The coffee kiosk is subletting the space. It doesn't fully subsidize the rent on the whole space by any means, but it certainly helps. This is their first physical location, but they've been roasting for some time now. They'll have some outdoor seating, but mostly it's a 'to go' coffee counter.
The members don't get free coffee, though - but they are doing a special 'Workantile Blend' for us (and will likely have some kind of discount or punch card or something like that in the future). One other note on the financial end of things. Our membership fee is only $100 a month, but because of the community-oriented structure (no personal desks and so on), we can have a lot more members than we could if the space was parceled out individually. We're not sure how many will be the maximum, but we're starting out with a few dozen to build the personality of the group and establish some community norms, and then we'll add a few more people a month until it feels full. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Coworking" group.
