Like most creative, inspired individuals, you’re either in the process of conceptualizing new ideas, solutions, and projects or you’re bringing those brainstormed ideas to fruition. Where is it that you meet clients, stare at the blank screen until drops of blood form on your forehead, and add another completed project to your portfolio? Is it at an overcrowded corner coffee shop, from your dining room table, or in some stuffy, windowless office somewhere? It’s time to sport your thinking cap in the company of other like-minded, brilliant, and beautiful thinkers, dreamers, and doers; it’s time to secure a boutique office space.

A Collaborative Atmosphere of Other Livewires

Collaborative work spaces are a non-traditional brick-and-mortar space that is designed for the spark, launch, and flight of all those Why-didn’t-I-think-of-that ideas. Take advantage of the collaborative atmosphere, meet some really cool people, tap into their insights and perspectives while designing that next new thing of yours. Rub elbows in the shared space or use a private office. This unique business atmosphere is a tremendous way to get your product in front of others who may be in need of what you have, or know someone who is. So, you’ve got a built-in marketing machine as well!

Yes, You Do Need an Office

One of the many unique aspects of shared office space is that you can join at the level that’s right for you – wherever it is you are on your professional path. Sign up for the Coworking Space or a Dedicated Desk. When you’re ready for a private office, bump up to that level. Private meeting rooms are equipped with phone lines and presentation equipment. You can also get just a mailing address.

No Lease is a Good Lease

With most shared space offices, there’s no lease to sign. You simply join at a specific membership-service level and agree to those terms. Sign up for a month, a year, or longer. You’re right where you ought to be in your creative career – in the driver’s seat.

Where Barstool Ideas Come to Fly

If you feel like you’re not quite ready to hang that proverbial shingle, some shared office space locations offer special programs that can benefit you. This is where new entrepreneurs receive advice, tools, and resources to get their businesses up and running. So, if you need help with a business plan, market research, or other areas, this is for you.

All That and a Bag of (BBQ) Chips

In addition to the exciting, creative, and inspiring atmosphere, here are some of the other benefits of moving your business to a share business space: a receptionist, virtual office setup, Wifi, kitchen, a fully-furnished office space, phone booths, B&W/color prints, copies, scans, networking events, shared learning opportunities, and, of course – complimentary coffee, water, and BBQ chips.

At a facility that offers a shared business space, you truly get the best of both worlds – all the tangible resources you would expect in an office environment and bottomless cups of creative energy. Once you visit a shared office space, you’ll ask yourself “What wasn’t I thinking?”and wonder how you ever got any projects done from your front porch or the local watering hole.
