Industrious lets you use a fully-furnished modern office — and only pay on the days you need it

It's an option virtually every small business and freelancing professional will eventually consider — do I need to rent office space? Whether it's the result of a growing staff, growing responsibilities, or simply maturing as a company, there's usually a moment for any professional organization when getting a centralized office starts to make a lot of sense.

Yet, despite the excitement of expansion, renting office space comes with some big headaches too, especially in the age of COVID. Where to locate your office is an even bigger question mark than ever before.

The costs of renting an entire office space

And then there's the biggest concern — the cost. The average cost for U.S. office space is between $8 and $23 per square foot. That cost starts to skyrocket in major urban centers like San Francisco and New York, where your average price per employee could work out to just under $15,000 per year. And that doesn't even account for the added expenditures like supplies, furniture, equipment, utilities, and more that can immediately become one of your company's biggest monthly expenses.

If you decide you need office space, but you still have questions about how much office you really need, you can start scaling up with Industrious. Industrious is an office solution provider that lets you build your office schedule on your own terms.

How to rent a workspace in your area

Are Industrious's workspaces safe?

Of course, everyone is concerned about health and safety more than ever these days — and Industrious is well aware.
