Seamless Space Booking & Growth Hub for CoWork

Unlocking Effortless Flow: Building a Community Hub for CoWork

At Spark & Thrive, we believe that inspiring workspaces should be easy to access and even easier to manage! We had the pleasure of partnering with CoWork, a truly vibrant and community-focused co-working space nestled in the bustling Condesa neighborhood of Mexico City. Founded by the visionary Mariana Flores, CoWork had quickly become a beloved hub for freelancers, startups, and remote professionals seeking inspiring and flexible work environments.

Their beautiful spaces and strong community were their biggest assets, but the manual effort behind managing daily bookings, payments, and notifications was becoming a significant hurdle to their growth.

The Challenge: Manual Hurdles in a Fast-Paced Work Environment

As CoWork’s popularity soared, Mariana and her team found themselves caught in a whirlwind of administrative tasks. They faced common operational challenges like:

• Time-Consuming Bookings: Members would call or email to check availability, leading to constant back-and-forth communication.
• Payment & Notification Chaos: Sending invoices, chasing payments, and ensuring everyone received timely booking confirmations and reminders was a daily, often error-prone, juggle.
• Calendar Conflicts: Manually updating calendars and avoiding double-bookings felt like a full-time job in itself.
• Distracted Team: Staff were spending precious hours on repetitive admin, diverting focus from fostering the thriving community that made CoWork truly special.

Mariana envisioned CoWork being known for its seamless member experience and vibrant community, not its administrative hiccups. She needed an automated system that could handle the operational side effortlessly, allowing her team to focus on building those valuable connections.
