Overall, working at a Shared office space can be a good idea if you are looking for a cost-effective and flexible office space, and if the benefits outweigh the cons. It's important to consider your specific needs and preferences, and to research different coworking space options before making a decision.

But for decision-makers, a key question remains: Is there a positive return on investment (ROI) for businesses that choose coworking? The answer is a resounding yes. Coworking offers a multitude of benefits that translate into tangible financial gains and a happier, more productive workforce.

A good rule of thumb is to have at least enough offices to cover all of the space's fixed expenses. The additional revenue of shared desks, dedicated desk, conference rooms, and virtual mail will cover your additional expenses and profit. On average, coworking spaces bring in $4 per square foot of profit.

Cost Efficient While coworking spaces' headline cost may seem similar to traditional leases, they often include additional amenities like utilities, high-speed internet, meeting rooms, front desk reception and sometimes even free coffee and snacks. All these perks can add up to significant savings.
