We've been at it for a couple of years :) We opened with ~20 people, but only 2 of them were full time (and I was one of them).
18 months later we were well over 50, with ~15 full time members. A year later, it's over 140 members total, with ~35 full time. Be diligent, and be patient. That's the only "secret". -Alex /ah indyhall.org coworking in philadelphia On Fri, Apr 16, 2010 at 12:28 PM, Scott < [email protected]> wrote: > We are very close to opening our space (June 1 is the goal) in St Cloud, > MN (Cloud Cowork) and would like to know what your “secrets” are to finding > 30-40 members.
