The offer for coworking spaces is immense around the world. They have become a great solution for entrepreneurs, freelancers, and small and medium-sized enterprises, thanks to their reduced costs, state-of-the-art technology and democratic space. Amid so many options, it is important to be cautious when choosing the best coworking space.If you choose one that does not fit your profile, it can do more harm than good to your professional performance, making the experience unpleasant to you. With this in mind, we gathered some topics to consider when choosing your coworking space:
Location
Not only should the coworking space be situated near your house, but it should also be in a prestigious neighbourhood and connected with plenty of amenities - banks, restaurants, gyms, coffee shops, parking lots, among others. Remember that this is not just a place where you will be working all day long, but also a place where you will be receiving customers. This is the reason why you need a place that makes a notable first impression.
Community
Make sure that the place is investing in the community. The community will provide new friendships and networking for your business. It is also important that the Coworking Space hosts events, like meetups and presentations, so that you will have the chance to connect with professionals from many different fields of work.
Infrastructure
Even if the decoration of the Coworking Space is modern and elegant, keep in mind that design is not enough. Assess the division of the work tables, private networks, lighting, ventilation, cleaning, internet connection, receptionist services, copy & printing, security, and so on.
Access
Look if the space opens 24/7 or closes in the evening, so that you can plan your time more effectively. The ideal is the Coworking Space that never closes in order to remains flexible for you if necessary.
Contract conditions
Read all the contract clauses carefully to see if there is some restriction or limitation that can impact your business. For example, do you need to rent a space on a daily, weekly, monthly or yearly basis? Besides that, find out what the rent is (per desk or per company), as well as any possible additional costs involved.
Budget
Remember that you are going to prioritize what you need from the Coworking Space to get the best return on the investment. Find something that fits your budget and your business needs.
