A feature I'd pay for? Discounts at co-working facilities. (They're expensive, and always hard to justify.) Maybe the co-working sites would give you those special discounts in exchange for more visibility in your app.
Radical idea: I read about an app that let people rent out their backyard swimming pools by the hour. Is there a market for letting people co-work on your back porch or with you in your living room, etc? (Kind of like an AirBNB for co-working. People would make profiles of the space they're offering, and set their price...)
Or you could try auctioning them off -- you'd probably have to do that at the start of the business day, and it would obviously work better in densely-populated areas.
Maybe I'm an outlier, but the only thing I'm really interested in is whether I can or can't co-work somewhere. To get me excited about amenities, it has to be really luxurious. (I heard about hotels that were letting people co-work in their lobbies or unused suites. That kind of thing...) If you want people to subscribe to a service, it'd have to be finding high-end "luxury" co-working spaces, maybe ones not generally available to others? [Maybe you'd need to find unique co-working locations -- a historic church, a university common room -- that aren't more widely known?]
- rafies 3y agoI love these! yeah, my main thing right now is piecing it all together into a valuable service I can offer, and more importantly, understanding where people's heads are at and what they wish would exist within the field. very grateful for the ideas.
- MilnerRoute 3y agoOne more idea. You know how big tech companies will host Meetups, just for the exposure and in hopes it'll help build up goodwill in the community and aid their recruiting later? Maybe you could get local tech companies to set aside a common area for co-workers -- in exchange for the same benefits? (Building up goodwill/aiding with recruiting...) > very grateful for the ideas. If you're ever about to IPO for a billion dollars... track me down! :)
