Coworking from our Community Coordinator

Coworking or shared office space continues to be a new and growing way to work.  For some, there is still so much unknown about coworking.  This blog will discuss the reason why coworking has become so popular and answer questions you may have about this new way to work.  Here are the top three reasons to join our Venture X community and how to get the most out of your membership from our community coordinator’s perspective.

Membership Based Agreement- Not a Contract

As the community coordinator, I have given tours to companies and individuals who do not want to be limited by a lease.  They tend to be in growth mode or with plans to grow.  They may only have an individual with big plans or a few people but within months they plan to have upwards of 8 people.  They need the flexibility to grow or constrict as their business changes. 

So how does it work?  Sign-up is a breeze and can take as little at 15 minutes! You’re billed once a month for your membership fees and if you want to cancel, all we ask for is a 60-day notification.  Don’t get stuck in a lease for years!  Venture X has a variety of membership options; everything from a virtual mailbox to a private office space.  Some people like to start with a more basic membership like a shared desk space and then move into a private office as their company grow. Coworking is all about flexibility! With a membership, you get all kinds of awesome amenities that aren’t always included in traditional real estate.

Amenities

We have a variety of coffee and tea available every day all day long. We host happy hours where you have a chance to mingle with other members in the space and network your company. Venture X offers Treat Tuesdays and we host multiple networking groups in our space a couple times a month. You have access to three different conference rooms of varying sizes that have full whiteboard walls and smart TVs that can be used for presentations or video conferencing. Venture X Denver South has mail services, printing and copying services, cleaning service, gym, and onsite security. Our space is always clean and always professional. We have top of the line furniture, including couches, desks and chairs. There is also an onsite gym that members are also able to use at their discretion as well as a super fun food hall opening up that will have a slew of choices which included but are not limited to burgers, BBQ, sushi, a coffee shop, and a full-service bar.  Our most important amenity is our best in class network that includes high-speed internet tailored to your needs.

Success

Working from home can be very beneficial to some folks, however, it can also be very distracting. There are always things to be done around the house, laundry, cleaning, taking the dog for a walk, binge-watching tv shows, etc. Even after your workday is done, you don’t really get to leave your work at work because it’s still sitting in your house. When you work in a coworking space there is less distraction and you’re surrounded by likeminded people, you’re there to focus on work, and when you leave, you can leave your work at the office and head home. I have seen so much success watching people who come in, socialize while grabbing coffee, and having a quiet and clean workspace to focus in. Venture X Denver South has multiple white noises so even when other people are talking it’s not very distracting.  The owners, Michael and Kate, have worked hard to make sure that the acoustics in our space allows all members to have a quiet workspace. You can also grow your business by attending our networking meetings and meeting other people who also work in the Colorado Center at the gym or while grabbing lunch. The possibilities are endless!

As the community coordinator at I would like to invite you to come in for a tour or try out our space during one of our free coworking days. We offer a virtual tour if you’re unable to come in however just like with a car, you almost always want to check it out in person and once you’ve been to our space we know you will love it as much as both ourselves and our members do. We are always available via email or a quick phone call for any questions. We look forward to you being a part of our community!
