Alternative Office Solutions for Remote Workers
Many companies have returned to work and as a remote employee, you’re considering doing the same. The problem is, your business doesn’t have an office location nearby or even at all, but you’d still like somewhere to go during the workday other than your home office.
Enter coworking. Coworking | co·work·ing
being, relating to, or working in a building where multiple tenants (such as entrepreneurs, start-ups, or nonprofits) rent working space (such as desks or offices) and have the use of communal facilities
In other words – a coworking company offers workspaces of all kinds, along with luxurious amenities^, in a flexible environment that members can lease for as long or as short as they’d like.
If you’re a remote employee and are looking for an alternative place to work one or two days a week or even just a few times a month, a coworking space could be a great option for you. Coworking spaces offer different types of memberships depending on the needs of your business. In this case a communal membership or a day pass might be your sweet spot.
What does a communal membership entail? A communal membership allows a member to work in any common area, as well as enjoy many of the all-inclusive amenities CommonGrounds Workplace offers. A member has access to the building during working hours, can reserve conference rooms for private meetings, connect with other coworking members, and enjoy perks such as complimentary coffee and beverages, phonebooths, and the use of printing stations.
The great thing about a communal membership is that you can come and go as you please and create your own schedule. If you plan to be in the office once a week or more than a few times a month, logistically, a communal membership is the way to go over a day pass.
What does a day pass include? With a day pass* you are given access to our long list of amenities^, as well as your own workspace in our common areas. Whether you choose to work from a hot desk, a private phone booth, or even one of our comfortable couches – you can work the way you want for the entire day. CommonGrounds Workplace is proud to offer day passes at an affordable rate and work with you to meet the needs your business requires.
The main difference on deciding between the two is dependent on how much time you’re planning on spending in the office. As previously stated, if you want to pop in just once in a while, then a day pass might be all you need. If you are planning on being in the office at least once a week or maybe a few times a month, a communal membership might make more sense financially.
More than likely if you take the route of a communal membership, you will use it more often than you’d expect. Why wouldn’t you? An amazing office that was designed to induce productivity and enjoyment is right there waiting for you!
*Day passes are available at select CommonGrounds locations and are eligible for use during building hours only. Amenities may differ depending on each CommonGrounds location and are subject to availability.
