Hi all, As I'm reading through all the coworking discussions, I have a few questions:
1) Are you operating your coworking facility/office space solely as a "for profit business" or are you just gathering a bunch of like-minded people to help share in the cost of the rent? 1a) and did you receive a great deal from the landlord that you know very well (friend or family) because vacancy rates are probably at all time high? While I've heard some people with a coworking office/business say, "We are profitable"... 2) If so, are you doing this 100% as a for profit business and paying yourself and other employees (not including spouse, children or other family members who will work for peanuts) from this coworking business? 3) Or, are you having to run another business within the coworking office space (say a marketing consulting services company), thus combining both incomes to satisfy the "take home pay" range in order to support you and your family? I'd be curious to hear from those who are Coworking as "True Coops" and those who are in it as a "For Profit" business. Right now, I'm on the fence.
