Set up paid seminars using the expertise of your coworkers. You don't have to charge much. Just keep the interest going and the experts talking. You can pitch your coworking space and memberships along with the seminars, encouraging people to join and solicit (in a community manner) some basic advice from other coworkers as a lead-in to purchasing their services full time.
You can take a % of a variety of things in the process that you think is fair.
