Kids Out - New Business In

What To Do When The Kids Leave For School

As a parent, it is natural to put your child’s needs ahead of yours.  The first phase of parenting starts at childbirth, and takes you up till the time your child leaves for kindergarten.  For these 5 years, your child has been an influence in everything you do. How do you fill the void?

You’re not ready to go back to work because you really only have a couple hours in the day.  This might be a good time to go back to work part time or to start that business you have been thinking about over the years.

Start your own business

Studies show that, when starting your business, the immediate reaction is to work from home. Although this is most popular and cost effective way to get started, it has been proven that the distractions in the home can inhibit your focus and productivity.  The dirty dishes, laundry and of course the TV will impede your concentration.

It has been noted that coworking spaces actually provide the best place to focus and motivate you to work. Coworking spaces, such as Colony Workplaces, provide a cost effective solution, surrounding you by likeminded business professionals, high speed internet and all the free coffee you need. The best part is that you are in an environment that removes you from a kiddy space and puts you into a professional business environment.  This will not only improve your mental focus, but also change your disposition with some “adult time.”

Key takeaway: coworking = adult time. 

 At Colony Workplaces, we find that one of the biggest concerns is the cost and signing a long-term commitment of office space.  Our coworking plans start as low as $99 and only have a month-to-month commitment. Because we also understand that there is a fear that coworking is not right for everyone, we offer a free trial period with no commitment.   It is important to us that all of our members to be comfortable.  Mention this article and get a free week in our coworking space.
