The Business Drawer: Startups and Entrepreneur Challenges. [PART 1]

It is the nightmare of countless entrepreneurs around the world, the major reason several others are developing business-phobia. Only a pinch of a few have ventured and succeeded but not without a strong financial backup.

In February of 2013, a middle aged man narrated a pitiful tale that have prompted my write up. Just like every young Nigerian who is interested in making something out of nothing. Mr. Joseph build a door when opportunity find none to knock on... and he was fortunate to get a government contract worth  millions, but the clay pot was dropped and jaw broken when the agency demand for an address where his business is located and he could not provide any - Mr Joseph was denied the opportunity of a lifetime.

Some may suggest a sharp practice to Mr. Joseph, but in the face of doing the right things, it becomes pertinent that savvy instant office have come up with a more affordable way of owning an office that facilitates, enhance your business capacity and unlocks productivity.

With research; Savvy Instant Offices can provide you with a virtual office, fully furnished executive offices, state of the art board room (with video conferencing), training room for seminars/conferences/workshops and a standby receptionist/administrative support- all this is offered in one building.

Don't wait to become Mr. Joseph, you may not survive it like he did..

VIRTUAL OFFICES AT SAVVY INSTANT OFFICES (SIO) ....... THE NEW COOL

 VIRTUAL OFFICES AT SAVVY INSTANT OFFICES (SIO)     
                              ........... THE NEW COOL

The urban dictionary defines cool as someone/something that is awesome, neat or well put together. In the Naija context I will say ‘packaged’.  Commonly coined “All na packaging “as most of the Naija folks will say.  Given that this blog post is about Virtual Offices, I would like to focus on the benefits of Virtual Offices to Startups, Consultants, Entrepreneurs, Business Executives, Multinationals, NGOs, Expatriates and you reading this post. Now, the aforementioned would love to look and act ‘packaged’ and what better way to do that than to own a Virtual Office at SAVVY INSTANT OFFICES (SIO), Abuja.
OK let’s break it down…What is a Virtual Office? A Virtual Office provides communication and address services that enables users to cut down Traditional Office costs while maintaining business professionalism. A Virtual Office offers companies the benefits of a Serviced Office environment in prime location but without actually renting the physical space. The basic services are reception services, telephone answering in your companies name by a professional receptionist, lobby listing, mail & fax handling, reception & admin support, just to mention but a few. You get to give your clients a fantastic impression of a prestigious business address in a high profile business district in the Nation’s Capital, Abuja at a fraction of the cost.
For Entrepreneurs, Startups or business owners with a limited budget, an office space with a prestigious address might seem like a dream for you. This is no longer the case as our Virtual Offices at SIO Abuja, allows you to pay a fraction of what you would normally on a lease for an exclusive office.
The benefits of a Virtual Office at SIO are numerous, however for the benefit of the doubting Thomas’s, I capture a few here:

• A PRESTIGIOUS BUSINESS ADDRESS: For many companies, having a prestigious address in Abuja is a great attraction. With it brings a sense of status. For start-ups, SMEs, people who work from home, or businesses needing an Abuja presence, a Virtual Office at SIO is the perfect solution. Our location at 22 Kumasi Crescent Wuse 2, is easily accessible, in close proximity to the seat of power, Federal Ministries and Parastatal.What’s more, SMEs can boast of their location, allowing them to compete with larger companies who have a physical location. You can create a professional and established feel for your business whilst working from the comfort of your home. Now that is being ‘packaged’, if you agree!
• REDUCED OPERATING COSTS AND FEWER OVERHEADS: Transport, staff wages, rental costs, office equipment etc all count as operating costs and overheads. These are very high in Abuja. If you do not have enough cash flow to cover them, your business might likely fail. At SIO, we help you save or reduce these costs with our various Virtual Office packages. Our packages have been developed with you in mind and if none suits your specific requirements, we are happy to provide you with a bespoke Virtual Office package.
• EXPANSION OPPORTUNITIES: SMEs or Multinationals unsure about expanding or venturing into a new territory may consider a Virtual Office at SIO to start with. This helps limit risks and provides the opportunity to ‘test the waters’ prior to settling for a Serviced Office or leasing/owning an office. We can provide you with workers and facilities on a temporary basis for a significantly lower cost than an employee on your payroll full time.
• FLEXIBLE CONTRACTS: Traditional Office spaces will often require long-term lease agreement, whereas our Virtual Office packages at SIO allows you to sign up for a minimum of 6 months upwards.
• HELPS BUILD CREDIT: Meeting compliance demands from creditors, lenders and suppliers is not always easy, sometimes you will be refused credit if you work from home or do not have a Traditional Office space. With a Virtual Office at SIO you can register all of your business interest to your Virtual Office address, allowing you to bypass certain legislation relating to your premises.

