Consider renting coworking space in Chicago

Coworking spaces are sweeping the nation as remote workers realize they want office spaces but don't want to convert a bedroom into one. Others are finding that they can get the benefits of an office without the overhead by outsourcing that need to a coworking space in downtown Chicago. A coworking space rental is as large or as small as your business needs it to be. You can rent a single desk for a single day, a desk that's yours on a monthly basis, an entire private office for one event or daily rentals, and more. Larger coworking venues also offer meeting rooms and auditoriums for major events. They are scattered throughout the city of Chicago as well so you can choose the coworking space that best meets your needs. Whether you want one situated in a downtown skyscraper or prefer working in a repurposed warehouse, coworking spaces in Chicago are plentiful and affordable.

Mox.E is quite flexible and offers several tiers of membership, including a work from home option that grants you just a few days per month for remote workers that need to shake things up on occasion.

Consider a coworking space in Chicago day pass

Do you like the idea of working in a tech-equipped coworking space in Chicago but aren't ready to commit just yet? Try visiting one with a day pass. Most coworking spaces offer hot desk spaces, which are spots not reserved for anyone in particular. Hot desks give you the benefits of a traditional office desk, with seating, cabinet space, and wifi. Not all coworking spaces provide you with a hot desk, however. You might be sitting at a shared desk with a few other remote workers or even a couch. But a day pass still provides you with the main benefits of working at a coworking space as a trial run. Coffee, tea, microwaves, and bathrooms are all open to you as well. A day pass lets you take in the vibe, see how efficient the staff are at maintaining a quiet operation, and check out what else is available. Be sure to ask for a tour; coworking spaces always have conference rooms, offices, and other venues to rent that may come in handy in the future.
