How would I go about making such a sweeping change to my business?&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>A: <\/strong>Yes, switching to a remote workspace provides countless benefits to the entrepreneur willing to put in the work. Making the change isn\u2019t too difficult and requires nothing more than tweaking your existing operations and shifting your focus.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although the widespread shift to remote work was on its way before the pandemic, Covid-19 managed to accelerate this shift much faster than anyone thought possible.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Approximately 1 in 4 Americans, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dallasfed.org\/-\/media\/documents\/research\/papers\/2020\/wp2017.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">more than a quarter<\/a> of the nation\u2019s workforce, continued to work from home throughout 2021.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Like it or not, switching to a remote workspace is quickly becoming the norm. With multiple studies showing an increase in productivity <a

class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Despite there being some jobs that don\u2019t work in a work-from-home environment, small business owners should feel excited about this recent transition.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not only does a remote workspace provide entrepreneurs with a way to save heaps of money on traditional business expenses like rent and office supplies, but the flexibility of a company that employs remote workers positions preps it for growth, expansion, and scalability.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As a small business owner, the cost of renting a traditional office space in conjunction with the operating costs of keeping this space stocked and functioning properly for your employees will likely be one of the biggest expenses each year.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fortunately, with the rise in remote work, entrepreneurs can forego these prohibitively expensive operational costs by registering their business with a virtual office.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ugb-container ugb-container ugb-4e59bbb ugb-container--v2 ugb-container--design-basic ugb-main-block\"><div

You can work from anywhere you\u2019d like, meaning you can cut down on commutes and have more time to handle the numerous important business functions that are on your plate.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This flexibility also better positions your business for expansion.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Operating primarily online opens you up to countless markets across the country, allowing you to connect with new customers and effectively raise profits.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Higher productivity&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to Stanford economist Nicholas Bloom, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/opinion\/articles\/2022-06-02\/are-workers-more-productive-at-home#:~:text=Productivity%20was%20up%2013%25%20for,were%20more%20productive%20per%20minute.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">remote workers are 13% more productive <\/a>than their traditional in-office counterparts. While this is sometimes debated, the consensus is that working from home does marginally increase productivity.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The lack of commutes is likely tied to this increase, as the US. Census Bureau has stated that before the pandemic, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.census.gov\/content\/dam\/Census\/library\/publications\/2021\/acs\/acs-47.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the average commute time<\/a> was approximately half an hour.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This means utilizing a remote workspace can eliminate an entire hour of wasted time in a workday. If you\u2019re saving an hour a day, five days a week, it\u2019s easy to see where the increase in productivity comes from.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Exponentially lower operational costs&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The barrier for entry into a traditional office space is often too much for many entrepreneurs to handle. Operating a virtual workspace allows you to eliminate many of these costs and gives you the chance to funnel that reserved money back into the business.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to saving money, a high-quality remote office workspace can also give you access to a physical workspace. This means that even after saving money by not getting a traditional rental, you\u2019ll still have a place where you can go to work.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Wider access to applicants&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No matter where you live, finding qualified employees isn\u2019t as easy as it sounds, particularly during the ongoing labor shortage.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, with a virtual office, you can hire employees from anywhere you\u2019d like, provided they have the necessary equipment and fit any remote workspace requirements.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Such a wide applicant pool means that finding employees for remote work will be far less time-consuming &#8211; especially when you consider the ease of remote interviews.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Better employee retention&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the topic of employees, a remote workspace has shown itself to be much more effective in terms of employee retention. The national turnover rate continues to rise, and hiring new employees is expensive and time-consuming.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many studies have shown the efficacy of providing remote work solutions for your employees.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A study from the College and <a href=\"https:\/\/files.eric.ed.gov\/fulltext\/ED616920.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">University Professional Association<\/a> showed that \u201calmost two-thirds of respondents were unhappy with their current work arrangements, especially in regard to the ability to work-from-home at least sometimes.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Reduced carbon footprint&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Science continues to support that the world is experiencing the impact of climate change, and public consciousness is shifting towards preparing for a green future.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Keeping up with these changes in public perception is part of being a business owner, and reducing your carbon footprint can do just that.