How Headquarters Helps Growing Companies Be More Successful
Developing businesses have to overcome many obstacles to reach their potential. Affordability, flexibility, and productivity are key challenges in the success of growing companies. Headquarters’ coworking space has been curated to address those challenges, meaning you can free up more resources to put more into building your business instead of just maintaining it.
Affordable Rent
The cost of a space with a traditional office doesn’t end with rent. Many things that you would take for granted have additional costs that add up quickly. Parking, conference rooms, and even internet can come with fees. Headquarters, like many other coworking spaces, takes a different approach to leasing office space. What we do differently is offer more with your rent, like free parking, access to five conference rooms, and fiber optic internet. Along with those amenities, we offer 24/7 building access, a fully stocked kitchen, and an on-site coffee shop. We don’t shift that cost into your rent like some office spaces. We make the most of business discounts and one time construction costs so we don’t need to charge you for these amenities. Including these in your lease with no extra fees makes it easier for you to budget for your space without unexpected costs. Stabilizing what you can expect to pay reduces the uncertainty that can surround leasing a space.
Flexible Space
The modern business landscape has many avenues for a business to grow. Taking advantage of the right opportunities can lead to a company booming overnight. Rapid growth requires resources to sustain, like new employees and infrastructure. Traditional offices seem to punish this success by charging fees for changing or expanding your space. Our flexible leasing options don’t penalize you for making those necessary changes. Customizability and growth drove the design of our spaces from the start. We wanted to give you more options to create a home for your business that fits your vision.
Networking Opportunities
Networking with other businesses opens doors to unexpected opportunities. That’s why we designed Headquarters with 47% of the building dedicated to common space. Encouraging networking to be the norm between both businesses and tenants has led to unique partnerships, which expedite growth for both parties. To make the most of this, we targeted established businesses who could use their experience to bolster newer businesses.
Our established clientele have chosen coworking spaces to make the most of their potential. The fluidity and opportunities provided by coworking allows them to acquire expert employees. Traditional office structures can alienate experts who rely on autonomy to work their best. Having businesses who know the benefits of coworking gives our new tenants a springboard to grow from. Experience with the communal nature of coworking spaces helps new businesses warm up to networking with their neighbors
Boosting Productivity
This focus on being selective isn’t just to maintain a vibe. Businesses that work together work better. Research from the ADP Research Institute shows that quality conversations with people improves connectedness within your company; whether those conversations are with coworkers or people outside your company. Tenants with a passion for their work bring more than just small talk to their chats. These chats remind us all that we’re all working on our passions. Feeling like a part of something bigger helps motivate everyone to work their best.
Structuring Headquarters focused on providing networking spaces like lounge areas, communal eating spaces, and a courtyard garden. Designing our building this way also promotes productivity through the environment. A study from George Mason University found that the right layout for an office space boosts productivity. Communal areas where employees were in close proximity had the highest increase in job satisfaction and productivity. Natural light and greenery within the office environment helps reduce stress. Making our courtyard into a rest area with a garden doubles up on the benefits.
