School’s Out Special!

Working from home can be tough for anyone, but it can be particularly challenging for you working parents when the kids are home on summer vacation. Suddenly attempting to work towards a deadline is now butting heads with your preference to sit on the back stoop and eat popsicles with the kids. While great and fun, it’s not making your clients very happy. This is a new breed of challenge, and needs to be met with a change of scene. For all of you parents working from home who need a spot to sit down, get work done, and have a great work environment, Office Nomads is here for you.  And don’t worry, you can still eat popsicles while you work. Just show us your kid’s latest report card and we’ll show you a week free at Office Nomads!

“I’m so happy to have a space I can escape to without smelling
like a mocha the rest of the day.” – Member Ruth McKinnie

What is Office Nomads?:

Office Nomads is a coworking space situated smack dab in the middle of Capitol Hill.

That means we’re a place where indie-pros, freelancers and entrepreneurs can go to escape the mind-numbing isolation of working from home…and rejoin the human race…and ramp up productivity in a comfortable, friendly and creative space.

Or, as our first monthly member, Chris Haddad, likes to say, Office Nomads is a place where you can “put on some damn pants and get to work.”

Here’s how it works:

At Office Nomads we’ve got space, and we’re looking for cool, passionate independent workers to fill it.

We provide:

  • Desks with plenty of space to lay out your work. If you’re a daily drop in, you’ll just grab an empty desk…but as a monthly member you can claim your own little piece of Office Nomads and leave as much or as little of your work stuff here as you need.
  • High-speed internet access. We’ve got wireless throughout the whole space, but if you need a little more “umph” you can plug right in via Ethernet.
  • Conference rooms. Need to hold a meeting or just need a quiet place for a phone call? We’ve got 3 fully decked out conference rooms members can reserve at no additional charge.
  • A Full Kitchen where you can store your sandwich, your ice cream or your beer.
  • Comfy desk chairs. Or, if you prefer, big inflatable exercise balls.
  • The Office Nomads water cooler. Because hydration is important. And because you need somewhere to have those deep Monday morning conversations.
  • Unlimited network printing and fax at no additional charge. We’ve seen other office spaces charge by the minute or by the page. We don’t roll that way. As long as you’re reasonable you can print or fax all you want at no additional charge.
  • Ridiculously cozy couches for lounging, brainstorming or (and this is popular around here) napping.
  • A community of really cool people who are doing really cool things… People like Ryan Salva of Capitol Media, Ron Theis of Ridiculous Software, and Charles Redell to name a few…
  • A dog-friendly atmosphere (as long as your dog is friendly too). Cortez and Stella, the two dogs who currently make ON their daytime home have been a big hit. If you’ve got a Best Friend you can’t stand to leave at home all day, don’t worry. As long as your pooch can hang well with others we’re happy to have him (or her, as the case may be).
  • A dead simple simple pricing structure that encourages you to use the space…and that actually makes sense. At ON we keep our pricing as simple as humanly possible. And it’s not because we’re bad at math (we’re actually very good at math). It’s because we want you to enjoy your time here, use the space and not worry about getting nickel and dimed every time you do something. Just pay your daily or monthly fee and you’re done.

And a whole lot more.  You should come down to 1617 Boylston Ave. in Capitol Hill and join us for a day to see what we’re all about.
