Hi Everyone, I'm so sorry-I'm totally new to google groups and didn't even realise that I had gotten these responses! Thank you so much for your help!
Hi Tony, I'm in the UK, London. Your post was really helpful and I will definitely consider everything you have said! Hi Alex, what I mean is that I work at an office with four spare desks; we're looking for people who would be interested in renting out the desks. We're in a great location with good amenities but I've been having trouble trying to find people who would be interested (and I know that they're out there!) Hi Jeannine, you're exactly right. We have some empty desks and we're looking for people who would be interested; that's really all it is! It's just been really challenging and any advice I can get would be greatly helpful. *Thank you everyone for your responses!* On Wednesday, October 26, 2016 at 2:33:19 PM UTC+1, Prisc wrote: > > Hi there, > > I may have already posted this but I couldn't find it-I'm new here. > Apologies if I have. > > I understand that hiring a desk in a company versus hiring a desk in a > huge coworking building (like the ones wework establishes) are both in some > ways quite different; or are they? > > From what I understand, people tend to look into coworking when they want: > > *-To set a routine for their lives and their work as self employed > individuals* > *-To work alongside like minded people or those in the same position* > *-To network with others* > *-To be a part of a bigger community* > > So my question is; how do you promote the idea of desk spaces in a company > versus in a community of freelancers?
