I use legal shield and it is good for contract review and much more.  I was
also thinking of offering it to members as well.

Re: [Coworking] SMALL SPACE OWNERS -- HELP!! How to make money in a small space ?

2019-01-08 Thread Tamika Washington
I have a small space also.  11 desk, we seat  can 25 at one time at desk
and a few comfy chairs throughout.  I have one small office we are going to
advertise for office space and one meeting room that holds up to six.  We
added a virtual membership plan, which is popular and later this month we
are adding late days. Our space is still new so we've been holding small
events to allow people to gather in the space.  And we've had a lot of
inquiries about using the space for events.

Re: [Coworking] Inspiring Young Entrepreneurs: Using Our Spaces for Good

2018-12-12 Thread Tamika Washington
I am an educator at heart with over 13 years as an educator.  Many of my
friends are teachers and what we often hear in teacher circles is the need
for self-care and wanting to be appreciated.  Starting in 2019, we will
offer free coworking days for educators to use our space to plan and meet
with their colleagues.  On the weekends, we have paint and sip classes so
we're partnering with a Title 1 school to giveaway some free passes as
teacher and parent incentives.  We are planning some type of event for
teacher appreciation week. Just not sure what it is as of today.  During
Back to School season, we will host a supply drive and book drive for a
local school near our space.

Several of the high schools in our area wanted to partnerships with local
small businesses to support their Entrepreneur initiatives for the Career
Magnet programs so we are working on a partnership with a local high
school.

Our space just opened so I would love to hear what others have to say about
owning a coworking space.
