Denise Reed coworking space trailblazer!
My conversation is with Denise Reed, the CEO of The Concierge Office Suites - Chattanooga, Tennessee. One fantastic savvy business lady!
Conversation highlights:
- You're working in an industry you love, ask for an opportunity to buy the company! That's what happened. Denise bought Concierge Office Suites, a coworking space, in 2006! Big move, bold move. Wait, the story gets bigger!
- What happens when an Angel investor volunteers to assist with financing Denise's new business? Keep listening; this is so cool!
- Does Denise answer the question-are coworking spaces worth it? Valid question seeing that these spaces are becoming quite popular.
- What is the component, the basis for building a coworking space that has continued to serve the community for 25 years? What's Denise's secret to success? Her secret sauce is the "Just in time experience." When a customer comes to The Concierge Office Suites, they expect to have all office resources available to them, thus "anything a traditional office has, it's there at Concierge. Concisely, service is the main ingredient.
Hold onto your chair! This lady, with a background in commercial real estate, also has a FARM! Denise and her husband have run a commercial broiler chicken farm, Wing And A Prayer. Nope, not a small undertaking, Wing And A Prayer operate on 40- acres. But, do know, there are no chicken coops! So, can somebody say, Green Acres! http://denisereed.is/ventures/wing-and-a-prayer/
Know this; more highlights and reasons to visit The Concierge Office Suites.
Denise was vetted and accepted into the National Concierge Association as a Business Concierge in 2021
She says, "surround yourself with smarter people."
"Business is not easy but simple – somebody pays you = a business."
