Davinci Virtual makes it our business to help entrepreneurs grow their business. There’s a benefit to that: we’re growing ours. What’s good for our clients is also proving to be good for us—we’re growing by leaps and bounds.
In fact, Inc. magazine just announced its 29th annual Inc. 500 ranking of the fastest-growing private companies in the United States. And guess who’s name is on the list? That’s right. Davinci Virtual has made its way onto the Inc. 500 list in 2010 with its virtual office solutions.
Who would have thought a virtual office company would find its way on this list? Bill Grodnik and Martin Senn, to name a couple. The leaders of Davinci Virtual have expressed confidence in the company’s virtual office network model from day one.
“We’re thrilled to have been named by Inc. magazine as one of the nation’s top 500 entrepreneurial companies. It represents tremendous validation of the consistent hard work, innovation and relentless commitment to customer service,” says Bill Grodnik, CEO of Davinci Virtual. “We’ve experienced continued significant growth over the past five years and we are on track to double revenues again this year.”
Wow! Did he say double revenues again? That’s pretty amazing, considering Davinci’s three-year revenue growth is already a whopping 1,899.5 percent. Davinci Virtual ranks number 141 on the list.

On Monday, Japan’s government made promises to kick-start its struggling economy, including new stimulus packages. The global economic crisis has thrust Japan into a recession unlike anything the Asian nation has seen in decades.
If you have a great idea, now is a prime time to expand into Japan. Current interest rates are near zero and there are plenty of incentives for businesses. Japan is even calling for deregulation of energy, healthcare and tourism.

Memphis’ powerful spot on the Mississippi River in the extreme southwest corner of Tennessee and its role as the biggest city in the Mid-South have historically made the city a magnet for attracting people from all over the Delta, Mississippi, Arkansas, West Tennessee, northern Alabama, and Missouri.
Memphis is a great place to set up a virtual office space. Whether you are located in the city of Memphis or in a suburb of this legendary city, a virtual office space is a powerful tool in your business arsenal. A virtual office can enhance the professional image of your business, help you drive more productivity, and save you plenty of money compared to traditional office space.
Davinci Virtual offers three virtual office locations in Memphis. There’s the Memphis Business Center, Memphis Poplar and Executive Offices of Memphis. Let’s take a look at each virtual office location.
The Memphis Business Center is at 1661 International Drive. This is near River Oaks-Kirby-Balmoral and Germantown. You can rent virtual office space at this location from $95 a month. Executive Offices of Memphis is located at 119 S. Main Street. You can rent virtual office space there from $100 a month in the downtown Memphis area.
Finally, Memphis Poplar is located at 6000 Poplar Avenue in the same general neighborhood. This virtual office space rents at prices beginning at $135 a month and include two days of complimentary guest office space use. You can also rent day offices there if you need more than two days.
No matter which Davinci virtual office location you choose in Memphis, you’ll get a prime business address, mail and package receipt, access to the business support center, a lobby greeter who can make your clients and prospects welcome and a client drop off/pick-up point. You can also opt for mail forwarding and shipping services for an additional fee, rent a conference room or rent a day office space.

Gmail just made virtual office users cheer with a new service that brings Voice over Internet Protocol to Gmail and links it to the Google Voice app. All this means you can make telephone calls from your Gmail interface. This is a virtual office user’s dream that will save you time and money on international calls.
Gmail users have been chatting it up using their PC’s mic and speakers via a service called Google Talk since 2005. But until today Gmail users couldn’t dial into land lines. Both Gmail users had to be sitting behind their computers and signed into Gmail at the same time in order to talk. Now virtual office users can dial landlines from their computers any time and anywhere.
“Given that most of us don’t spend all day in front of our computers, we thought, ‘wouldn’t it be nice if you could call people directly on their phones?’ said Google Software Engineer Robin Schriebman. “Starting today, you can call any phone right from Gmail.”
Here’s how it works: You can dial a phone number in the same familiar way you dial a normal phone. Just click “Call phone” at the top of your chat list and dial a number or enter a contact’s name. If you have a Google Voice phone number, calls made from Gmail will display this number as the outbound caller ID. You can also choose to receive calls made to this number right inside Gmail.
Calls to the U.S. and Canada will be free for at least the rest of the year, Google said, and promised calls to other countries will be billed at very low rates. Schriebman said Google worked hard to make international calling rates “really cheap.” Calls to the U.K., France, Germany, China, Japan — and many more countries — for as little as $0.02 per minute.
This is a great complement to the virtual office space. A virtual office space gives you a prestigious office address, mail forwarding, a lobby greeter, access to a business center and much more. Now, virtual office users can slash the cost associated with international phone calls using Google’s new service.

“Business travel just became easier and more profitable for Champion Office Suites’ client base,” Kahn says. “We have already reaped some benefit from the affiliation. An out-of-town company needed an office in Garden City for a meeting and is renting one from us. This is business and exposure that I would not have had without my affiliation with Davinci. And, a prospective client was thrilled that she could use us in Garden City, New York, while her partner in Cincinnati could use an affiliated facility out there.”
