Hello people, so we are starting to host a lot of different events that come from our community. Some are proposed from people inside our coworking space but most of them proposed by people outside the CW.
We are hosting events like illustration night, online business meet up and the last one that has come up is Enterpreneur Poker night. (Take a look at the rules are really cool http://www.strongbeard.se/entrepreneur-poker/ )
But My question is, how do you owners of a space charge for this? Do you rent the space? Charge an entrance? Only sell the bears?
Personally I have a problem dealing with charging. This is something I need to change but as i make strong bonds with everyone in the CW is hard for me to charge them… I know i have to change this. But any advice on dealing with this is will appreciate it. =)

Yes, one of the big problemas is that this city is divided in two. The north and the center. In the center there are a lot of turists and the local people from the north that can pay for the space don´t like to come down. So I hade to choices
a) move of space but this was a lot of money or
b) focus on the people that live around the space and start focusing on nomads and turists and expats that like to come to mérida for a month or two. This is were we are now.
The events are always full of local people as they only have to come for one day not every day. Most of the people that come to NODO are expats that like coworking, have heard of it or have tried it. Or even if they don´t know about the concept they are very interested but they live close to the space.
This has been a bit of a problem as we have to change all the communication to another sector but without forgeting the locals. For me, my goal is to have a mix of cultures in the space.

Do you know why the people who want to use your space haven’t joined your community yet?

The #1 mistake in community building is doing it by yourself.
