Ryan, Alex and Glen- Thank you for the responses. All very helpful information. I think I am going to keep it simple, maybe only 3 tiers and include copies. I'm in Kansas City, Missouri and the space is called Cowork Waldo (in the Waldo district). I just signed the lease last week but have already been developing the community. I'm highly active in the Waldo Business Association and have a lot of contacts in the area. There's a lot of buzz surrounding it. There's nothing like this near us so people are pretty excited. In KC there are only 3 or 4 other coworking spaces and they are mostly downtown, we're a little south of there.

Before that, as we are getting it ready, I think I will have some happy hour/open houses to increase the buzz. I need to get some cosmetic things done first. Thanks again for the advice. I see where you are located so stay safe out there! The entire U.S. is thinking and praying for everyone on the East Coast!
