During the Covid-19 pandemic, there are far more of us working from home and if you have a small business, or even a larger one, you may have decided to work from a home office, or benefit from the many flexible workspace opportunities available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In these situations,\nit\u2019s very easy to default to using your home address across your website and\nyour social media accounts, but could this decision be ultimately costing you\nbusiness and new clients?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the\ncurrent climate of businesses closing in high numbers, as a direct result of\nthe Covid crisis, people making business decisions are naturally doing more\nresearch into the businesses they trust to partner with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Many of\nthese searches involve a scan of the postcode, to take a look at where the\nbusiness is located.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So quite\nliterally, with Google Street View, you have a prospective client looking\nthrough your front window into your home and up and down your street!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It doesn\u2019t\ntake a rocket scientist to know that this is not good for business, on some\noccasions, you can actually see home occupants in the windows or in the garden\n– not exactly a very professional look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If this due\ndiligence is present, and only going to increase in the future, as decision\nmakers want to grasp a better understanding of who they are choosing to do\nbusiness with, surely it makes sense to box off a suitable and appropriate\nbusiness address?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A London\nbusiness mailbox<\/a> is a smart move for many businesses. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Firstly, London\nis the major hub of business and industry in the UK, so your address in this location,\nshows that you have good connections to the city, where may of your prospective\nclients are likely to be located.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But more than\nthat is the address itself. A premium address in the right location, associates\nyour brand as being prestigious and projects exactly the right image for your\nbusiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n With a London\nPO box<\/a>, your business can direct mail to this new address, which can be set\nup as your legal trading address. The service includes the scanning and\nforwarding of mail to wherever you are, either within, or outside the UK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can\nimagine that when a prospective client now searches for your office address on Street\nView, the result is far more impressive than them looking at your domestic\ndwelling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
