Blogpost #3: Work Remotely, Stay Professional -The Power of Virtual Mail
In an age where technology reigns, startups are thriving, and more people than ever are working for themselves, the traditional need for full office setups—and by extension, full office addresses—is quickly changing.
But that raises the question: what should you do about your business mail? Maybe you want a professional-sounding address for your company, or maybe you’d simply prefer not to use your home address for business correspondence. P.O. boxes can feel impersonal and often come with limitations for businesses.
That’s where Virtual Mail comes in. According to the United States Postal Service:
“A Commercial Mail Receiving Agency (CMRA) is a private business that rents Private Mail Boxes (PMBs) to customers and accepts mail from the United States Postal Service for distribution to their customers.”
By renting a PMB at a CMRA—like QCowork—you can receive mail at our downtown location, use it as your business’s official mailing address, and pick up your mail during convenient business hours. It’s a fantastic solution for professionals who are frequently on the go and want peace of mind knowing their mail is secure. Plus, who wouldn’t love a swanky downtown Blacksburg address to elevate their business presence?
Not sure if a coworking membership is right for you, but think Virtual Mail might be a great fit? Click the link below to learn more about how it works, what you need to get started (including the 1583 form), and how this service can support your business goals.
