What I don't see on your list is: - IT: IT services, IT equipment like printer, access points, routers, internet connectivity, etc - Security: Alarm services or access control (depending on size of the space) - Maintenance: I'd add a maintenance budget for fixing the broken toilet, repairing the coffee spill that dripped through the floor, the broken xyz, etc - Marketing: Having your website hosted somewhere, your email marketing program, SEO or paid advertising if you do that On Thursday, September 15, 2016 at 7:22:43 PM UTC-4, Cecilia Neher wrote: > > Hello all, > We are working on a business plan for a coworking space in Washington DC > and I'm wondering if we are leaving something out in the list of monthly > costs. > Would you mind telling me if there is something missing from this list? > > > - Rent > - Taxes > - Electricity > - Water (is this significant?) > - Phone/Internet > - Insurance > - Cleaning > - Salaries > - Administration software > > I'm not sure if adding coffee, sugar, etc, and office supplies.
