I went to craigslist.com once. They really do have nice stuff over there. Can’t remember why I never bookmarked it, I should do it now

There is generally two options when searching for office space 1) on your own, or 2) with a realtor. I’d recommend using a realtor, even if you’re just renting / leasing. Give them the specifications and let them do the leg work.

So true that people can be good in interviews, but horrible on the job. You just have to probe enough to find the point where they stop knowing what they are talking about, and they are just throwing out BS.

Referring back to office spaces. One of my business actually involves executive suites and virtual offices. These types of offices are great for the start up company or someone that is wanting to lower their overhead. If you are not familiar with virtual offices, it is an office service without the physical space and without paying an expensive lease.

For example, lets say you just started your business but you cant afford an $800 lease. I have virtual offices that start under $100/mo. Basically what you are able to do, is receive mail and meet your clients in one the conference rooms. Hence, your able to call my place your office without the lease and you look professional at the same time. Simple.

I also offer other office services that will save you money when starting a new business.Just wanted to give the heads up and let you guys know that these types of services are out there.

Yaro/Jason,

Great, comprehensive, tips – I wish I read your tips on office 4 years ago. I was too delighted to find a lower-than-market rent, only to find things – bad exposure, bad neighbour (LOL), etc – moving out is a mess and, for sure, costly.

Cheers at the great tips!

Thank you for the great post. I really love the headline “Delegate or Die” because it’s so true. Although I’m not yet in the position to hire people, I try to do everything by myself which can be exhausting. Don’t want to die – so I have to delegate stuff to someone…

This is a great and thorough post. I will probably not need to employ anyone for at least a year. However, I will need office space in the next 6 months (even if it is home office space)….so this is a great and helpful post