For years, the visual representation of the working environment has always been a four walled office .To many, this is still the case. While the physical office space has its advantages, times have changed and nowadays technology allows us to run our entire businesses from a computer or in the cloud, making Virtual Offices at SIO the new cool. So what are you waiting for? Become the next ‘packaged’ Entrepreneur! What’s more? Take advantage of our current promos/offers. For just N99,000 per annum, you can have a Virtual Office in Abuja. Yes, and there is no catch to that.

The 3 Lists Every Entrepreneur Must Make

Starting a company is like a dream come true: no one telling you when to go into the office, you can pick and choose meetings and there's unlimited vacation. Wow -- the life of an entrepreneur. So flexible, so fabulous. If only it was that easy.

Those perks were likely on the “perk” side of the pro and con list you made before going into business for yourself. But the real truth is that now you’re busier than ever. You’re likely wearing the hat of HR, IT, marketing and business development teams, just to name a few.

Structure and organization are key to success as an entrepreneur. For those entrepreneurs needing a little help in the organization department, here are three lists you should get:

1. To-do list

You have to have one. Some structure theirs with daily tasks but you may find that a weekly list works better. Another option is to organize your to-do list by project or client.

It’s easiest to plan ahead and make sure not to include too much on the list at once. Try to really be aware of what is feasible given the time frame and resources you have available. You could create a to-do lists for the next day before you leave the office at night. Run through everything that is coming up and what has to be handled the next day. Also include any appointments and meetings on the list as well. Then when you come in the following day, you can just refer to it as a roadmap and hit the ground running.

2. Outsource list

Just because you can do something, doesn’t mean you should. We all know, control is a difficult thing to give up -- especially when we're talking about your business. You’ll do whatever it takes to make sure it’s successful. So why not give the to-do list to someone else?

Outsourcing will provide you the freedom to focus on the tasks you’re really good at -- and hopefully increase your chances of making more money. So, make a list of all the mundane tasks that are necessary but that you don’t need to physically do yourself. Responsibilities like making appointments, booking travel, uploading your blog posts and maintaining your social-media platforms can easily be outsourced. Investing in the help of interns or virtual receptionist will be worth the trouble, as the time you will save is staggering. Make sure to also make a list of all the projects you want to work on once you have some extra help to get the busy work off your plate.  

3. To-become list

Oprah’s mantra: “You become what you believe.” Once you set an intention to do something it becomes so much easier to attain it. And taking it one step further and writing it down can really seal the deal.

This list can include anything that you want for your business and your life -- daydreaming is definitely in order for this list. Think big. Even if you can’t figure out how exactly you’d achieve that goal, write it down anyway. Making a to-become list will get you motivated, hold you accountable and remind you of what’s important to you and your business. Keep this list somewhere safe and set a reminder in your phone every few months to check it out and see what you’ve become. 

                                               

THE 7 SIGNS




1. Your home office affects customers or clients.

These days, many people whether they work for a Fortune 100 company or are self-employed work from home at least part of the time. While home offices are common place, you still need to keep up a level of professionalism to the outside.
If a dog barking, baby crying or roommate’s music interrupts a big call, it might be time to relocate. You need an environment that lets you give clients 100% of your attention when needed.

2. You're stagnating at home.

Maybe you feel you've reached a plateau with your business — it's difficult to get motivated or find inspiration for new ideas. Or maybe you feel like your original home office no longer reflects how your business has grown over the years.
In these cases, you may want to shake things up with a new physical space, and get inspired by joining a community of fellow startups, small businesses and professionals.

3. You can’t separate work and home.

Getting office space outside of the home might be necessary if you find yourself struggling to separate your personal life from your work. For example, do you procrastinate on a big project by doing the dishes or watching TV? Do you find yourself unable to unplug at night? Sometimes having a physical separation between work and home can help inform your mind when it’s time to focus or relax.
4. Your house looks more like an office.

Can you walk through your living room without tripping over boxes?
Can you eat at your kitchen table without needing to move piles of paper first?
Can you eat at your kitchen table without needing to move piles of paper first?
Many people start out working in a spare room, then "work stuff” inevitably migrates to the garage, basement, living room and bedroom. This is particularly true if you’re dealing with any kind of supplies or inventory in the business. If work is invading your home, then it’s time to get more space.

