Angel Kwiatkowski shares that 10 years ago, a cold email asking her to help start a coworking space in Ulaanbaatar started and adventure that included Craig Baute flying over there and resulted in Mongolia getting its very first coworking space.

When folks ask just how helpful Coworking Leaders are, point them at this post.

Denver Coworks is going to tour a long-running coworking space, now up to 3+ locations, and have an honest discussion about what it’s like to grow a coworking operation, what are some failures, and how it changes the owner’s relationship to the community and space.

​All are welcome because we will also gossip about local news and happenings. If you run a space, own a space, own a building and thinking about coworking, or just curious about entering in the industry then join us.

Craig Baute from DenSwap shares a fascinating look 3 years of tour conversion data from a coworking space in Chicago.

41% who converted made the decision to do so in the first business week. 26% did so on the first day. Another 16% joined within 2 weeks of the tour.

But… 11% of those who joined only did so a month later, 9% 2-3 months later and 9% more over 3 months later. If you’re assuming you lost anyone who doesn’t join within 30 days, you’re leaving 29% of conversions on the table.

Craig Baute joins Hector Kolonas on the TWIC Podcast to discuss Creative Density‘s big merger news and to answer the age old question of "Should we… close, raise, contract, grow, buy, sell or merge?
