Is Co-Working Right for You?
Recently more business owners, consultants, remote workers and freelancers are exploring co-working as a professional environment that still offers flexibility, focus and the opportunity to be around other like-minded people.
Some of the professionals using co-working spaces visit once a month, others several days a week. At The Robinson, we see people using our co-working space for all sorts of reasons. Some need a break from the kitchen table. Some work remotely for national businesses. Some like the community feel and networking with other professionals. Others need a professional base for a day while visiting Blackpool.
So, how do you know if co-working is right for you?
Co-working might be right for you if you want to work more productively
Working from home has many advantages, however it also comes with distractions. Deliveries arrive, household jobs compete for attention, and it can sometimes be difficult to separate work from home.
A co-working space provides somewhere to focus without giving up the flexibility of remote working. It creates a clear distinction between home and work, helping many professionals feel more productive throughout the day.
If you like working around other professionals co-working could be right for you
Whether it's saying good morning over a coffee, chatting through ideas or simply having other professionals working nearby, co-working offers the best of both.
At The Robinson, we've already seen people enjoy the flexibility of independent working, having chats in the kitchen over coffee, while feeling part of a business community.
Co-working might be right for you if you’re a remote worker
Many organisations now have teams working remotely. While that offers greater flexibility, home isn't always the ideal environment for every working day.
People meeting clients or simply looking for somewhere that allows full focus, co-working provides all the benefits of a professional workspace without the commitment of a permanent office.
It might be right for you if you’re visiting Blackpool for the day
For professionals travelling into Blackpool for meetings, events or appointments, working from a busy café isn't always ideal.
The Robinson offers a comfortable workspace in Blackpool town centre, just a short walk from Blackpool North train station, with nearby parking, excellent public transport links and secure bike storage.
With superfast broadband, a quiet working environment and a growing business community, it's an ideal place to work between meetings or spend a productive day.
If flexibility matters co-working might be right for you
Not everyone needs office space every day, which is why our co-working memberships are designed around how people actually work.
Choose from half-day passes, day passes, weekly access, memberships for 4 or 8 days a month, or unlimited monthly memberships. Selected memberships also include printing and meeting room credits, providing even greater value as businesses grow.
