Thanks, Tony! While I agree to some extent that teams can take up a bit more in terms of space & energy (and occasionally way too much of it), I don't think that all teams fall into that situation. It was actually when we were discussing pricing changes and addressing teams that we looked arou

Hi Susan - your new website looks great - clean and inviting! I just opened a coworking space in Chicago, Free Range Office, and I was interested in your pricing structure, as I'm struggling with what to charge "teams". For example, I have someone in a semi-private space who brought on two ot
