After wrapping up another record-breaking year that included the opening of six new business centers and the signing of its 86th franchise agreement, Office Evolution, a rapidly-growing B2B franchise offering coworking spaces, virtual office services and fully furnished offices and suites, has moved up to the number four spot on the prestigious Entrepreneur Magazine’s Top New Franchises and Promising Business Opportunities for 2017.

“Achievements like this only reinforce the return on investment we strive to provide our franchisees through the hard work and dedication of our team members.”
The market demand for coworking space, private office space, virtual offices and business services is expected to continue its rapid growth trajectory as corporate America continues to outsource many jobs that can be performed more cost-effectively by contractors. The number of consultants, contractors, and so-called “solopreneurs” will have soared 50 percent between 2011 and 2018, to an estimated 24 million, per an annual workforce report by MBO Partners.
Moreover, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates that the number of freelancers, temps, independent contractors and solopreneurs will grow from 30 percent of the workforce today to 40 percent of the total workforce over the next five years. And those folks need a professional place to work, have meetings and get help with administrative tasks that get in the way of building their businesses.
Our members come from all different professions including lawyers, chiropractors, accountants, therapists, IT consultants – really anyone needing a place to hang their hat – whether they need a place to pop in and check email, a conference room for meetings, or an office for a day, week, month or permanently. What sets us apart from the rest is that we are very flexible in meeting the needs of members at all stages of their business evolution.
