Remote and hybrid work making it harder to justify full office for small business
There’s more choice than ever for office space, but it can still be a challenge for smaller companies to find the right fit.
“You don’t need an office full time, board rooms, all that overhead, so the idea really clicked and felt like a great approach,” said Chalmers. It was then that he and Chalmers decided to team up on their search. Together, they found a spot for their combined staff of around 22 people that had 15-foot ceilings, big wooden beams and polished floors that left lots of flexibility to make it their own.
“Ian and I had already been comfortable sharing, you know, the war stories of being entrepreneurs and growing the business and the good and the bad of all that.” They also went through the formality of non-disclosure agreements, and have to make sure to wipe down whiteboards of anything sensitive, though it’s still more private than a frequently shared space such as a WeWork.
The pair are a year and a half into a five-year lease, so they went in with a long-term commitment, and so far, it’s going well, said Chalmers.
