Business Rescue Service

Office Reliance introduces a service aimed at entrepreneurs wanting to ride out the current recession.

Desperately seeking a way to save your business? Make use of the admin and office services supplied by Office Reliance and cut your overheads to the bone.

In these taxing economic times, turnover and profits are taking a nose dive and business owners must do everything in their power to keep expenses to a minimum.

Salaries, administration and office space are three areas that tap your business and can easily suck dry the diminished cash flow still generated when times are tough.

Outsource your office

Why pay for full time office space, if you can make use of the same or even better offices whenever needed? Office Reliance have state of the art facilities to cater for every corporate need: - private office space, internet, computers, IT back up and help desk, conference and presentation facilities, a formal boardroom and smaller rooms for workshops. Everything you have in a normal office environment and much, much more.

When it comes to personnel, instead of employing a full time secretary and receptionist, let Office Reliance fulfil these duties for you. You will have your own dedicated telephone number and your own company name will be used when answering the phone, creating the impression of a full time receptionist at your company premises. The call can be redirected to your cell phone or a message can be taken, all for as little as R600 per month.

Pay as you use

Now you may wonder: "Whether I pay my own secretary or whether I pay Office Reliance, what’s the difference?" Huge difference.

There is no contract and you only pay for the hours that you make use of the service or space. If you see that cash flow is a bit tight, simply stop the use of the facility and immediately your expenses are down to nil. No longer will there be obligatory salaries at the end of every month or sky high rentals staring you in the face. Professional office space start from as little as R50 per hour for a fully furnished and serviced office or meeting room.

A variety of services

Apart from your typical front office secretarial duties, Office Reliance also performs the classic "back office" administrative duties like pay roll, accounting and human resources.

Desperate times require pro-active measures, so get rid of unnecessary monthly expenses and leave the unpleasant details of people management to the experts.

Even the little things like serving you and your visitors tea and coffee is taken care of by the friendly OR staff.

With aggressive recession proof pricing there is no reason not to give Office Reliance a try. Contact us today to see how we can help your business survive the recession.
