When are Executive Suites the Right Alternative for You?

Bob Carter used to work out of his home office, “I liked the idea of being my own boss and I had this picture in my head that I would make the sixty second commute to the computer in my socks and spend my day being focused and hyper-productive.”

Bob had good intentions. But he found himself distracted by his over-grown lawn, a mile-long “honey-do” list and his son’s geometry homework. “All these things needed to be done. They all seemed important. I was always torn.”

Bob needed a “real” office, but his business had just gotten off the ground. He knew he couldn’t handle a large rental commitment. Bob chose to move his business into an Executive Suite, sometimes known as an Office Business Center.

When I speak to entrepreneurs I often find myself extolling the benefits of Executive Suites because they make great transitional office spaces for start-ups. They get your business out of the house without tying you down to long-term lease commitments and large up-front capital investments. They are a wonderful “starter” office for a fledgling business. They make your business ”real” without all the hassles and financial headaches.

Executive Suites give you three big things - 1) more control over your cash flow 2) lots of flexibility for your growing business and 3) the opportunity to create a polished, professional appearance. If it’s time to get out of your home office, Executive Suites might be a great option for the next stage of your business.
