Bluegreen Office Opens as Businesses Ride Out the Economy and Support the Green Revolution by Using Virtual Support Services

Elon, NC, September 30, 2009 --(PR.com)-- With the current state of the economy, more and more entrepreneurs and business owners are looking for creative ways to cut back and still maintain day-to-day operations. For some, Colleen Serra, owner of Bluegreen Office Virtual Administrative and Creative Group, provides a solution to such a challenge.

Ms. Serra, a busy wife and mother of two, decided to start a business from home to help supplement the growing costs of raising a family, but she was adamant that it be a business that could truly help others. "Everybody is struggling in this economy. I researched and considered many of these home-based businesses on the internet, but I couldn't find anything that would put my mind at ease. Who wants to purchase makeup and candles when many are struggling to feed their kids? I would feel guilty peddling these items," states Ms. Serra. That's when she decided to take her 15+ years experience in office administration, teamed up with paralegal and creative professionals and created a practical way to help other businesses around the country.

Bluegreen Office provides independent support to legal professionals, as well as entrepreneurs and established business owners alike who need administrative, paralegal or creative services but don’t wish to incur the costs of hiring and maintaining new staff, including overhead and non-productive time. With flexible working hours and varied rate packages depending on a client's level of commitment, Bluegreen Office caters to companies that have had to downsize their staff; entrepreneurs and attorneys who are in need of support but can't take on employees; and anyone else in search of general clerical or creative services. Ms. Serra further states, "Virtual support fulfills traditional on-site, core administrative and creative business-related tasks in a remote setting, eliminating the costs and inefficiency associated with the training and maintaining of permanent staff; and meets the client’s needs for productivity and flexibility. So often, business professionals find themselves working over lunch, at home in the evenings and even during their leisure time over a game of golf. Why not have virtual support staff standing by who can work with their schedule?"

Not to be overlooked is the impact that virtual support can have on the environment. By taking advantage of remote assistance, the need for commutes is lessened and in some cases eliminated, as well as electricity consumption and natural gas consumption, reducing the carbon footprint often left by conventional business operation. While physically located in North Carolina, modern technology allows Bluegreen Office to support businesses across the country and even globally, including cities like Cleveland, Atlanta and Las Vegas.
