I've posted this one before (so please forgive me for the repetition). For desks per square feet, I use the following formula:
Break even model: (Cost of space x 1.5 = total cost of space) / (number of square feet / 100 = number of desks) = Cost per desk Profitable model: (Cost of space x 3 = cost of space and then some) / (number of square feet / 100 = number of desks) = Cost per desk Of course, there is wiggle room there to make more money on services, drop ins, conference room rental, event space rental, part time keyholders and other varying levels of membership.
