[Coworking] Re: How to organise a launch party or event to generate leads?

We did a bunch of pre-launch Facebook posts/advertising/tours (even during 
construction!)
We initially joined the local chamber since they provide some good support 
and bring a small group of people to your grand opening and do the 
traditional ribbon cutting.
We offered free coworking so people could come try it out and have had 
great success with that. We still run free coworking promotions often and 
usually get new members from it or great referrals.
I also reached out to any organizations that might be interested in what we 
were doing. People got really excited about it and helped spread the word. 
We put up flyers all around town especially at certain cafes known for 
startups and tech meetups, organizations like the Small Business 
Development Center were also great places to get the word out...
Craigslist still brings in leads!
Meetup.org also brings people in so we post our events there.

I had great success in doing a drawing for a free month of membership. 
People wrote their names, email addresses and why they wanted to cowork on 
slips of paper. We had a grand prize winner and then I also gave a free 
month to everyone else who entered because why not?!
