Dixon made a statement that I really liked: “Determined companies won’t sit idle waiting for the recession to pass.” That’s true. For determined companies that are paying out the nose for office space, they’ll be willing to go through the inconvenience of moving to a serviced office when their lease expires. In some cases, they may even have to negotiate out of those leases or default on them. Determined companies will look at all the options and make the smartest decision for the corporate health and their employees. Serviced office space is certainly a credible option.

Taking credit for helping companies avoid layoffs is a pretty bold play. For some companies, moving from a traditional office to an executive office suite isn’t going to make a bit of difference. And what about companies that are already using serviced offices? Where do they turn? Flexible office space won’t solve the layoff problems, but I will admit that Regus is on to something with its assertion. For many companies, serviced office space would dramatically reduce office rent and help keep the company running strong despite the recession.

Regus has its bases covered — and it has Corporate America’s bases covered too — when it comes to office space. If Regus executive offices are good enough for Google, it’s good enough for entrepreneurs. Bill is right. That 60 percent figure deserves a wow. The best part it, it’s not inflated. Regus really does deliver serviced office space at such a discount over traditional office space.

What an angle. I had never thought of it that way. Instead of laying off workers, why not just transition into a more affordable office space? Of course, that does impact the economy as well, but probably not as much as letting employees go. Regus really does get it.

60 percent. Wow. That’s a big number in terms of cost savings on anything, but it’s huge when it comes to renting office space. And Regus isn’t renting shabby office space, either. Regus has top of the line flexible office facilities. Other than an purchasing your own office condo, I’m not sure why you wouldn’t go with a serviced office.

Once again, Regus is leading the way on communicating its value proposition. I got a new perspective from this article based on Dixon’s insights. It really makes so much sense for companies to tap into the value of executive office suites in this economy — and in any economy. The way Dixon describes it, you really ‘get it.’
