GCUC was such an awesome conference – coming from tech startup land some conferences can just be – who’s on your board – how much have you raised, how many on your team blah blah blah for a product that doesn’t even exist! So my space was a co-working space but I was focusing on “startups and entrepreneurs” coz that is what I know<\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>GCUC showed me a bigger picture of what co-working can and should be. I want my space to be full and to run without me running it, so I started thinking about all the things I needed for this to happen and who was going to pay for it. <\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>I got my foyer pimped and a mag lock door installed (paid by a sponsorship) <\/span>
\n<\/span>I went over the books and looked at what was working, and what was needed, I got rid of an “event space” and turned it into 4 semi work stations (booked by the month) they got leased in under a day!<\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>I put my blinkers on and had a real think about what this space could and should be not what I want it to be \u2026 based on all the info and inspo from GCUC so I let go of my “startup\/entrepreneur” as my main focus<\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>I am working on corporate sponsorship packages just now for the next year and instead of me doing classes all over the place, we will do them offsite – the community is building but the space is a space to work, all the other warm and fuzzy stuff, networking and events will offsite<\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>My fave thing from GCUC was the mediation we kicked off with, so we will be doing a mediation and mindfulness sesh in the space<\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>I have my hotdesks on liquid space all my other desks are leased by the month and have just got the next 12 months signed off<\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>Oh and this new focus has shifted the tenants I attract, I have remote workers hot desking, just signing up, paying and coming – where as to get a local to hot desk it was like 17 emails to try and convince them, so yes definitely found my ideal client! <\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>I could go on and on, so many things and even though I walked away mega inspired, they did take a while to implement – but it is all done now and I feel so good, totally different outlook on co-working and I am really happy!<\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>So thank you and GCUC you are awesome and yes I am trying really hard to get to NYC!<\/span>
\n<\/span>
