Are you thinking of expanding your business now that it’s starting to take off? One of the biggest areas you need to address is having an office. An office space gives your business a dedicated professional space where you can meet with clients, house all of your staff, and conduct your daily operations.

However, leasing an entire office space is quite a significant investment. If your business is just starting and you cannot afford to shoulder this huge and long-term investment, you can look for and try these two flexible office solutions instead.

• Serviced office – Serviced offices do not require a long-term contract. This gives you the flexibility to upgrade your office to a large space, without having to wait for your contract to end. On the other hand, if you need to downsize or completely give up your office space, you can freely do so because you are not tied to a contract. Serviced offices in Abu Dhabi offer features that you only pay for when you use them. This means you get to maximise every service, and you don’t have to pay for add-ons that you really don’t use most of the time.Serviced offices also provide you the manpower you need, but cannot afford to spend on at the moment. They have receptionists who can welcome your clients and guests, and who can answer and transfer your incoming calls. A serviced office is also regularly cleaned and maintained as part of the lease contract, so keeping your office looking professional is one less thing to worry about.Most contracts for serviced offices include a monthly billing scheme. This includes the services you used, and no extra charges.
• Conference/meeting rooms – If you need a space to meet with your teams, or to discuss contracts and services with clients, you can book a conference or meeting room on an hourly basis. As with the serviced office, this gives you the flexibility to pay for something only when you use it.Let’s face it. Meeting and conference rooms in Dubai are not always in use. With these flexible arrangements, you can save on costs, which you can use to further develop your business. Meeting and conference rooms for lease are fully-equipped with LCDs, projectors, screens, and telephones, so you don’t have to worry about these or spend extra on them.