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By opting for a virtual office, your reduced commute times and traditional energy usage can enhance your company\u2019s public reputation and help it go greener.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">General business readiness&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During Covid-19, small businesses had it tough. Despite PPP loans saving the day for many businesses, the lockdowns made life very difficult for several entrepreneurs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By transitioning to a remote workspace, you\u2019re setting yourself up to be prepared for anything to come.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you have remote workspace software in place and other systems to allow you to function from wherever then you\u2019re already prepared to run your business completely from the comfort of your own home.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As you can see, there are several worthwhile reasons to make the transition to a remote workspace. These benefits go to show that the switch is not only convenient but lucrative as well.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.alliancevirtualoffices.com\/virtual-office-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/02-section-how-can-you-switch-to-remote-work-1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"301\" height=\"301\" src=\"https:\/\/www.alliancevirtualoffices.com\/virtual-office-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/02-section-how-can-you-switch-to-remote-work-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20481\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.alliancevirtualoffices.com\/virtual-office-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/02-section-how-can-you-switch-to-remote-work-1.png 301w, https:\/\/www.alliancevirtualoffices.com\/virtual-office-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/02-section-how-can-you-switch-to-remote-work-1-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.alliancevirtualoffices.com\/virtual-office-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/02-section-how-can-you-switch-to-remote-work-1-75x75.png 75w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 301px) 100vw, 301px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"How-can-you-switch-to-remote-work?-\">How can you switch to remote work?&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Switching to remote work is easier than it sounds. Similar to how you have to work nearly every day to further your traditional business\u2019s success, you\u2019ll have to do the same thing virtually, but with a different approach.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Below, we\u2019ve put together a step-by-step list of the measures necessary for you to switch to remote work.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">First, you\u2019ll need to build a strong online presence, meaning you\u2019ll need to have a way to offer your products or services online.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>This is an area you\u2019ll likely have to outsource, but a basic website that accepts payment and showcases your offerings won\u2019t be too big of an expense.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Independently of your website, build a social media presence. Social media is an excellent way to build brand awareness and connect with customers.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Don\u2019t feel like you need to have a wildly successful social media presence before making the switch to a virtual workspace. Using it as a tool to connect with customers opens another avenue of contact.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After your website is operational, make sure you have a way to organize the workflow and manage employees.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Applications like <a href=\"https:\/\/slack.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Slack<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-ie\/microsoft-teams\/log-in\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Microsoft Teams<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/asana.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Asana<\/a> are all great examples of remote workspace software that will help you streamline this process.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Because you\u2019re going to be working online, you have the distinct pleasure of automating a majority of the more tedious aspects of your business.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Take advantage of this automation with any of these apps. Doing so helps set clear expectations, gives you the ability to play to your employees\u2019 advantages, and overall, makes your life remarkably easier.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now that your website is operational and your team is functioning well, it\u2019s time to consider focusing on moving your most profitable products.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>You can offer promotional advertisements on your website for items that have the highest profit margin.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Finally, it\u2019s time to change your business\u2019s address and secure a remote workspace.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Technically, you\u2019re able to use your home address when registering your business, but doing so isn\u2019t advisable as it compromises your personal privacy by making your home address public domain.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The process for changing your address differs by state, but we\u2019ll take a look at some of the various forms and how you can find them below.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The actual transition will take a bit of time and effort, but once you have the hang of operating from a remote workspace, it\u2019ll be well worth it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Choosing the right virtual office to use for the registration of your business is important. If the virtual office you choose to use doesn\u2019t have a physical address or is only using a P.O. box, you won\u2019t be able to use it for the address change.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The actual forms you\u2019ll need to fill in differ from state to state.&nbsp; Here are some examples:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>In New York, you\u2019ll need to fill out the form<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tax.ny.gov\/help\/contact\/address.htm#:~:text=To%20change%20your%20physical%20or%20mailing%20address%2C%20complete%20Form%20DTF,95%2C%20Business%20Tax%20Account%20Update.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> DTF-96<\/a>.

