Many advantages to a virtual office and company

October 4, 2006 by  

I came across a great article in last Sunday’s Boston Globe called “Virtual Office is what you make it” talking about the trend of working in a virtual office and how for many entrepreneurs and startups they grow their businesses this way from the ground up.

“The future is likely to be the age of virtual businesses,” writes Anita Campbell, founder of Small Business Trends. “Forget three guys in a garage — that was your father’s startup. Today it’s three people spread out across the country or even across continents, each in their home offices or back porches with laptops, mobile phones, and WiFi.”

Check out the article for some interesting insight on virtual companies.

    I know how it is, only that I use my Virtual Office up in my attic. It provides a real perspective over the world, even the virtual one. Good post here, anyway!

    I am agree with Anita Campbell : virtual office is the future of the work's world. work in better conditions where you want doesn't mean don't work, on the contrary. I think it permits a better efficiency.

    Absolutely – it is a common myth that working remotely or from home means people work less. In fact the contrary is often true – people work more or harder. Often it is because they want to prove they can be trusted to work offsite or in other cases it is simply due to being more tethered and having the work always close at hand. When I first started I was more than willing to spend time that was normally spent sitting in traffic being productive and getting more work done!
