I've uploaded my business plan to the group. You can find it here.
http://groups.google.com/group/coworking/web/CC_BizPlan_public.pdf

I hope you find it useful. I want to thank Citizen Space, Indy Hall,
Cube Space, and all the Coworking group members. With out your help I
would never have made it this far.

Small update: I have a space and am outfitting with furniture etc now.
I've pre-sold a bunch of desks and offices. Hope to be open October
1.

Cheers!

Hey Brian
I love this business plan....
Is this what you actually took to the banks or investors?

Hey Brian. this is great!  You should submit it at the E.Factor as well.  It is a great place for Entrepreneurs and Investors to connect.  In addition we have Co-Working space avail in the US and UK and expanding throughout. 

Good luck!

Thank you.

Yes. This what I showed to my investors. I am very lucky. I worked
with my local town loan fund. The Town of Carrboro has a wonderful
economic development vision involving supporting the creative economy.

Not sure if anyone is still checking this thread but we made a business plan section in the coworking wiki: http://wiki.coworking.com/w/page/16583286/Business%20Plans

Feel free to edit the page (you can ask for writing permission if you dont have a log in yet) and add your coworking space business plan. Sharing is caring!

Cheers,

Mayel -
My guess is Brian's plan was removed due to age, and the fact that his coworking space closed.  Read about it here: http://carrborocoworking.com/
 
I am also working to develop a corworking space, and currently working on a business plan. I did a one page version to direct and focus my work, and am now working on the detailed plan part (templates are everywhere).
 
In my research of the coworking places that have succeeded and failed, knowing your demographics / where they live, what they are like etc and really understanding and catering to that group, and having a location that caters to that market and is available to them are crucial.
 
Good luck!!

Hi Brian...

Im trying to develop a coworking in Southamerica, and it would be very helpful if we can access to your business plan as a model to replicate.

The problem is that the link to the business plan is broken.

I would appreciate if you can send it to me, somehow.

Thank you.

Mayel

Hi Neil, 

Check here for a couple of Business Plans and some resources you can use. Also it'd be great if you share your business plan with the rest of the community once you're done. 

Cheers,

Brian - I tried to upload your Coworking Biz Plan and get this error message -  Sorry, you're trying to access a feature that is no longer supported. Can you send me a copy directly? I'm working on my own plan for Propeller Center in Kansas City.
Thanks - neil.s...@propellercenter.com
