Diary of a Coworking Space Manager / Small Business Owner #0008 - Noticed that a bunch of events we're hosting around the same time all had similar slants and decided to rally them all up to create the first ever "tuesday Business Week": tinyurl.com/tbw2024 - Assembled 8 chairs and put the finishing touches on our new, ready-to-go "Light" meeting room at Düsseldorfer Strasse (see below): tinyurl.com/duessel75 - Finally added LinkedIn to our list of channels for event promotion. Here's our fairly standard "stack": Eventbrite, Facebook, Instagram, Mailchimp for externals, Gmail for internals (members), Slack for current and former members, tuesday's website, physical postering in the spaces, and now, yes, LinkedIn. Where do you promote your events? Any glaring omissions? https://lnkd.in/eS77f_tW - Kept calm and carried on wearing my "keep calm and carry on" t-shirt in the face of the election result :/ - Worked out the monthly revenue share for October that one of our landlords gets as part of our revenue share deal. Great for your cashflow at the beginning of your partnership. Long-term it's a bit of a pain to be honest.

Unreasonable Connection - The World's Smallest Coworking Event. ✋We're launching a new regular online event for the London Coworking Assembly folks. You know how most online events are—either a barrage of sales pitches or the kind of ‘networking’ that makes you wish your Wi-Fi would cut out. Enter Unreasonable Connection, a place where coworking community builders like you can meet, share stories, and, It's not about pitches or panels; it's about connecting with others at the same crossroads, sharing unexpected insights, and forging connections that lead to real change. The one thing people always say about London Coworking Assembly events is: 'Meeting other people on the same journey as me was the best thing!' So here is how Unreasonable Connection rolls: No sponsors No pitches No demos or glitches No speeches No panels or banter No paid product placers No Slack, WhatsApp, or Facebook chasers No homework or courses to pursue No free templates or e-books to review No follow-up spam with offers that skew Go and join the waitlist to be on the very very very small invite list when tickets are released - https://lnkd.in/dtp2Ec8J

👉 Revive Your Coworking Space with a Simple Email Newsletter If you struggle to keep your coworking space buzzing, the answer is not more work; it's less work. One of the most valuable things you have is a weekly email newsletter. But everyone overthinks it in their weekly email newsletter. You can email hundreds or even thousands of people every week. In that case, those people have opted in and are already in your community. And if you repeat this process, just like going to the gym, the more often you go, the easier it gets. So you have to send four easy pieces of information. - What happened? - What is gonna happen? - An event. - Something about a member. And that's it, with a few lines about each thing because you're not producing the next great American novel; you're sending a little note to people. If you can put it on the bulletin board in your coworking space, you can certainly include it in the weekly email newsletter. It works like this: Find those four things this week and then look for them again next week. You can even repeat things! 🔔 Boost your coworking & community-building skills with my 2-minute daily email: follow the link in my bio. Have a remarkable day. Be careful out there. It is a jungle. #coworking #communityisthekey #coworkinglondon

"Unsubscribapalooza" is a 90 minute coworking event dedicated to digital decluttering, in service of giving you space. Register: https://lnkd.in/g3C_Mgwz You might use it to: • Unsubscribe from emails you never open (hence the name) • Unfollow or mute social profiles that aren’t relevant (or don’t make you feel good) • Clear your calendar of meetings, events, or commitments that you're ready to let go • Organize or delete files on your hard drive, in your downloads folder, in your Dropbox. Unsubscribapalooza is for creating more "room of your own" to do your deepest, bestest, most valuable work. There is something nearly magical about how much you can accomplish during dedicated time, and that's why I'm hosting Unsubscribapalooza. I know it will be valuable for me (at the very least!) and hopefully for you as well. See you there? Register: https://lnkd.in/g3C_Mgwz Image alt text: "Unsubscribapalooza April 3 2024 for the digitally deluged" on a dark blue background. A turquoise button reads "see link in post"

Big thank you to Coworking Whistler for the shout-out. Congratulations on all the success. "After a couple years being in business running Coworking Whistler on a shoe-string budget we finally decided to put proper investment into a software + platform to help us better manage all bookings from daily, weekly or monthly members. We looked at a bunch of different options and settled on Proximity Space - 2 months in now I regret we didn't do this earlier. We've had way more people sign up short term now they can book online without talking to a human - we're probably 200% more in this type of revenue vs. the same month last year with our old "Quickbooks Invoice people and wait" setup... We're now fully shifted to all our invoices going through their platform vs. manually through Quickbooks for our permanent members and it all integrates with QB, Stripe, and Zapier for other stuff. Since we host events regularly it's been awesome to have that all done through the same CRM/platform instead of some random event website - photo of our last event we hosted below for some more reach haha If you're on the fence about costs around a new member management platform - I get it... but I don't regret it now for a second and wish we did it earlier. Whatever solution you find best I'd highly recommend making the move... I definitely recommend Proximity from our experience so far." https://lnkd.in/g-KAmXMx
