232. Ten Coworking Flight Group Tips from 2021


Listen Later

I run a mastermind program for coworking operators called the “Flight Group.” Usually, what happens in the Flight Group stays in the Fight Group. But I thought it would be a good time of year to share a few nuggets from our Flight Group members to get you thinking about what you might pursue in your coworking business in 2022.

So I pulled together 10 nuggets or tips shared by our Flight Group members this year.

Here they are, in no particular order:

1. Close for the full week between Christmas and New Year’s Eve.

2. Charge setup fees.

3. Put urgency behind your email promotions.

4. Invest in your team - Think creatively about how to support them. sign them up for Community Manager University.

5. Use interns! 

6. Steal my community manager, pay a finder’s fee.

7. Get an “Owl” for your meeting room.

8. Have a team office you can’t sell? Make it a shared private office of dedicated desks.

9. Focus on building your virtual office and digital mail program.

10. Test stuff and don’t be afraid to fail!