Unfortunately, not all virtual offices are created equal.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before we look at the things you <em>should <\/em>be looking for, let\u2019s look at the things you should make a point to avoid.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Platforms that are entirely virtual without any kind of physical address<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you\u2019re searching for a remote workspace, you\u2019ll regularly run into virtual offices that are nothing more than online platforms. Sure, you might be able to use them to host and connect to online meetings, but they don\u2019t provide any value.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These online platforms don\u2019t have physical addresses, making them difficult or impossible to use as a mail forwarding system. Without a physical address or a working mailing system, these platforms are essentially just a waste of money.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Virtual offices that are only attached to a P.O. box<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another virtual office you\u2019ll run into are those operating only with a P.O. box.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although this model might run a better mail forwarding system than their wholly virtual counterparts, a majority of states won\u2019t allow you to register your business with just a P.O. box.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to the inability to use the P.O. box-based virtual offices for your address change or registration, these virtual offices don\u2019t provide access to meeting rooms or give you a place to work should you need a break from the office.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>NEXT STEPS:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.alliancevirtualoffices.com\/virtual-office-blog\/remote-work-software\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The Remote Work Software Helping Small Businesses Grow Faster Than Ever<\/a>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The ideal virtual office needs to have a physical address, access to a physical workspace, and a robust mailing system. <a href=\"https:\/\/alliancevirtualoffices.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Alliance Virtual Offices<\/a> provides each of these amenities and has remote workspaces available in every state.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Having offices available in each state means that you no longer need to ask the question: \u201cIs there a remote workspace near me?\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Alliance Virtual Offices makes landing a virtual office as simple as navigating the website, no matter what state you\u2019re living in.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When selecting an office through <a href=\"https:\/\/www.alliancevirtualoffices.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Alliance Virtual Offices<\/a>, the process is quite simple. All you\u2019ll need to do is visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.alliancevirtualoffices.com\/virtual-offices-locations\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Virtual Office<\/a> tab on the homepage of the website.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From here, just search for the state where you\u2019re hoping to find a remote workspace. After you\u2019ve searched for a particular area, just follow the instructions given by the website to pick your plan before checking out.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to offering a physical address, physical workspace, and an impressive mailing system, Alliance Virtual Offices has remote workspace policies in place that ensure the physical workspace is professional and comfortable.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another benefit of the virtual offices provided by Alliance is the access to meeting rooms.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the few pitfalls to operating from a remote workspace is the lack of a good area to handle meetings or presentations. With Alliance Virtual Office\u2019s plans, you can make sure that the virtual office you\u2019re selecting has this access to keep your business as professional as possible.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.alliancevirtualoffices.com\/virtual-office-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/04-section-sustaining-growth-in-your-remote-workspace.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"301\" height=\"301\" src=\"https:\/\/www.alliancevirtualoffices.com\/virtual-office-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/04-section-sustaining-growth-in-your-remote-workspace.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20483\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.alliancevirtualoffices.com\/virtual-office-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/04-section-sustaining-growth-in-your-remote-workspace.png 301w, https:\/\/www.alliancevirtualoffices.com\/virtual-office-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/04-section-sustaining-growth-in-your-remote-workspace-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.alliancevirtualoffices.com\/virtual-office-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/04-section-sustaining-growth-in-your-remote-workspace-75x75.png 75w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 301px) 100vw, 301px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Sustaining-growth-in-your-remote-workspace---\">Sustaining growth in your remote workspace&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Making the switch to a remote workspace can often seem more difficult than it is, but the benefits are clear. The switch can help you scale and attract top talent, all while saving money.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In reality, making the transition is easy and requires little more than a few tweaks to some of your existing operations.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you\u2019re choosing a remote workspace, it\u2019s important to choose one that offers meeting rooms, a physical address, a competent mail forwarding system, and a functioning office to make the most of your money.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Having access to meeting rooms and mail forwarding available gives you all the benefits of a traditional office at just a fraction of the cost.