Choosing the right membership for your business needs.
Choosing the right coworking membership is a critical decision for any business, whether you are a freelancer, a startup or an established company. The environment you work in can play a significant role in your productivity. At Riva Offices, we recognise the diverse needs of businesses, which is why we offer a variety of workspaces and memberships. Let’s explore the different memberships available at Riva Offices and help you determine which one is the best fit for your business.
Understanding the coworking model
If you are considering a coworking space, it is essential to understand the coworking model. Coworking spaces offer inclusive pricing, covering overheads for your workspace such as rent, wifi and electricity. When evaluating coworking spaces, it’s also important to consider the amenities they offer.
At Riva Offices, we go beyond just providing a desk, some of our amenities and services include:
Quiet Rooms: Dedicated and private spaces for work without distractions.
Meeting Rooms: Professional spaces to facilitate meetings with everything you need including video conferencing technology.
Podcast Studio: A creative space for recording podcasts with high-quality audio and video.
Breakout Spaces: Relaxing areas for informal meetings or taking a break.
Events: Monthly networking events and workshops to help you connect with other professionals and grow your business.
These amenities ensure that you have everything you need to work efficiently and comfortably, all in one place!
Private Office
Different memberships
Private Offices
Private Offices give members access to security and privacy of their own office while still being a part of the coworking community. Suitable for teams of 2 to 10, and fully equipped with desks and chairs, enjoy the advantage of a secluded space whilst being connected to the broader community. Offices are perfect for teams that require privacy and ability to create a personalised work environment. Some of the benefits include:
Customisable space: Tailor the office layout and decor to match your brand and preferences.
Private environment: Work without interruptions in a secure and quiet space.
Team accommodation: Private offices can be scaled to accommodate your team size, ensuring everyone has the space they need to work efficiently.
Private Offices are ideal for teams or businesses that need a confidential and secure environment. If you require a space that can be customised to your specific needs and want to ensure privacy for your team, a private office is the best choice.
Dedicated Desks
A Dedicated Desk membership offers you an assigned desk in a shared coworking area. This option is ideal for those who want a stable working environment with their own desk. Some of the benefits include:
Guaranteed workspace: Always have a specific desk reserved just for you where you can leave your belongings.
Stable environment: Enjoy a consistent working environment.
Networking Opportunities: Work in a shared environment with a diverse group of professionals.
Dedicated Desks are well suited for freelancers, solo entrepreneurs or small teams who need a consistent workspace but do not require a private office. If you prefer having a specific place to return to every day without the need of a fully private space, a Dedicated Desk is the choice for you.
Dedicated Desk
Hot Desks
Hot Desks are the most flexible type of membership. Members do not have a designated desk or workspace; instead, they can choose any available desk each time they visit the coworking space. Some of the benefits include:
Flexibility: Enjoy the flexibility to work in a professional environment without the need to commit to a specific spot.
Productivity: Being surrounded by other professionals in a workspace is motivating and increases productivity.
Hot Desks are perfect for those who travel a lot who need a flexible workspace. They are ideal for freelancers, remote workers or business travellers who do not need a permanent desk.
How to choose the right membership
Selecting the right membership involves careful consideration of your needs and budget. Consider the following:
Consider your budget: Evaluate how much you are willing to spend on a workspace. While cost is an important consideration, it is also important to consider the value you’re getting for your money.
Team size: Consider the number of people you need to accommodate and whether you expect your team to grow.
Assess your business needs: Determine whether you need privacy, consistency or flexibility. Do you require quiet, individual workspaces, or do you thrive in collaborative environments?
Understanding these aspects will help you narrow down your options and focus on spaces that cater to your specific requirements.
Summary
Coworking memberships provide a flexible solution for professionals and businesses in need of a workspace. They offer a range of options to suit different needs and preferences, from hot desk plans for occasional use, to dedicated desk and private office plans for those requiring a consistent workspace.
Selecting the appropriate membership requires careful consideration and evaluation of your workspace requirements, budget, and the amenities and services offered by the coworking space. By understanding the different memberships and their benefits, you can make an informed decision that best aligns with your work and business goals.
