Do you sometimes feel like you need to get out of the house in order to focus on your work? If so, you’re not alone. Many people are choosing to cowork in order to take advantage of the many benefits that come with it. In this blog post, we will discuss the top 5 benefits of shared workspace and why it’s on the rise!
Low Overheads
Many of us have seen depictions of the 80’s cliché corner office over the years but in reality, businesses have to be more budget conscious. And rightly so! The benefits of a shared workspace are that you only need to pay for the space you use, rather than renting or buying an entire office. This can amount to big savings and gives business owners the opportunity to reinvest their money back into their business.
Flexibility
Short contract options may be best to meet your business needs. Businesses may or may not know how long a space might be needed for, especially through “quiet seasons”. By having the ability to cowork in a shared space, you can have some flexibility and not be tied down by a long-term lease.
Networking Opportunities
Being around like-minded and passionate individuals can create such serendipitous circumstances. If you’re seeking advice, looking for collaborators or simply want to make friends in your industry- shared workspaces are ideal. It allows for a certain level of comfort and trust as you’re all there for the same reasons, to get work done!
Shared Resources
In most cases, shared workspaces will have some resources that members can take advantage of. This might include access to printers, scanners, and other office equipment. More importantly, it’s a great way to save on costs as you don’t need to purchase these items for your home office or invest in a commercial space that has them.
Community Events
When you cowork in shared spaces, you have the opportunity to participate in community events. These events might include workshops, networking happy hours, or even just social gatherings. This is a great way to meet new people and learn new things!
As you can see, there are many benefits to coworking in a shared space. If you’re looking for an alternative to working from home or renting a traditional office, shared workspace might be the perfect solution for you! Contact us today to learn more about our shared workspace options.
