All great suggestions! In addition, we post on all of the aggregators (mostly to improve SEO), be sure our SEO is good because a lot of people will google [your town] coworking. You should be on the first page. And Craigslist. We probably get 1/3 to 1/2 of our members through Craigslist. (We train carefully on this.) And have shills over the first month or so! Get your friends to work there free to start so the place has a vibe initially.

Out of curiosity, what section of Craigslist do you post on? How often? Do you ever post in Craigslist pages from locales that are not your own but are nearby? Thanks for sharing! ---

Yes, we post in areas that aren’t exactly here, but are close. Not sure if all of Craigslist is the same, but for us we post in Housing: office/commercial and events. Community sometimes gets rejected. Depending on your area, you might need to post 1x, 2x or 3x/day.
