AdvantEdge Workspaces Blog

Coworking is becoming increasingly popular amongst psychologists, psychiatrists, and other mental health professionals. AdvantEdge's facilities are fully furnished and serviced; perfect for solo professionals who want the resources of a larger entity, but only need one or two dedicated offices. Our outstanding client services team also makes it easy to meet with guests and patients in a confidential and comfortable environment. 

Since AdvantEdge Workspaces was founded over 30 years ago, we have excelled in supporting DC-area professionals and local businesses with outstanding support services and top-notch office facilities. As a small local business ourselves, we are uniquely positioned to understand the needs of a growing organization and provide the infrastructure needed to thrive. Over the years, we’ve learned a few things about running a successful and sustainable operation.

Finding the right address for your office is vital to making sure that you have the foundations for sustainability and the tools for growth. It is important to find an office facility that will be convenient for you, your colleagues, and your clients. You also want a workspace that fits into your longer-term vision of durability and expansion for your company. Moving your office to a shared workspace could be the step your business needs; providing you with a prestigious Washington, DC address and all of the resources you'll need to thrive without the full cost of a traditional office lease. 

To many people, the freedom and flexibility of freelancing are incredibly attractive. Leaving behind a corporate job and being your own boss can be a dream. Whether you want to have more time with kids, want to travel the world, or make another lifestyle change, freelancing can help fulfill those desires. However, many people who set out on their own find that the workspace situation isn’t all that it's cracked up to be. Working from home used to be more appealing, but after a year of it, you may be ready for a change of scenery, even though you work solo. If you’re loving the freelance life but missing some of the perks of a traditional office environment, then a coworking desk is the perfect solution for you!

It seems like every other week that we are reading about another corporate hack or data breach in the news. Advances in technology have allowed us to connect and work in new and exciting ways, but they have also revealed the vulnerability of our personal information. If major corporations like these are at risk of being hacked, smaller organizations and individual professionals who don't have the resources to implement complex security systems to protect their data are clearly at risk as well. Now more than ever, it is crucial that we are all mindful of protecting our personal data; here are a few simple security tips that will give you some peace of mind.

With Memorial Day weekend behind us, summer is officially here! It can be hard to focus during the season, as warm weather beckons and the desire to have a lazy day is at an all-time high. The world is returning to normal, and this summer will feel much better as we can actually enjoy the seasonal activities we love. To ensure you have time to do what you want this summer, set yourself up for success in the workplace. Here is how a shared workspace like AdvantEdge Workspaces can help you thrive this season!

Many of us are just starting to return to the workplace. After over a year at home, it may be hard to decipher our needs. A shared workspace has many options so that your office space solutions can change alongside your needs. Sit at a coworking desk one day a week or move up to a private suite as your team grows. Wherever business takes you this summer, AdvantEdge Workspaces will have the office space for you.

While most aspects of normal life are coming back, many have adjusted to eliminating non-essential work travel. Virtual meetings are difficult, which is why meeting rooms at AdvantEdge are equipped with the latest technology- you won't even realize you aren't in the same room as your colleague! Diminish tech stress and seamlessly host meetings with people from all over the world, leaving more "me" time this summer.

Summer is a season of flexibility, and making your schedule work with activities and vacations is no small task. You need a workspace that is flexible and adapts to your schedule instead of creating another headache. Building access means you can work whenever you want, and community benefits, such as building upkeep and management, enable you to simply shut your laptop and leave without worrying about the space.

Whether a private office, a virtual office, or coworking is the right choice for you and your organization, AdvantEdge's outstanding Client Services Team is ready to back you up and keep your business running smoothly when you go on vacation! Leaving your work behind isn't as easy as it sounds, especially for those in positions of leadership. Even as you dip your toes in the pool or enjoy a beautiful mountain top view, your brain may wander back to the constant anxieties that come with running a business. Joining the AdvantEdge Community will allow you to breath deep and kick those feet up, here's how:

At AdvantEdge, we remind our community members that their personal health should be a priority and we work to promote healthy workplaces at our office and the home office! The true key to your success is yourself; taking care of your mind and body can be the crucial foundation for fruitful work life. You can implement a post-work yoga routine or even add twenty minutes of exercise and mindfulness to your lunch break. However you fit personal care into your schedule, yoga can bring about many benefits to help us be more productive and efficient in the workplace.