5. You need to meet with customers and vendors.

Do you ever ask customers or vendors to meet you at your home? Holding meetings on your living room couch or at your kitchen table not only reflects poorly on your business, but also impacts your family or roommates.
You should also consider that increased traffic through your front door can be a red flag for some home associations, and could also affect your homeowners or renters insurance.

6. You've brought on employees.

Many businesses move out of the home once they hire employees who need some kind of work space. Not every employee is going to want to work in your home, use your personal bathroom or listen to your family discussions.
If your employees can’t work out of their own homes, then it's only fair that you set up a more conventional office environment so they have the space and resources to do their job. In addition, many homeowners' policies won’t cover liability for your employees.

7. You want to be more visible.

Not every business will benefit from a local presence, but some will. Having a physical office with street signage gives your brand local visibility 24 hours a day. Alternatively, working out of a co-working office or executive suite environment will automatically expand your network of potential customers, partners, and vendors.

Taking the Plunge

Once you have decided it's time to move out of your home office, you do not necessarily need to purchase commercial space or sign a long term lease.
Consider your needs. If inventory and excess boxes are the main issues, maybe you’d benefit from storage space. If you’re looking for a quiet place to concentrate a few times a week for big projects, then you should consider a shared office or executive office center where you can rent space on a part-time or even as-needed basis. There are also co-working environment for those who’d benefit from the energy and support of a community.

that impress clients and help your business thrive.

They’re also quite affordable when you choose a Virtual Office.

You don’t need to invest like a corporate giant to project a world-class image. You need an Abuja address that levels the playimg field.

Virtual Office Space

Virtual Office Space

Most businesses consider the office environment to be the conventional way of working. With the rising costs of office space, many businesses are starting to look for other ways of working to reduce costs and the concept of flexible working is gaining popularity. This is facilitated through technology and more progressive management strategies. A Virtual office takes away the burden of the traditional office, giving you a prestigious address in prime locations of your choice while taking away the expenses of setting up your own office, automatically relieving you of the things associated with setting up a traditional office.

 The main reason for choosing a virtual office is price; it’s cheaper and takes away the burden of renting an office space to work. This is often the driving factor for start-ups and small businesses opt for virtual office as a lifestyle of choice. Employees may prefer this option when they relocate, or have children. Some businesses prefer to work virtually initially, changing to a physical space when they break even. Some businesses may be geographically spread across many countries. In such cases, a permanent office space does not make sense and a virtual office setup is a perfect solution.

Ultimately benefit is that you can concentrate on things that make your business money without worrying about running an office, which means that you have an office, and even though you are not in the space. You have a business address, administrative support, listing at the lobby, an e-receptionist to handle mails, receive and forward call s, you can also make use of an office space or hold meetings whenever required as agreed on signing up.

Setting up a virtual office is easy at Savvy Instant Offices pick your desired package from our

HOW CLOSE ARE YOU TO ACHIEVING THE GOALS YOU SET AT THE BEGINNING OF THE YEAR?

  It is half way into the year!How close are you to achieving the goals set at the beginning of the year.

Many might be wondering if it is possible to achieve their goals before the year runs out?Yes, it is  possible and by following these simple rules, you can still achieve them before the end of the year.

REDEFINE YOUR GOALS

You might need to redefine your goals.Identify your values and what you really want to achieve. Remember you have few months left.Write down your goals on different papers and put them in your office, car, home, or your computer. Seeing them helps you benchmark and check your progress.

CREATE A PLAN

Without a plan, you will find it more difficult to communicate your vision and see a path grow.Rewrite the steps you need to take to reach the finish line. Create a daily time line of when you would need to have everything done.Be concise,realistic, conservative and creative.

VISUALIZE YOURSELF ACHIEVING THE GOALS 

The human brain is an incredible powerful machine, and when you create a mental picture of you achieving your goals,it gives you a good feeling.When you visualize, you are going to be excited, intoxicated and energized with the unbeatable feelings of achievement.You can cut out pictures that relate to your goals , and tape them everywhere, so that when you feel defeated sometimes, you can always look at them and remember that with hard work, any thing is possible.

REWARD YOURSELF FOR A JOB WELL DONE

Rewards are important for keeping the motivation alive.This reward will be something you will remember all of next year when you are trying to reach new goals.

TAKE ACTION

You can not just sit there and expect your goals to be achieved.Take the plan you created and put it to use.Snap out of procrastination and just do it.Focus on the 'how' s instead of the 'if' s.Be accountable to others and be accountable to yourself.

Make this your most amazing year ever!
