6 Reasons To Have A Dedicated Workspace
The expectations of working in a traditional office environment are long gone. Remote workers, freelancers and entrepreneurs are changing the workforce, eliminating the need for office space and a typical 9-5 workday. Working from home or your favorite coffee shop may sound ideal at first, but it’s important to address the frustrations it comes with. At THE SANDBOX, we often hear the challenges of separating work from home, isolation, distractions and lack of accountability. Coffee shops have their own obstacles such as busyness, distractions, small workspaces and few charging stations. These problems have led to the rise of coworking spaces.
THE SANDBOX offers a number of private workspace options. Private desks and offices are the best of both worlds. You have a private, quiet space to call your own with all of the benefits of the community coworking space. You’re able to personalize your space, leave your belongings overnight, interact with other members, all while enjoying a flexible membership plan.
We have private workspaces available now at THE SANDBOX! Come in for a tour, send us an email, or find more information here. Keep reading to see our top 6 reasons to have a private workspace at THE SANDBOX.
1. Sense Of Community
Working by yourself can get pretty lonely. Coworking spaces surround you with like-minded, hard-working professionals. There are plenty of opportunities to meet and catch up with other members throughout the day, whether it’s during our Member’s Happy Hour or while you’re pouring a cup of coffee. Even with your own private space, you’ll develop a sense of belonging by surrounding yourself with other professionals and having the ability to socialize at your convenience.
2. Increase In Productivity
Coworking spaces encourage consistent work structures and allow you to separate your personal and professional life. It’s easy to start your workday late when you work from home. Coworking spaces provide accountability to stick to a work routine in a distraction-free environment. Removing yourself from interruptions such as piles of laundry, pets and the television will help you focus and work efficiently. Additionally, surrounding yourself with other motivated professionals will encourage you to stay productive.
3. Flexibility
A membership at THE SANDBOX includes no deposits, upfront fees, or long term contracts (unless of course, you want one and a slight discount). Our memberships are month-t0-month and allow you to cancel with 30 days notice. You’re also welcome to change your membership type based on your needs and schedule. As your team expands you can also add 24/7 coworking memberships for your team at any time. In some cases at a reduced rate.
4. Amenities And Perks With A Private Workspace
Our private workspaces come with a number of amenities that include 24/7 access, adjustable height desks, executive office chairs, two hours of free meeting room time a month and much more. You’re also welcome to customize your space and leave your belongings overnight. Having a private workspace includes all of the benefits of our coworking space. Our kitchen is stocked with fresh coffee, tea, and other beverages on tap and our favorite snacks on Friday mornings. You’re also welcome to join our Member’s Happy Hour every Wednesday afternoon and attend public events happening in our space.
5. Increase Brand Awareness
Getting to know others in your career field or finding like-minded people in your city can be difficult. At a coworking space, you have a network of members to meet who can be your supporters and advocates. They’ll become familiar with your services and can share it with others. Your logo will also be placed on the door of your dedicated space, allowing people to see it during the day and at events.
6. Networking Opportunities
One of the greatest advantages of working in a coworking space over a home office or coffee shop is the opportunity to connect with other members. These relationships can create great opportunities for advice, referrals, new leads and knowledge sharing both for business and for adventure and fun. You’ll be in close proximity with people outside of your field and potentially in the same line of work. You never know who you’ll meet in at THE SANDBOX.
