When you think of co-working spaces, what comes to mind? Is there a certain type of person who you imagine using a co-working space? Have you thought about exploring co-working but decided against it because you are not in the technology space? The reality is that co-working is a great fit for technology related jobs. However, tech jobs are no longer the only type of career that can benefit from the co-working design. Co-working spaces offer a number of valuable resources to modern employees and entrepreneurs in a variety of industries.

Reasons co-working is a great fit for technology related jobs

Co-working is a great option for people who work in technology related jobs. Many jobs in the tech industry can be done remotely 100% of the time. For example, most website designers can do everything they need to with a laptop and reliable internet connection. A co-working space provides remote professionals in the tech industry with a place to work when needed without the burden or responsibility of having a traditional office lease. This allows tech pros to work in a professional environment when they want without worry.

Jobs outside of technology that are a good fit for co-working spaces

There are a number of jobs outside of technology that are a good fit for co-working spaces. Many professionals outside of the tech industry still do the majority of their work online. Email and other types of electronic communication make it possible for professionals to get a lot done with a computer. For example, customer service is an industry that provides many opportunities to work remotely. Freelance creatives such as writers, graphic designer, and editors can also do the vast majority of their work remotely. A co-working space can provide people in a wide range of industries with a professional environment to get work done. 

Resources a co-working space offers all modern employees and entrepreneurs

Modern employees and entrepreneurs can benefit from the resources provided in a co-working space. The first resource is simply a professional environment in which to work. It is much different than working from home or in the coffee shop where distractions are abundant. A co-working space also includes resources such as high-speed internet, a break area, and access to private suites and conference rooms. If you work remotely some or all of the time, you can benefit from the resources that a co-working space provides.

Co-working spaces are a great option for people who work in technology but they are not reserved only for high tech gigs. Co-working spaces can work for a variety of people in a number of different industries.
