2011-10-24 Thread Will Bennis
We have a student "fellowship" along with a fellowship application. Basically we give 50% off the long-term (6 mo. or longer) commitment price, but limit the membership to 1 semester (with the option to renew). The student needs to be working on or preparing to work on a thesis/dissertation, and th

The #Occupy movement has spread to many cities around the world, and I'm curious to know if any coworking facilities are being affected by protests or occupation. This is the current view outside of our windows, about 1/4 of the park; it is now Tent City whic

Allison, as someone who would like to start a space in the Fort Worth, Texas area, stories like yours concern me.  I know the need and potential are there for metropolitan areas but it seems such a struggle to grow a base. Have you reached out to people who have left and asked them why?  I would

Allison, I have yet to open my place, or heck, even start it! But if I can suggest reading Alex from Indyhall's great essay on how to start and fund a place, it will still work. Run "Free days!" "Try out days!" Build a community, not a virtual office. What do you and the other tenant do? Any

[Coworking] Working on fixing low attendance

2011-10-24 Thread Angel Kwiatkowski
We've had record low attendance at Cohere in the past 4 months so we've started a new Occupy Cohere campaign. No matter your politics, I think the message inside is important and wanted to share it with everyone in case you'd like to do something similar at your space. http://coherecommunity.com/bl

I don't think we've been affected directly by OWS but I think that our town is finally in the throws of the recession. For the first time since we opened, people have left Cohere saying "it's just not in the budget anymore." Ouchy. On Oct 24, 12:04 pm, rachel young wrote: > The #Occupy movement h
