If you haven’t worked at a co-working space before, you may be wondering what you need to bring with you on your first day. At Co.Unity, we have just about everything and anything you may need. We’ve got fast, reliable WiFi that’s always on – even during loadshedding. We have front desk services and call answering, Zoom Rooms, a boardroom, an on-site coffee shop, virtual office services for members, and flexible pay-for-use options.
With that in mind, you won’t need to worry about packing too much to get to work. However, there are a couple of things that you should bring along when going to a co-working space.
What to Bring to Your Co-Working Space
Here’s what to take with you when working in a shared workspace:
Laptop and charger
As most spaces are fitted with everything you need, including uncapped WiFi, the only device you will need is your laptop and charger. It’s good to take a charger with you if you plan to be working for longer hours. If you have any other adapters or devices you typically use during work, you can bring those along, too.
Business cards
Co-working environments are ideal for networking. You will meet many new people when working in this type of space. There are plenty of opportunities to forge connections, which means that it is always a good idea to bring some business cards. These will make it much easier than swapping numbers on phones. Business cards also make a solid impression on potential clients or collaborators.
Your headphones
Finally, another useful thing to consider is your headphones. Although these spaces are far quieter than coffee shops, there are times you want to tune everything out and get to work. These are also useful if you’re planning any calls in our Zoom Room. And, of course, if you need to play your favourite music to boost your productivity levels as you work, headphones are a must-have.
Other than these things, the only thing you will need is a positive mindset. Read our guide on what to expect when working in a shared space to find out more.
