Axon, Would you be willing to share your thoughts on expansion plans and the justification behind them? Scale seems about the only way to make real money with coworking.
The successful spaces I've visited are very "mom and pop". What are your thoughts on opening in a community with a product that wasn't born from the community (e.g. My Day Office)? Thoughts on expansion vs. beefing up coworking visa?