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As evidenced above, the switch to remote work is more than just a passing fad, so it makes sense to transition now to set your business up for success.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A fully functional virtual office is the perfect way to get your virtual business started, but there is several other remote workspace software available that can help your business continue to grow.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From <a href=\"https:\/\/www.alliancevirtualoffices.com\/live-receptionist\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Live Receptionists<\/a> to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.alliancevirtualoffices.com\/virtual-phone-number\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">virtual phones<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.alliancevirtualoffices.com\/coworking\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">coworking spaces<\/a> to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.alliancevirtualoffices.com\/meeting-room-locations\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">meeting rooms<\/a>, Alliance Virtual Offices offers several solutions for any of your online business needs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A Live Receptionist provides a friendly and professional receptionist that will screen your calls. Instead of multitasking and potentially upsetting customers, you\u2019re able to ensure that your customers\u2019 first point of contact is friendly and ready to help.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Virtual phones protect your personal phone number and effortlessly connect with your team.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This way, you don\u2019t have to keep all your business contacts mixed with your personal ones. There\u2019s no better way to ensure you\u2019re keeping a good work-life balance than separating your cellphone from the inner workings of your business.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Coworking spaces give you access to a professionally managed space. These spaces are a lifesaver when you\u2019re traveling and can be used to easily meet with remote workers that are living in different states.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Provided you\u2019ve picked a good virtual office, meeting rooms will usually be included in the cost of the rent.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, if you\u2019re traveling to make a presentation or meet with investors, a meeting room is cheap and can be rented by the hour, half day, or day. Rather than wasting time in a coffee shop or hotel lobby, showcase your business\u2019s professionalism by using one of these spaces for any of your important conferences.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Each of these solutions can be easily found on the Alliance Virtual Office homepage. Take the time to scan through the numerous benefits associated with each feature to see just how much any of these programs can help your business grow.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Further reading<\/strong>:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.alliancevirtualoffices.com\/virtual-office-blog\/meeting-room-names-what-to-call-your-office-meeting-room\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\"><strong>Meeting Room Names: What to Call Your Office Meeting Room<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2022\/03\/10\/business\/remote-work-office-life.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">A Two-Year, 50-Million-Person Experiment In Changing How We Work<\/a>&nbsp;<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/bryanrobinson\/2022\/05\/05\/remote-work-increases-employee-happiness-by-20-new-study-finds\/?sh=777dfff03183\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Remote Work Increases Employee Happiness By 20%, New Study Finds<\/a>&nbsp;<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/opinion\/articles\/2022-06-02\/are-workers-more-productive-at-home#:~:text=Productivity%20was%20up%2013%25%20for,were%20more%20productive%20per%20minute\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Are Workers More Productive At Home?<\/a>&nbsp;<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At <a href=\"https:\/\/alliancevirtualoffices.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Alliance Virtual Offices<\/a>, we provide numerous virtual offices available for rent in every one of the fifty states.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Making the switch to a remote workspace might seem scary, but in reality, it\u2019s just as straightforward as running your business the way you\u2019re currently doing so.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether you\u2019re looking to transition to a more virtual business or hoping to start one yourself, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.alliancevirtualoffices.com\/contact\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">contact us today<\/a> to see how we can help you move your business forward.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<style class=\"advgb-styles-renderer\">.ugb-4e59bbb-wrapper.ugb-container__wrapper{border-radius:5px !important;border-style:solid !important;border-color:#000000 !important;border-top-width:1px !important;border-right-width:1px !important;border-bottom-width:1px !important;border-left-width:1px !important;padding-top:0 !important;padding-bottom:0 !important}.ugb-4e59bbb-wrapper > .ugb-container__side{padding-top:35px !important;padding-bottom:35px !important}.ugb-5747f18 .ugb-heading__title{font-size:24px !important;text-align:left;margin-bottom:0px !important}.ugb-5747f18 .ugb-heading__subtitle{font-size:18px !important}@media screen and (min-width:768px){.ugb-5747f18.ugb-heading{margin-top:-12px !important}}.ugb-5d98db9 > .ugb-inner-block > .ugb-block-content > .ugb-columns__item{grid-template-columns:0.66fr 1.34fr !important}@media screen and (min-width:768px){.ugb-5d98db9.ugb-columns{margin-top:-18px !important;margin-bottom:-30px !important}}@media screen and (max-width:768px){.ugb-5d98db9.ugb-columns{margin-top:-60px !important;margin-bottom:-20px !important;padding-top:0px !important}}<\/style>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Switching to a remote workspace provides countless benefits to the entrepreneur willing to put in the work.
