anymore. Is it still possible to get these information about the costs ?

Cheers.

Re: [Coworking] Coworking Space Founders- How much does it cost to start a space?

2011-01-31 Thread Alex Hillman
We shared a detailed by the numbers post for Indy Hall with Gigaom - and
then on our own blog - that you should be able to glean your numbers from:

http://www.indyhall.org/blog/2010/08/06/indy-hall-by-the-numbers/

Our smartest cost-saving measure was including our members in our buildout
process. We saved immensely on human labor for things like painting and
running network wires because members had interest in contributing to the
space construction - not only did this save us money, but it gave those
members an immensely strong bond to the space, and a sense of ownership that
is unparalleled. That process has saved us upfront costs as well as
long-term administrative costs, all of which allow us to keep our monthly
rates ridiculously low.

 Why not just start a thread here and get actual feedback from people
 who have been through all this before. This way i can get some great
 material for a killer blog post and this can also be an informative
 thread for people who are thinking about opening their own coworking
 space.

 So here are my questions for anyone who has started a coworking
 space :

 1)How much did it cost you to start your community coworking space?

 2)What was the cost breakdown?

 3)Were there any surprise costs which you never considered?

 4)If you has to do it again how would you spend differently?

 5)What were your smartest cost saving measures?

 6)What is your biggest on-going cost?

 Please add any more questions you can think of!

[Coworking] Coworking Space Founders- How much does it cost to start a space?

2011-01-30 Thread Michael
I was thinking about writing a blog article about the costs of
starting a coworking space on my website and I thought what the hell?
Why not just start a thread here and get actual feedback from people
who have been through all this before. This way i can get some great
material for a killer blog post and this can also be an informative
thread for people who are thinking about opening their own coworking
space.

So here are my questions for anyone who has started a coworking
space :

1)How much did it cost you to start your community coworking space?

2)What was the cost breakdown?

3)Were there any surprise costs which you never considered?

4)If you has to do it again how would you spend differently?

5)What were your smartest cost saving measures?

6)What is your biggest on-going cost?

Please add any more questions you can think of!
