If you’re not yet familiar with the concept of a virtual office, now is an excellent time to explore it.
These kinds of offices are rising in popularity, as more people are needing to use a physical address without a physical workspace. Companies that provide this service (along with business services, such as a receptionist) are seeing their growth and success surge.Â

What’s especially notable is that Alliance Virtual Offices was able to experience this growth in the years following the pandemic — when the economy was particularly tumultuous, and many companies had to shut down.Â
We spoke to Mike Sullivan, Chief Marketing Officer of Alliance Virtual Offices, to understand how his company was able to achieve this success.Â
Allwork.Space: How did Alliance Virtual Offices rank on the Inc. 5000 list two years in a row?
Mike Sullivan: We’ve been growing at break-neck speed for five or six years because of our experience and understanding of both the market and our role as a marketplace. We have two sets of customers. We have our center partners and our clients, and we have had an intense focus on both to ensure that we maximize revenue for our center partners and that we — together with our center partners — create amazing value for our clients.
Allwork.Space: Are there any particular marketing strategies Alliance used? What has the company done differently lately?Â
Mike Sullivan: Our executive and management team has around 200 years of experience in the flexible workspace industry. Our maturity and ability to focus helps our entire organization excel. In order to continue growth we are expanding our marketplace beyond traditional ways of generating virtual office, meeting room, and live receptionist business. We are now working on creating unique markets, and finding and exploring new territories.
As we have matured as an organization, we are able to focus on operational excellence so that we can do far more than ever before.
Allwork.Space: Alliance came out strong after the pandemic — how?
Mike Sullivan: At the time, we were well positioned in the market to capitalize on the newfound awareness in people around virtual working and other flexible work options. We were already growing strong at that point, but it enabled us to grow faster, and we doubled down and focused even more on maximizing revenue to center partners and creating value for clients.
