I am loving the sharing.…

Ok so I accidentally got involved in a tech start up and found my self sharing rather than selling.

I have always been crap at selling, mainly because somewhere in there you only really want to meet people who are going to buy your product or service.

Me? I love people, I love bringing people together at events and I love racing through streets in Soho talking very fast on my phone trying to pull everything off with no time, no budget and necking a double espresso from Flat White.

I am stressed to the eyeballs, loving every minute and beyond grateful for the people around me.

One little sanctuary I have found is KindredHQ co-working. I have always detested "members clubs" (every time a new one opens all the usual suspects  slide in there at the beginning) KindredHQ is a members club on the move and means you can socialise and work at the same time.

I am solving more problems hanging with these people twice a week than running round Soho like a maniac.

One of the best sessions is the monthly Mozilla group, the huge space means you can spread out either on a bean bag or bench, you can probably have a snooze too :-)

I am terrified to write this post in case @lesanto reads it and calls me up. It is not really that he is scary - I bet he is a teddy bear with a cup of hot chocolate really. It is that I know I could do better. When you get a room full of London Bloggers together there is a cross section of people who are smart people. They may work in education, business or have a real job like like being a parent. There is a vibe I find infectious and love hearing about people's blogs, everyone says "oh I just

Should You Close or Keep Marketing Your Coworking Space Over the Holidays?

The Case for Taking a Holiday Break For coworking space operators in London, December is often a month of tough decisions. With the festive season in full swing, many wonder: “Should we shut down and take a break or keep pushing our marketing and communications to stay visible?” While closing and switching off for the holidays is tempting, there’s a compelling case for staying active — especially in a city where self-employed workers and freelancers rarely switch off entirely. Here’s a break
