Exciting about the Marshall project, should we meet with them sometime?

Next step re Base Camp is to wait and get details from them about what the deal would be, then we might want to all go look at the space, talk more about possibilities. Re mgt of space, it's mostly dealing with inquiries (co-working and meetings), along with a little cleaning.

Yes, they are definitely interested in meeting. If we want it to happen before the holidays, this coming week is my best bet. I'm out of town for work the week of December 11 and I have a friend from Mexico arriving for a week on the 15th. How does sometime Wednesday or Friday afternoon sound? If you all wanted to see the space in Marshall, we could meet up there; otherwise, anywhere in AVL.

My friends Ty Hallock and Duncan Werk are involved there. You can reach him at [email protected] or (828) 281-1085. They're both right-minded individuals and accomplished entrepreneurs.

Here is the latest from Rachel at Base Camp:

It turns out that we had some folks come in a couple of days ago that were willing to sign a lease and because we are looking to get the space filled asap we gave them the go ahead to sign up and get situated. We would of course love to talk about other options for you all to be involved! Let me know if you are still interested without the office downstairs and I would love to answer your questions and talk about how we could make that agreement work.

To answer your questions above minus the downstairs plan:
For the co-working space, what is or has been the breakdown between dedicated desks, PT flex desks and FT flex desks?
- We have 1 dedicated desk member at the moment, 2 full time flex members, and 10 part time flex members.
What is the current capacity of the big room in terms of co-workers and the way it is set up now? May need to consider some different scenarios of the mix between dedicated and flex.
- I would say that right now we have room now to fit up to 15 people at a time comfortably in the big room. There are 7 of the wood desks on the wall which dedicated desk members typically prefer. I imagine we could definitely make space to double that number by moving the couches etc.
Any idea of what meeting space usage is, both for the 2nd floor conference room and the main room?
- I will share the meeting room calendar with you so that you can see the current availability and sign ups. Having Tech Talent South in the meeting room on weekday mornings definitely hinders the flexibility of people signing up but it hasn't been an issue thus far. The upstairs meeting space is exclusively Greenstone now so that is our only communal meeting area besides the big room.
Would managing co-working include managing meeting schedule, and if so, do we need to have a revenue sharing model on meeting space rental as well?
- Yes since the meeting room is under the Base Camp umbrella at the moment all of the meeting room profits could be split 50/50 especially since so many people are looking for meeting space and some of the visitors you would be bringing in would most likely be interested!
What are the cleaning responsibilities? Just the big room? Also the space with coffee, fridge, etc? The 2nd floor meeting room? Anything else?
- The cleaning responsibilities would include the big room, meeting room. bathrooms, and coffee/fridge area. I can modify and send you my cleaning checklist if that is helpful?

Sorry to change plans last minute but I still think that the big room space could be a good fit for most of your needs and this would provide you all with a more affordable option. Taking in the adjustments without the downstairs space we are thinking that base line rent would be $1800/mo. This is our current co-working membership base. As you grow the space, rent out conference and meeting space, and add additional coworkers, that revenue would be split 50/50. Let me know what you think! I loved your ideas concerning the space and feel that we could work out an agreement that could be mutually beneficial if you are still interested.
