What is a Virtual Office?

A virtual office gives clients access to a professional business identity including everything from location and address, telephone service with calls answered by a live receptionist, a professional place to meet clients and resources your company and employees have access to. With a virtual office you get the image and resources of having a full time office but are able do it on a home-based budget. The plans are perfect for a professional business or practice that can operate effectively from home, but needs to project a higher quality image and have access to the resources of a bigger company. This option does not provide you with a full time, dedicated space.

What is an Executive Suite?

Executive suites are private, individual offices that you can set up your own way- with your own furniture and décor. In addition, companies are provided additional services including internet access, phones, receptionists’ to greet clients and answer phones by company name, access to conference rooms, kitchens, private meeting rooms, and much more. Companies can get offices setup immediately with easy and flexible terms as short as 90 days. Not only can you obtain immediate occupancy, you are able to expand or downsize your business on short notice, giving the flexibility not available in the conventional office market.

Most importantly small business are given access to a professional office image and you can have attractive, comfortable office space at approximately 60-70% of the cost of equipping and staffing a conventional office. There is no need to buy or lease office equipment, reception area and conference room furniture, or kitchen and work area furnishings.

What are Flex Suites?

Virtuoso is unique in that we can provide Flex Suites or mini-suites. Designed for our clients that grow and wish to expand or for larger companies that wish to take advantage of the benefits of an executive suite, Flex Suites are multi-office executive suites that range from 600 square feet to over 1,000 square feet.

Are executive suites more expensive than conventional real estate?

No, not when you look at total operating costs. Quite often people have in their minds one number, price per square foot and they try to calculate in terms of that, but that’s not the full picture, when you look at what it costs to run an office space beyond rent including the cost of utilities, janitorial, receptionists, office equipment, telephone, internet and more. With executive suites, companies operate at approximately 60-70% of the cost of equipping and staffing a conventional office, helping to protect cash flow.

Virtuoso can save you lots of time and money over conventional space alternatives. There are 5 main areas of savings:

Less Space. You pay on much less square footage- about 60% less on average. Already included in pricing at Virtuoso is your access to all of the shared space areas- reception area, conference rooms, patio, kitchen area, and more! All told you’ll have use of over 2500 sf of additional space outside of your private space. The average 1000 sf user only needs about 300 sf at Virtuoso.

Less Overhead. You completely avoid all non-rent office operating costs which for most small office users is about 60% of total office costs (rent is only about 40% of total office costs). Examples include: Administrative/Reception wages/taxes/benefits, utilities, janitorial, technical support for phones/internet, equipment costs, hi-speed internet access, and more. At Virtuoso you get the equivalent of over $6,000/mo worth of office overhead covered for you.

Less Up Front Costs. You save tremendously on upfront/move-in costs. All you have to do is move your computers and furniture in, everything else is here for you. Reception furniture, conference room furniture, artwork, plants, fax machines, refrigerator, microwave, coffee machines, phone systems, phone sets, phone and fax lines, hi-speed internet, Cat 5 cabling, routers, switches, firewalls. It’s all here ready for you to plug into.

Less Commitment. Instead of signing a 3-5 year lease that could easily not meet your needs in a year or two, you can stay more flexible with Virtuoso. Paying rent on space you no longer need or have outgrown can be very expensive. Trying to sublease space can also be expensive and a huge hassle.

Higher Quality. Finally, the typical small office user does not even have access to Class A buildings and locations because Landlords of those buildings don’t want to break their space down below 2500 SF. So the smaller office user has to settle for inferior locations and inferior building quality which has a negative impact on business image (how your prospects and customers see you) and employee productivity (how much people enjoy their working environment).

What are the advantages of Virtuoso over other executive offices?

Location - Our location is in a prestigious business area, but in a low-rise, stand-alone class A office building right off the freeway rather than on a floor of a high-rise. In addition we occupy the entire building giving our clients lower costs as well as greater visibility and more convenience such as underground parking, easier street level building access and a more relaxed, entrepreneurial small business environment.

Quality - Our building is new and of high quality construction. It is an architecturally attractive building that has won prestigious design awards. Because we operate the entire building, we controlled every aspect of design and quality of finishes. Our many window offices have large windows with spectacular mountain and city views.
