Thanks HIlary, I'm in Dallas and many people that contact me are entirely unfamiliar with coworking, but very intrigued by the benefits (friendly community, no commitment, no setup cost).
That's why I thought it might make sense to try and hit the people looking for traditional office space and just inform them of an alternative that might work better for them. I'm starting to have some luck from my craigslist ads and haven't tried LoopNet yet. I'm also considering going to nearby apt complexes that don't have business centers and offering a referral fee to their property managers if they send me their residents. Will keep this thread updated if I find any success through these methods. Thanks once again for sharing your thoughts on this, oren On Thursday, January 3, 2013 10:13:07 AM UTC-6, Hillary/Geek Offices wrote: > > Hi Oren, > At Geek Offices in Cambridge and Newton MA, we have been successful with > Craigslist.
