How Coworking Helps Entrepreneurs
• Coworking spaces provide flexible office space at low cost, and that's always helpful to startups. Membership fees include all amenities, so you don't have to worry about extra costs. At Focal Point Coworking, the affordable memberships include conference and meeting rooms, printing and scanning, high speed internet and unlimited coffee.
Mingle with your peers
• People from different fields working in the same space fosters valuable new business connections. Entrepreneurs work alongside remote workers, established businesses and team managers. Coworkers with different backgrounds and work experience can provide guidance, advice, and connections. Beyond professional connections, you may make a new friend!
• As we interact with folks from different fields, we learn new ways to work. Ideas will spring from casual chats. For larger organizations, working near small business owners and freelancers offers opportunities to collaborate. You could meet new talent, get referrals, or just reach out to brainstorm.

Get noticed
• Coworking spaces can provide exposure for your business. If you're at home, it's hard for potential clients to see that you exist! Visibility spreads by word of mouth and helps businesses grow quickly. At Focal Point, we display member logos on the lobby TV and on our website to create additional buzz. Members can leave their business cards in the lobby or hang a flyer on the bulletin board. Social media is great, but these in-person methods are really important.
A report in the Harvard Business Review found that people who work in a coworking space said they are thriving at level 6 on a 7-point scale. This is over one point higher than the average for employees in traditional offices. Are you thriving in your home office?
• Coworking, as a concept, offers a friendly and relaxed professional environment to break the tedium of working alone. Coworking spaces provide a flexible environment without strict rules. They also promote a positive work-life balance, which is a major advantage for an entrepreneur.
