NYC Co-Working Space Benefits

For years, companies have taken advantage of the incredible pace of technology. More and more people are finding that they do not need to work from an office, believing that they can work from “anywhere.” The solopreneur trusts that they can work from home just as efficiently as they can from traditional office space. In many regards, this is correct, but a home office does come with drawbacks.

Growing just as fast as the technology industry, the US workforce is realizing that NYC co-working space benefits the best of both worlds. Coworking provides a cost effective solution that allows the employee to, not only work from their home office, but from a professional workspace with staff to rely on when needed. Here are a few benefits to a NYC co-working space.

Get A Business Address That Elevates Your Image

If you are one of the 38 million home based businesses in the US, you are aware of the convenience and cost effectiveness of working from home. But is your home address or a PO Box the most professional way to present your business? And what do you do when you need to meet with a client?

With the vast array of services that an executive workplace has to offer, it is easy and cost effective for you to continue working from home while supported by a company such as Workspace by Rockefeller Group. Services, such as virtual offices, meeting rooms and offices for the day can give you the cache of a professional address at minimum costs.

A Staff To Assist You When Needed

73% of all small businesses are sole practitioners. That means that one person is responsible for all company tasks, including administrative and office management needs as well. This can make for a long day. The staff of an executive workplace can make your day a little easier with the support of their staff.

Short Term Commitment

70% of all home-based businesses are successful within the first three years. Even with such a high rate of success, there is still a lot of uncertainty when starting your business. You could happily remain a sole practitioner or skyrocket to 30 employees quicker then expected. Before you sign a multi year lease, consider a more practical approach with a short-term solution.

 Networking

Active networking is considered to be one of the most valuable ways to grow your business. Of course, there are several networking groups to help with this, but consider surrounding yourself with likeminded business professionals and you don’t have to go out to find them, they are right there beside you. Working from home does not give you the ability to get to know other business professionals on a daily basis.  On the other hand, working in Rockefeller Center, you are surrounded by a great variety of bars and restaurants to meet up with other professionals.  Not to mention access to Rockefeller Center’s Zo Lounge.

Executive Workplaces Are Managed by Professionals

If you are one of the almost 40% of workers that work alone, you have to consider your time as your most valuable commodity. In a NYC co-working space, you are supported by an administrative and management team that is overseeing your office so you can focus on your business.
