10 Motivations to Drive You from the Home Office to a Coworking Center

Let’s be honest here, the home office is convenient, it’s comfortable, and it saves on the daily commute. But what if your business is more than a solo web designer or freelance writer? It never takes too long before entrepreneurs outgrow the spare bedroom. Don’t worry. This doesn’t mean you’ll have to throttle your finances and invest in a costly traditional office lease.

Office Evolution is in Bergen County, New Jersey, and growing throughout the US. We’re a professional shared office co-working center with many workspace options.

Despite the rise in popularity, not everyone is familiar with shared office centers and virtual office solutions. We will now explore 10 good reasons to move out of the home office and into a professional shared working environment.

Shared Office Coworking Center in Bergen County, NJ

Our top 10 reasons to leave the home office:

  1. More productive
  2. More professional image (good first impression for clients and prospects)
  3. Flexibility
  4. Improved attitude and outlook
  5. Better physical and mental health
  6. Networking with a community of likeminded professionals
  7. Make quality new friendships
  8. Get out of your own headspace
  9. Better routine
  10. Full business center support

Let’s break each of these down into some detail.

  1. Productivity: People fare better when they’re in a dynamic and challenging environment, they just do. Those who utilize shared office business centers are more productive and energized, and that means they get more work done. The research is out there to back this up.
  2. The professional image: You’ve heard the saying: ‘There’s never a second chance to make a first impression’. Well, good first impressions don’t come out of the spare bedroom at home, or the local coffee shop. Our Coworking Center in Hackensack provides an impressive place to meet with clients and prospects. You can also use the physical business address for all your business needs, and hold meetings in impressive conference rooms. These are all things that help to make that great first impression.
  3. Real Flexibility: Our coworking center offers real flexibility. To start with, you get to choose from a range of workspaces. There are shared workspaces, dedicated desks, one-person private offices, executive suites, team offices, and meeting rooms. The live call answering service, remote receptionists, and mail sorting and forwarding are other benefits. You can work here all the time, part of the time, or only use the location as a virtual office for your business needs. Say goodbye to long-term leases traditional offices demand. This is the ultimate in flexible solutions for independent business professionals and companies.
  4. Improved attitude and outlook: Anyone who has work flexibility, a range of practical options, access to professional work spaces, and the right tools, is a happy camper. Compared to the traditional 9-5, work environment, coworkers are happier and have a much better attitude.
  5. Better physical and mental health: Working in a drab, mundane environment can be a lonely business and loneliness, we now know, is bad for health. Working in a bright and dynamic environment has the opposite effect. Coworkers, in general, are a happy bunch for all kinds of reasons. Happiness, like most emotions, is infectious. And according to numerous studies, ongoing happiness is good for your health. It helps to protect the heart, combats stress, strengthens the immune system, and lengthens life. The better you feel, the better you perform—it’s as simple as that.
  6. Networking potential: Coworking and shared office centers are great spaces for networking, but only if you want to network. You can also keep to yourself and not interact with anyone, if you prefer. Most people, though, exploit the networking opportunities. They see the real benefits of collaborating with like-minded professionals to help them advance their business.
  7. New friendships: Humans, by nature, are pack animals, and that means we feel and function much better when we’re in good company. The social aspect is an integral part to effective coworking in shared workspaces. It’s inevitable that you’ll get to form some new quality friendships over time.
  8. Get out of your own headspace: We spend a lot of time in the privacy of our own headspace when working from the home office. Even the most disciplined among us can get lost in thought and easily sidetracked when working alone. Just having other busy people around us stimulates motivation and helps to keep us focused. As ideal as it might sound, aloneness is, for most people, an unwanted distraction, at least in the longer term. Our Bergen County shared office coworking spaces have a certain buzz within a respected environment that stimulates the mind and motivates the body.
