Re: [Coworking] Insurance

Hi Joshua. A PEO is an interesting option that I've been exploring. Tri-Net is becoming popular among tech firms and several coworking spaces I know of in California. For what you describe, I like MBO Partners. You basically only pay your monthly "fee" when you generate revenue, so it's quite id

[Coworking] Did you start a successful rural or suburban coworking space (or are you a member at one)? This Quora question is looking for examples!
