Dayspaces connects underused commercial spaces with remote professionals to create coworking everywhere.
In the fall of 2018, our founder Sydney Berry Ling leisurely wandered into a commercial space for sale in downtown Knoxville. The listing price was well beyond what she could afford, but she had a vision for coworking and loved the space. So, why not have a look? After an unexpected conversation with the owner, she could sense more was happening. That serendipitous moment led to the launch of a coworking space. And planted the seeds for Dayspaces.
So, what kinds of spaces make perfect Dayspaces?
Who are we looking for?
Providers
Maybe you own a restaurant that is open each evening, yet brimming with tables and chairs that sit empty throughout the day. Or you run an event space that sees very little traffic through the week, but hosts events every single weekend. Simply put, you have some open commercial space that could fit 5 to 20 digital nomads M-F between 9am-4pm (give or take). Dayspaces is your opportunity to make a little extra cash AND provide vital space for remote professionals to get out of their PJs and connect with like-minded doers either close to home or in a part of town that inspires and energizes them.
Sound like you? We’d love for you to participate in our Beta (US only) happening now.
Members
You are a freelance creative, a solopreneur, or the rare creature known as the ‘remote worker.’ While you enjoy the freedom to work from home, sometimes it feels isolating and difficult to separate home and work. You find yourself easily distracted by the endless list of todos around every corner. You would love to have a spot to go to through the week without the stress of feeling like you’re overstaying your welcome at the local coffee shop (and without spending 12 bucks on lattes). You feel energized when you’re around like-minded professionals and have been looking for the right community that actually gets you.
Look no further. You are ‘our people’ and we can’t wait to meet you. Our goal is to make coworking not only affordable, but WONDERFUL. Ready to make a move?
Managers
You are a remote professional with an innate gift of hospitality. You exude positivity without even trying. You are consistent and reliable. While you enjoy your flexibility, you also thrive on a schedule. And as soon as you heard about Dayspaces, you immediately thought, “Where has this been all my life?”
Our Providers need you. Our Members need you. We need you. If we determine a good fit, you will receive free membership to your preferred Dayspace in exchange for your commitment to making that space’s community thrive. We think it’s a pretty sweet deal, but you already knew that.
