Freedom to rent
Increasingly, I am convinced that what most people consider interesting in co-working is weakly correlated with its real advantages. “Renting a place for chipping”, “communal office” is only the external side, and co-working here really does not differ much from, say, small business centers that rent out a toilet for 2-3 people.
Let me list the real advantages. And you will agree or not with this interpretation of the idea.
The main advantages for coworkers:
- synergistic environment and a kind of subculture
- the ability to quickly select a team for the task
- comfortable atmosphere
- collective experience, connections and portfolio
- public services such as the use of equipment, accounting, Internet, etc.
')
The main advantages for businessmen:
the presence of a self-organized structure of professional freelancers, which:
- it is able to outsource almost any projects at prices 2-3 times lower than the market average
- does not require expenditures for the provision of a workplace and monitoring the progress of work
- does not require (in general) full legal and accounting ordering
Basic principles of movement:
- cooperation
- openness
- sociality
- sustainability
- availability
The most important points to focus on are:
- outsourcing for business
- collaboration of free professionals
- shared resources and the possibility of "quick start" for beginners
- practical training in teamwork skills, making personal portfolio
- comfortable and creative atmosphere
The most frequent incorrect points that are considered to be reference:
- rent a workplace at an affordable price
- the ability to use special resources (intercom, safes, kitchen, etc.)
- beautiful office, convenient location
Incorrect business model:
The main source of income is rent and services. The organizer himself determines the cost of renting places and using services, including the cost of his work and the need to recoup the investment. Coworkers are generally unrelated. Cash flows are opaque.
Slogan: “Pay for rent and solve your problems yourself”
Right business model:
The main source of income is community orders. The cost of rent depends only on the cost of renting the premises and rent, no extra charges are made. The negotiated percentage is taken from the attracted orders for the development of the office and the payment of the organizer's work. Coworkers are interested in establishing relationships and working together on orders. Cash flows are transparent.
Slogan: “Buffer between coworker, customer and problems”
The most attractive moment:
Lack of strict rules, external restrictions and annoying factors, while expanding the range of possibilities. The ability to maintain independence in matters of their professional activities and outsource the problems that accompany it.
