Flex That Worx
Welcome to Flex That Worx, a podcast for anyone building, managing or growing a flexible workspace without making things more complicated than they need to be.
If you're running a single coworking space, juggling multiple locations, or overseeing a growing network of spaces across towns or cities, this is your space. It’s for the operators, managers, decision-makers, the people doing the work to make these places run.
Each week, we’ll share focused, no-fluff episodes with practical insights on how to run a better workspace. We’re talking about smoother operations, happier members, stronger systems, and sustainable growth. Think of it as your shortcut to learning what actually works.
At Baseworx, we work from coworking spaces ourselves. We see the wins, the mess, and everything in between. This podcast is a way for us to share what we’re learning, chatting with the people doing good work in this industry and helping you simplify how you scale.
Episodes are short, so you can fit them into your week easily. You’ll hear from workspace operators, industry experts, and our team. No jargon, no filler. Just useful ideas you can actually apply.

Pricing Your Space Without Losing the Trust You've Built | Flex Rewind | S2 EP19
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Pricing your space sits in a category of its own.
The numbers come together quickly enough. The harder part is sitting with what a change might mean for the members who've stayed with you, who've shaped the community in your space and who you'd rather not lose. That weight is real and it's part of what makes you the kind of operator your members are happy to keep coming back to.
In this Flex Rewind, Graham and Anne-Marie come back to the topic of pricing. They cover why standardised pricing protects the trust at the heart of your community, where private rates genuinely belong for at-scale clients, why it's okay to charge fairly for what your space provides and how clear bundles can take the friction out of the day-to-day for both you and your members.
Key takeaways for coworking & flexible workspace operators:
- Standardised, public pricing protects the trust your members place in you and the conversations they have with each other
- Private rates make sense for clients taking a meaningful slice of your desks
- Passing rising costs through with care is part of looking after the business that holds your community
- Some members stepping back when rates shift is part of running a healthy business, not a sign you've fallen short on the care you've shown
- Clear bundles ring-fence fair usage and avoid the awkward meeting room conversation before it lands
- Flexibility is a kindness, and letting members pick what fits how they actually work is part of why they stay
