Hello! My name is Lisa Dimond. My family and I opened ecafe, a coworking coffeehouse, in Overland Park, KS, in October 2016. Here's our website (which is a work-in-progress): www.ecafecoffee.com. We also have another website, www.visitecafe.com, which is in the process of being merged with the coffee one. Originally we thought we needed to be 2 separate entities, but we are now presenting as one.
I mainly run the coffee shop portion of our setup, but I am starting to take over the coworking space as well. I am really interested in how to build community in our space. Everything I read talks about building community as one of the top priorities in a coworking space. I just don't know where to start. I need specific examples, please. Do I hold workshops? If so, how do I go about finding them? Do I charge for them, or make them free? I want to hold networking events, but don't know where to start. I don't want them to be stuffy and fake; I want it to feel natural. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Coworking" group.
