We launched the first version of iStopOver earlier
this year. The basis of this internet business was straightforward:
Some people have excess capacity in their home and office, and others
are looking for short-term space. iStopOver connects people and
provides a simple way to directly rent space.
To date,
iStopOver has focused on the home rental market – a market we dubbed as
Hometel = Home + Hotel. Homeowners list their B&B style
accommodations on iStopOver and travelers rent these accommodations
directly on the site, iStopOver for Home Rentals.
Now, we have launched iStopOver for Office Rentals.
That means you can directly rent short term office/business space. By
business space, we mean an office, a desk, a meeting room, a boardroom,
a warehouse, a studio or even a parking space. No agents, no long-term
commitment – directly rent over the Internet.
We have
reacted very quickly to the marketplace. Our customers told us that
they really like the concept of peer-to-peer rental of excess space,
but asked if we could expand the concept to business space – a
marketplace that is virtually untapped.
So, if you have some
spare office space, here is your chance to rent it out on a short-term
basis really easily. You simply go to www.istopover.com/office ,
register on the site and post your listing. Our online wizard makes it
easy – you tell the system what you are renting, how much to charge,
upload some photos, and tell it when the space is available. iStopOver
will find you renters (we call them guests), help manage the
communication with guests and take payments from the guests providing
you monthly payments. Go for it – rent out that spare meeting room,
your extra parking spot, or even your boardroom when you aren’t using
it.
And if you need short term office space, iStopOver is
where you will find it. Next time you are travelling and need a meeting
room, office or boardroom – iStopOver for Office Rentals is where you
will find what you are looking for. Stays can be as short as half a
day, or as long as you need the available space. If you work at home,
and just need an occasional office, find it now on iStopOver.
We are
very excited about this offering. It is part of our focus on creating
Internet businesses that are right for the market and offer what people
really need. The market has told us that the peer-to-peer market for
excess capacity makes sense to Hosts and Guests (especially in the
current economic climate). We are focused on building the bridge
between Guests and Hosts and we are fanatical about customer service.
Please check out the site. www.istopover.com/office Remember that it is new so there may not be too many listings at first – check out Toronto for some good example listings. If you have any comments, suggestions or thoughts, please email us at info@istopover.com
We
are busy! You will see our site change and improve as we learn more and
customers tell us exactly what they want on the site. Oh, and stand by
for our next Chapter of iStopOver in the next short while……
It's new. Get your board meeting members on different office every meeting. Just a space from your room.
