From understanding her numbers to tweaking her team structure to building out a profitable mail program, Kim brings equal parts heart and hustle to the table. In this episode, Kim walks us through her journey with virtual mail—from opening with it in place, to running the numbers year after year to make sure it still makes sense (spoiler: it does).

Christine Tosi didn't just open a coworking space—she invented one out of necessity. What started as a creative way to use extra space in a building she and her husband David bought for their first business has grown into a full-on coworking success story in Tucson, Arizona. Now, they're gearing up to open a second location—this time under a management agreement—with a pipeline full of mail clients, a waitlist for dedicated desks, and a family-run team that includes their college-aged daughter (and some pretty savvy Canva support from their son). In this episode, Christine shares how she turned her virtual mailbox business into a revenue stream that's bringing in up to $195/month per customer—with no paid marketing. Plus, how a landlord partnership that was almost too good to be true opened the door (literally) to their second location. What we cover: Why Christine and David traded snow shovels in Wisconsin for solar glare in Tucson How a side business turned into a full-time coworking brand The landing page tweaks that took their virtual mail business from 0 to 50+ customers How they got 10 members at $195/month… and hardly ever see them

Craig Baute is a familiar name in the coworking world—and he's got a big update. After 13 years of running Creative Density, he made the leap and merged his coworking brand with Thrive, another local Denver operator. In this super candid chat, Craig dishes on what led him to walk away from day-to-day operations, what the structure looks like now, and why he's finally embracing weekly meetings. Whether you've hit the scale ceiling or you're just wondering what it looks like to not be the boss anymore, this episode is a must-listen. What we get into: Life with two kids, four coworking locations, and one burnt-out founder Why losing a trusted team member forced Craig to rethink everything The call that changed it all: how a casual “Let's do lunch” turned into a merger The power of middle management (yes, it's a thing in coworking now) Thrive's operating structure and how Craig fits in post-merger The mental shift from “owner” to “team member” — and how that changes everything Why most spaces stall at 2–3 locations and how combining forces helps you scale 68 fake plants, a $6,500 coffee machine, and why Switchyards has everyone's attention Thinking about selling? Merging? Scaling beyond your comfort zone? This episode might be the nudge (or reality check) you need. Bonus: Yes, Craig and Jamie share a birthday. Yes, that makes this episode extra fun.

If you're still asking people to "fill out a form" to book a meeting room—this episode is for you. I'm joined by Miro Miroslavov, CEO and co-founder of OfficeRnD, to talk about why e-commerce is no longer optional for coworking spaces, and how their new Growth Hub is making it easier than ever to meet customer expectations—and convert website visitors into paying members. We cover how consumer expectations have shifted, why friction kills revenue, and how the most successful operators are rethinking their websites and booking flows for today's demand. In this episode, we cover: Why meeting room bookings, day passes, and even small offices need to be available for instant online purchase. The two user personas your coworking website must serve—and how to optimize for both. Why booking friction is leaving money on the table, and how to reduce it. How OfficeRnD's Growth Hub helps operators capture and convert demand in a competitive market. What's changing in demand gen as users move from Google to AI-powered search—and how to stay visible. Miro also shares how operators are already using the Growth Hub to boost bookings and better measure ROI, and what features (like dynamic pricing and deeper CRM integration) are coming next. If your goals include better marketing performance, more bookings, and a more profitable bottom line—you don't want to miss this conversation.

Whether you're in a small market or managing multiple locations, this episode will help you see your website, your phone booths, and your meeting rooms in a whole new light. We cover: Why conversion rate optimization on your website is the fastest path to more revenue—and what's getting in the way Real math on what a 5% improvement in booking conversions can do for your bottom line How operators are using new tools like Elumo and Growth Hub to monetize amenities and eliminate friction Why the traditional “tours-first” mindset doesn't match today's on-demand buyer behavior Why your meeting rooms (and phone booths) should be treated like products with real dollar value—and how to make that happen with minimal effort Everything Coworking Featured Resources: Masterclass: 3 Behind-the-Scenes Secrets to Opening a Coworking Space Coworking Startup School Community Manager University Follow Us on YouTube

Coworking spaces often promise community—but what does it really take to build one that's engaged, vibrant, and truly member-driven? Liz Barney, Director of Marketing & Community at Cahoots in Ann Arbor, Michigan, joins us to share how her journey from remote worker to coworking leader led to a game-changing experiment: a member-led approach to building community and social events. In this episode, we dive into: How Cahoots launched its “Community Committee” and empowered members to take ownership of events and initiatives. Why structured, member-led engagement can be more effective than traditional coworking social events. Lessons learned from different types of community-building experiments (what worked and what didn't!). The surprising ways introverts and extroverts engage in coworking spaces—and why a variety of offerings matters. How this approach fosters deeper connections, improves retention, and makes coworking spaces truly feel like home. This episode is packed with practical takeaways for coworking operators who want to level up their community strategy—without putting everything on their community team.
