It sounds like you've got a pretty tiny space. Putting in a dedicated
meeting space would mean carving out a chunk that you can pretty safely
assume won't be used 100% of the time.

Think creatively. How often are your members going to need to meet? What
kind of client meetings? What do they *actually* need? Is there somewhere
nearby that could be used for meetings, separate from the shared workspace?

Again, given the size of your space, I would think carefully about this.
People who spend a lot of time on the phone can really struggle, and cause
struggles, for other coworkers. We've gotten better (though we're still not
great) for people who spend time on the phone, but when people tour and ask
about making phone calls, we suggest that if they have days where they know
they're going to be on the phone a lot that Indy Hall isn't the best place
for them to be. Instead, they come to Indy Hall on days where they know
they're going to spend less (or no) time on the phone.

That way when they're here, they end up getting to enjoy Indy Hall a lot
more, rather than being holed up in a phone booth all day.
