Virtual assistants
Companies like Victoria-based Ace Virtual Assistance offer virtual office support for you and your business. They specialise in taking care of all your administrative and secretarial needs. A virtual assistant is an independent contractor providing secretarial and administrative support from their own home. They work using the latest technologies, to provide immediate professional support to busy entrepreneurs and business managers.
A virtual assistant is just like having your very own personal assistant, only virtual.
Owener and virtual assistant Jodi Gibson, says: “I pride myself on providing a consistent, reliable service that is cost effective and meets the varying needs of my clients and giving them that leading professional edge.”
Virtual receptionists
The receptionist answering service from OfficeHQ gives your callers a true receptionist experience without having an another member of staff in your office, full time. And it’s not just a messaging service; all your calls are answered by friendly receptionists with your custom greeting and transferred to you wherever you are. You may be at home, on your mobile, at a hotel, or at a client site. You can update your contact numbers at any time online. You can also add and update notes for your dedicated receptionist.
Once your caller has been greeted, the receptionist will call you on your pre-selected divert numbers and, if you elect to take the call, your caller will be instantly patched through to you. Alternatively a text message will be sent to you by SMS and/or email, detailing the message left by the caller, and their contact information, allowing you to return the call at a more convenient time.
The options available are endless. It takes a bit of thinking outside the square (or you could say outside the office!), but a lot of these services are perfect for SMEs, especially in a tough economic climate.

I think for small business owners these offices are like dream comes true. I am also running a small business and after renting office provided by http://www.valleyhq.com/ I am very satisfied and feel like I am able to increase my business now.
As a Business Development Manager for an outsourcing company, I have seen on countless occasions the benefits SME’s can gain through adopting the very principals listed in this article.
Just because an SME does not have the investment capital to purchase or rent larger premises, does not mean they cannot grow.
By outsourcing various office functions, the business can continue to grow, while ones premises do not.
