Thank you all for your responses. It's really valuable feedback and helps to highlight some important things for me.
Mike, your story is a good reality check about baseline viability. I don't think I have the numbers and there's still a lot of economic uncertainty looking forward. Also I'm foremost a "creative" and "activist" which is often in conflict with business pragmatics. Laura, thank you, you've addressed the nitty-gritty in exactly the way I needed. I had provided "service" with attention to detail, well stocked in the amenities and other little extras - including cleaning up after them. I was fully prepared to continue that service. But they've worn me down with their haggling and blase attitude. You're right though – that is their business focus and not something to take personally. So it's pretty clear – taking Angel's advice... lay out the proposal to them. My business focus is to increase the monthly rate and reset the boundaries. Those are my terms and they are free to look elsewhere. This brings everything back into line with my initial costings and puts me back on track to appraise the viability. -- Visit this forum on the web at http://discuss.coworking.com --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Coworking" group.
