What small business moves into a space that closes at 6pm? Certainly 
nobody who has deadlines that merit the occasional all nighter.

I have been receiving many inquiries about after hours events (ending 
later than 6:30) and wanted to know what your typical protocol is. 
Since these aren't always members looking to host late night meetings, 
I can't decide if the space needs to be staffed until they are done. 
Does anybody else staff the space for specific events or do you trust 
these non member users to leave at the end of their time?


Thanks!

We are typically unstaffed 6AM - 9PM without issue as members keep an eye
on the place as your community grows.

These guys have done several coworking insurance deals. They understand the 
concept and are happy to jump on the phone to figure out exactly what you 
need.

http://www.nicholashillgroup.com/coworkinginsurance/

Just a point of reference, my insurance is $550 a year using Hartford 
Insurance. I have used it once when my car was broken into and they took my 
laptop and bag. It was easy to make the claim. I have never had to use it 
for the actual coworking space.

[Coworking] Finding Reasonable Insurance required by Co-working operator

2018-09-26 Thread Susan Murphy
Hi - I just secured a co-working desk in Westchester County, NY and am 
required to provide a COI. I have a single desk, no office equipment or 
staff and have received insurance quotes for $647 and $740 which seem 
outrageous to me. I've read prior discussions in the group and understand 
that a lot of agents aren't familiar with the co-working concept. That 
said, I'd welcome any recommendations for agents who do understand the 
co-working model and could provide reasonable quotes. Thanks in advance! 
Enjoy the day!

[Coworking] Re: Does anyone keep statistics?

2018-09-26 Thread Ramon Suarez
When I was running Betacowork I published these stats taken out of the 
first 5 years of 
operations: https://www.betacowork.com/5-years-of-betacowork-the-numbers/ 
The most surprising part was the spread of sectors (we started as a tech 
oriented coworking space).

We/they keep some records of what they do in their profiles 
 (you only see the public ones 
through this link, but members see all the current members). To keep 
updated on the projects and remember them you have to talk to them often. 
If anything is outstanding, keep it in a list that you can refer to and 
blog about it!
