Hello, As I am still in the research phase to determine if my coworking space could be viable in a smaller town in eastern Idaho, I had a few questions/thoughts that I would appreciate some feedback and discussion with the experts:
1. Do you think a lower pricing strategy (possibly $50 a month for a monthly membership, sitting anywhere) is a viable option? Could a coworking facility be successful on that pricing strategy alone? Just $50, simple as that... 2. What are your thoughts on sponsors in your space? What value can I promote to the potential sponsors/advertisers that would make them pay a fee for advertising and resource space within the community? What value does my coworking space have to the sponsors? 3. Have you ever considered partnerships and alliances with local organizations and have them pay the fee and give access to their members. For example, is it better to target the students of a local college, or go directly to the college and secure a contract with the organization, which in turn gives everyone access? 4. What is the standard principle for a full time desk? I envision a section of my space for the full time desk that could be close to $100 a month. What would one expect with a full time space? 5. Have any of you explored partnerships with organizations in the business community? For example, partnering to offer a Chamber of Commerce Networking membership with the purchase of a coworking membership? You guys are awesome! I look up to so many of you and want to bring this type of innovation to my hometown! As I am only 21, but not an inexperienced entrepreneur, I want to go in extremely prepared before I open my space!
