In 2017, business owners all over Australia are opting for serviced offices over traditional office space. The popularity of serviced offices is soaring and shows no sign of slowing down. What was once just a temporary solution for startups or remote teams has now become the workplace of choice for thousands of Australian business. Which is why we find our serviced office in the Sydney CBD so popular.

SOI: Serviced Offices in Sydney CBD: a growing trend
So why is it that serviced offices, particularly in Sydney’s CBD, are becoming so popular? And is it a viable option for your business?
Don’t get bogged down with commitment
If you’ve previously worked from home and are considering taking the dive into a commercial office lease, you know how daunting the process is. So many things to consider:
- Will having this size office be the right fit in the next three/six/twelve months?
- What if your business isn’t growing like expected and the overheads of a commercial office lease start chewing through the funds?
- Or what if the business goes boom and you need to accommodate more employees?
Being locked into a lease is stifling and frankly, the old way of doing things. With a serviced office, your space grows with your needs. At SOI, we offer some serious flexibility to allow you to change spaces as often as your needs do. Not only does this type of workspace arrangement foster growth, it’s also great if you do project based work with contractors etc. You can look at hiring office space for the duration of the contract, rather than being locked into a 12-month lease.

Connect with like-minded business owners at our Sydney’s serviced office
Being a sole trader, or only having a small team usually limits your daily interactions with people. It also means you probably only regularly see the same people. With a serviced office, you are able to work alongside different business owners in a highly productive environment. Whilst the offices we have at SOI is still extremely private and secure (you can completely lock them keeping everything safe), we also foster networking opportunities. This might be something informal like grabbing a coffee with your neighbour in one of the many breakout rooms. Or it could be more formal at one of our regular networking events. Either way, you never know who you might meet, and what opportunities could develop.
