Hello Everyone, I am currently working on the planning phases of a expansion of our current coworking space, The Forge and have been hosting some small feedback events but I can’t seem to get more people interested in coming to see the potential of the space. I was wondering if there are any tips that someone with a bit more experience can offer me. Thanks in advance Carly ---

Just to make sure I understand the question, are you trying to get interest from your existing members, or from new prospective members (or both)? > **···** > > * * * > > **The #1 mistake in community building is doing it by yourself.** > > Better Coworkers: [http://indyhall.org](http://indyhall.org/) > > Weekly Coworking Tips: [http://coworkingweekly.com](http://coworkingweekly.com/) > > My Audiobook: [https://theindyhallway.com/ten](https://theindyhallway.com/ten) ---

Both, more so on the new members as we have already spoken with our current members. > **···** > > On Tue, Aug 21, 2018, 11:31 AM Alex Hillman, [dangerous...@gmail.com](mailto:dangerous...@gmail.com) wrote: > > > Just to make sure I understand the question, are you trying to get interest from your existing members, or from new prospective members (or both)? > > > > * * * > > > **The #1 mistake in community building is doing it by yourself.** > > > Better Coworkers: [http://indyhall.org](http://indyhall.org/) > > > Weekly Coworking Tips: [http://coworkingweekly.com](http://coworkingweekly.com/) > > > My Audiobook: [https://theindyhallway.com/ten](https://theindyhallway.com/ten) > > > > > > On Tue, Aug 21, 2018 at 11:28 AM Carly Seltzer [seltz.c...@gmail.com](mailto:seltz.c...@gmail.com) wrote: > > > > Hello Everyone, I am currently working on the planning phases of a expansion of our current coworking space, The Forge and have been hosting some small feedback events but I can’t seem to get more people interested in coming to see the potential of the space.

Got it, that makes sense. Can you post any examples of how you've been promoting your feedback sessions? It's be helpful to see what isn't working for context! > **···** > > On Aug 21, 2018, 1:55 PM -0400, Carly Seltzer \, wrote: > > > Both, more so on the new members as we have already spoken with our current members. > > > > \> On Tue, Aug 21, 2018, 11:31 AM Alex Hillman, \ wrote: > > \> \> Just to make sure I understand the question, are you trying to get interest from your existing members, or from new prospective members (or both)? > > \> \> > > \> \> ------------------ > > \> \> The #1 mistake in community building is doing it by yourself. > > \> \> Better Coworkers: [http://indyhall.org](http://indyhall.org) > > \> \> Weekly Coworking Tips: [http://coworkingweekly.com](http://coworkingweekly.com) > > \> \> My Audiobook: [The First 10 Members, the Indy Hall Way – The story of how we started a coworking community that has changed lives and improved our city.](https://theindyhallway.com/ten) > > \> \> > > \> \> > > \> \> \> On Tue, Aug 21, 2018 at 11:28 AM Carly Seltzer \ wrote: > > \> \> \> \> Hello Everyone, I am currently working on the planning phases of a expansion of our current coworking space, The Forge and have been hosting some small feedback events but I can't seem to get more people interested in coming to see the potential of the space.
