Co-working is not new, but is a trend still being developed. Whether it means sharing a warehouse  or office space or an unused factory, the idea is to allow members or tenants to take offices, desks or working spaces for hours, days or months on a pay-per-use basis. No longer do freelancers have to deal with the inconvenience of home base business.

Shared Office Space for Rent v Fixed Tenancy

Of course we don’t need to be tied to a fixed office any more. We’ve been using smart phones for a couple of years to check email but now we’re comfortable using mobile devices to prepare and share documents. As websites have become optimised for the tiny phone screen, or the larger tablet screen, we can now comfortably read and format text.

Working Around the Clock

Freelancers Use Shared Office Space for Rent

Even if  freelancers have a permanent or temporary office space, they don’t have to be actually there 24/7. They can work in every location. ‘Working around the clock’ takes on a new meaning.

They can work at home, in transit, in cafes or clients’ offices or even, as some of our clients do, use a virtual office address to give the appearance of having a dedicated office.

Virtual Desktops Coming

Web Based Document Storage

Working on the go has suddenly become lighter and will become even more convenient as ‘cloud computing’ turns our mobile devices into virtual desktops. Distance travelling is already easier. Removing your laptop from the cover to put it through screening at the airport will become a nuisance of the past. My iPad was not screened last time I flew .While away from our desk we can still access documentation saved from the desktop to web-based document storage sites such as ‘Dropbox’ or ‘Evernote’. These sites can be accessed by mobile devices, so there’s less need to carry paper files or a laptop.

Co-Workers Use Shared Office Spaces

The Sydney Morning Herald recently ran an article about shared office space for rent – highlighting as an example a group of independent web developers, writers and graphic designers sharing a space in Melbourne with a fashion designer and her sewing machine.

These unlikely bedfellows enthusiastically supported the practice of shared office space for rent on a defined space or hourly use basis. By sharing a working space they said they brought together a diversity of talent and experience in one location and at the same time they enjoyed working with interesting people.

When co-workers are in the same space they are able to offer advice and even develop business opportunities together. The common denominator seems to be the energy of the entrepreneurial spirit. Shared office space for rent to start-ups or young companies allows the business owners to work in close proximity with like-minded people.

No Complaints

Interesting, in all the reports I’ve read about shared office space for rent for co-working, there has been no complaint about the mundane side of sharing spaces, such as keeping the shared office space clean and tidy, choosing compatible background music or keeping conversations to a low hum to allow others to work in peace. In the Sydney Morning Herald article the co-workers said they actually liked having the sewing machine in their space – one called it ‘playful’.

Share office space for rent is nothing new. Artisans and artists used to work together and rent large workshops with shared spaces or individual cubicles. Now the technical and design folk are getting together. For internet and website specialists there can be an interesting synergy.

Combining Skills for Co-Working Success

Website builders, although they may hate to admit it, are usually not great website designers or graphic artists. How convenient it could therefore be to have a team of collaborators with different skills stationed nearby. It looks like shared office space for rent will  soon be  a fixed item on the commercial real estate menu.

Will Shared Office Space for Rent Replace the Serviced Office ?

The availability of shared office space for rent to start ups  gives more choice  for new business owners. Those who are on a tight budget, do not wish to work in isolation at home or those who are looking for synergy between other entrepreneurs will be likely clients of this commercial space model. Especially in the realm of internet marketing and website development, techies writing website code all day will benefit from working alongside creative graphic artists and interacting with researchers or financial business specialists. Sharing and collaborating is the key.

The Swanbourne Business Centre offers, rather than shared office space for rent, individually furnished, equipped and serviced offices Perth. If you are ready to move from co-working to having your own dedicated space in a professional environment, please call or contact us.

But you don’t even have to be a tenant – you can use our serviced office address as a virtual office Perth for your mail, website or documentation. You pay just a nominal amount for a virtual office or a monthly fee for a short-term office tenancy with almost everything included.

A serviced office or virtual office Perth? In the late 70′s there were no serviced or virtual offices services when I started my business.

What a Red Convertible Taught Me About Business.

At that time I lived in Hong Kong. My company start-up was just 6 months old when the Chinese owner of my ageing office building decided to demolish. The trouble for him was that I still had a long lease to run.

The owner insisted I leave. I resisted because I didn’t want to change my new office address so soon after starting the business. His tone changed to threatening.

Hong Kong at that time was a cowboy town and I had visions of a mystery overnight fire destroying my office premises. So I took his compensation offer and moved out. Whereas my first office had been a mixture of used furniture and an amateur paint job, thanks to his cheque the next office was professionally decorated. Virtual office Perth.

Smart Office Premises Encourage Confidence

Suddenly I noticed that prospective clients no longer asked me hundreds of questions regarding my training or background. They trusted that someone in such a good looking office knew what she was doing. That confidence brought in bigger clients.

Temporary Office Space Perth: Working On The Go

Self-Employment and Job Security

In the days of my parents, students were encouraged to get a good secure job with a bank or the government, earn a steady income and maybe get a pension at the age of 65.

For Generation X no job is secure any more. As we experience Global Financial Crisis #2 they have to worry if that bank paying large salaries will even be around next year.

For companies and freelancers alike, with the fast changes in the job and business market, risk management is important. To test a new project companies will enter short term contracts for employees, services and take on temporary office space. It makes serviced office accommodation very attractive.

If future office space Perth follows the worldwide colourful and activity based office designs  no-one will have their own desks – they will simply have a storage locker. Mail will be received at a central point and distributed to each person electronically, so there will be no need for filing cabinets. Even executives for the most part will have no desk or fixed working area.  Instead they move from office space to office space with their laptops, able to choose from a variety of hubs designed to support different tasks.

Remember the ‘open plan office’ revolution? Larger companies adopted the open floor layout because it saved space and enabled better employee inter-action. Now we have moved on. Now its all about a dedicated and specially designed area for a particular activity. Perhaps office space Perth will never be the same.

Need a list of helpful Twitter books and blogs?

Clients renting  office space from our Perth business centre are frequently start ups who are looking for updates on how best to approach social media.

We know we all need websites and perhaps reluctantly acknowledge that we need to learn and apply social media to support our website activity. There are so many Twitter books and blogs you can read, free courses and helpful Twitter tips to download. It can be very confusing when you want to select the most time and cost effective system for your needs.

Swanbourne Business Centre provides temporary office spacefor freelancers and entrepreneurs but we also support our tenants in their search for excellent training in social media. More and more companies will rely on their web-based promotion for their growth.

It doesn’t take long to realise that involvement in website marketing requires time and effort to stay abreast of changes. If you are a start up or new company,  it is important to assess how much of your website marketing can be outsourced so you can spend the most time using the valuable skills you have, to develop your business. So research our suggested Twitter books and blogs to decide if it is going to work for you.

It’s not easy to find a serviced office Nedlands because when you start looking the first thing you notice is there’s now a shortage of available commercial office space Perth. There is hardly a ‘for lease’  sign to be seen anywhere in the Western Suburbs.
