In many cities, business addresses in certain areas lend an appearance of professionalism and competence. The right address can serve as a signal that your small business has achieved a commendable level of success, which makes your firm appear more trustworthy in the eyes of customers, colleagues and other important contacts.
Read on to learn more about why having the right address for your business is so important, plus tips on how to affordably secure a prestigious address.
If you’ve been using a home address or a P.O. box for business mail, you’re likely wondering if your company’s address matters much at all. It might seem like a small and inconsequential thing, but here are some reasons to reconsider that position:

You might be thinking, “Okay, I understand why my address matters. But how can I possibly afford a lease at a fancy commercial office building?”
Surprisingly, giving your business a “home” at a prestigious business address isn’t nearly as expensive as you might think. That’s because your business can get a virtual business address through a virtual office provider like Intelligent Office (IO).
