Testing Coworking In A Small Office Space

If you’ve ever looked at your underused office and thought, “Could this work as a coworking space?”, you’re not alone. In this video, I break down whether it makes sense to test coworking in a small space (around 640 square feet), and what factors will make or break your experiment. While boutique coworking can thrive, launching in a small footprint comes with unique challenges that you’ll want to understand before you dive in. What we cover: - Why small, cozy coworking spaces can work — but only with intentional design and a clear niche - How location, neighborhood amenities, and local demand affect your chances of success - Why marketing and a clear sales funnel matter, even if you’re only trying to attract 20 members - The challenge of creating a “minimum viable product” in coworking without sacrificing aesthetics and community - Low-risk ways to test your idea, including founding member commitments and a simple website This is a must-watch if you’re considering coworking as a way to monetize unused office space.
