Due to lack of knowledge, the post office box and the corporate domiciliation address are often placed in the same basket. Yet, the differences between these two services are crucial.
WHAT’S A P.O. BOX?
In fact, a P.O. box is a kind of outsourced mailbox, located in a postal agency. While the service of a post office box is convenient in some situations, it is still very limited. For example, you cannot declare a P.O. Box as your company’s head office and the services offered are limited to receiving mail. Incoming mail must be kept at the post office until you come to pick it up, which is not so convenient for the busy bees like you.
THEN WHAT’S A DOMICILIATION ADDRESS?
More than just a P.O. box, a business mailing address or corporate domiciliation address often reflects the ambitions of the entrepreneur, a detail that should not be overlooked.
With the business domiciliation, you choose your address in complete freedom, allowing you to take advantage of a prestigious address, which can play a strategic role for the image of your company. You can also benefit from additional services besides mail reception, such as mail forwarding, telephone messaging, call transfer, and office rentals to name a few.
WHY DO START-UPS, VSES, AND SMES NEED A PRESTIGIOUS MAILING ADDRESS ANYWAY?
Whether it is to establish a regional branch, to set up a foreign company in Montreal, or to create a new sales outlet, the director needs to show to the consumers that the company is settling in a friendly and dynamic neighborhood to better serve them. Renting full-time office space can be extremely expensive, though, especially if the company is just starting up.
In this case, it is in the entrepreneur’s best interest to opt for a corporate domiciliation service. Thanks to it, the business benefits from a prestigious address in well-known neighborhoods, such as the Saint-Henri neighborhood or other equally famous avenues, while keeping control of the budget.
Moreover, if by any chance – touch wood – an international deployment is not as successful as expected, the business owner has more leeway to adjust his budget. Within the traditional office rental system, the contractor has no choice; it’s all or nothing.
With the address domiciliation service, the business owner has the choice, not only to rent an office, but also to benefit from virtual offices and various assistance options. This can range from receiving mail, handling calls, to secretarial and reception work. Once again, the entrepreneur is free to choose only what he needs. Isn’t that, in the end, the most important thing?
