personal devices. As office capacities are limited for safety reasons, now is the time to be innovative with your space and discover the different possibilities for repurposing the space, whether it be for the day or long term.
Here are some other ways your business could make use of a serviced office space!
Your company’s own studio
Convert your office space into your company’s own studio! With society recently favoring digitalization, such as online events and marketing, having your own venue for product shoots, webinar filming, and voice recording helps your business adapt right away. You could also opt to set up a showroom for possible customers to see your business’ products. Having fewer coworkers in the office would make it easier to move things around and create the ideal setup. With your own serviced office, you maximize your asset of space while eliminating distractions, clutter, and added expenses.
Virtual meetings, interviews, and classes
Sometimes, communicating online could be challenging, especially for an extended duration. Now that classes, meetings, and interviews are mostly done online, it’s key for students, educators, applicants, and colleagues to have a quiet place with fast and stable internet. You always want to be able to put your best foot forward and communicate effectively, which would be difficult with choppy internet and an unprofessional background. A private office could be a place to attend these classes, interviews, or online meetings without encountering difficulties or distractions that you find elsewhere.
A physical meeting room and workshop venue
While meeting online through apps such as Zoom or Google Meets has become the new norm, there are also still some meetings that are best done face-to-face. We can all agree that communicating in person is much easier than doing so online. Moreover, workshops are also a great tool to help your employees gain the skills needed to adapt to the new normal. when it comes to online or physical workshops. Using your company’s own serviced office space as a venue is another opportunity to save on expenses from renting out an external venue. Just make sure that you practice proper safety etiquette such as social distancing at all times!
Storage Space
With office capacities being limited, it could be difficult to find a space where you could store your business inventory as teams are all working separately. Why not use your serviced offices as a place to store all of these things with all the vacant space? Storing them in your office could easily be done as it wouldn’t get in the way of anyone working in the serviced office while also being accessible to all employees when needed.
Despite all the setbacks that the pandemic has caused, all we need is a change in perspective. It is important for businesses to maximize all the assets that they have even during a time where offices are expected to be closed down. Now is the best time to think outside the box and make use of your offices in other ways!
