Launching Your Business in a Coworking Space
Are you hoping to make that big breakthrough with your business but aren't sure how to get there? Or maybe your business is still just an idea, and you're wondering how to bring it to life. Well, look no further! At CityCentral, we make it our mission to help start-ups find and execute a game plan that works for them and their prized vision.
Join us as we walk you through the journey of launching your business in our coworking space, exploring key details like flexibility, scalability, convenience, and how we plan to accommodate your business growth.
Benefits of Coworking Spaces
First, let’s start with the most notable advantages of operating out of a coworking space. One of the first benefits most business owners think of is cost-effectiveness.
The biggest perk of leasing a coworking space is that you can customize your membership to fit your budget and level of commitment. By becoming a member, you can enjoy access to excellent amenities and administrative services, which means you won't have to hire assistants to streamline operations.
Another major perk of a coworking membership is flexibility and scalability. If you just need a Google verifiable address to increase your online presence or a mailbox to keep your business mail separate, the baseline virtual address package is the way to go.
Make the Most of The Coworking Experience
Research and Selection
Now that you're aware of the benefits, it’s time to map out the first steps to starting your business in one of our coworking spaces. Consider factors such as location, surrounding neighborhoods, cost-effectiveness, and amenities.
Virtual Address Setup
Once you've determined where you'd like to open an office, it may be a good idea to start with a virtual address and work your way up. A virtual office gives you a Google-verifiable business address and mail handling for your business.
Starting at just $50 a month, this package boosts your online presence and is a solid first step to building clientele. Once you've gone through the process of Google verification and have an online presence, you can then make official business cards, create social media platforms, and get your name out there.
Evaluate Business Growth & Upgrade
Now that you've gotten comfortable with the virtual address and business is looking sharp, it may be time to consider upgrading. When it’s time to upgrade, you can look forward to a seamless upgrading process with CityCentral.
Let's talk about some affordable in-person membership options:
24/7 Coworking - This membership option grants you 24/7 access to the open coworking areas at all CityCentral locations. With this membership, you can experience flexibility on your own schedule at your own pace.
Day Office Package - with this package, you can rent out a private Day Office for 8 or 16 designated days out of the month. Get the privacy and convenience of a private office without the cost or commitment!
Meeting Room package - This membership grants you access to any meeting room at any CityCentral location for 8, 16, or 24 hours out of the month. You can choose to allocate those hours however you see fit.
Transitioning to Private Space
A few months pass, and business is booming - your online presence has skyrocketed, and your budget continues to grow. With this new success, it may be time to start looking at physical space to accomplish new things.
Our seamless upgrading process allows you to move from a virtual address to a private office lease with no headaches. Once you're in the new office, all logistics and operations remain the same - all you need to do is sign an "upgrade" agreement to reflect your new space.
Take Advantage of Networking Opportunities
Lastly, no matter which membership you choose, it is important you take advantage of the networking and resource-building tools provided at CityCentral.
Attend Events - Attending community events like workshops, fireside chats, lunch and learns, or just seasonal gatherings is a great way to meet community members of all industries, learn more about the business scene in your area, and build your resources.
Engage Community Members - Another great way to build relationships is to talk over lunch, host a casual meet and greet session, or interact organically on a lunch break. Who knows - maybe you'll meet a future business partner!
