Run your coworking space like it's 2026.

Practical guides for independent coworking operators — how to manage dedicated desks, handle member holidays, collect payments, and retire the spreadsheet without losing a single booking.

  1. How to Migrate from OfficeRnD to OhMyDesk (2026)

    Switching from OfficeRnD to OhMyDesk no longer means re-keying your member list. A guided importer brings your members, plan assignments (including virtual offices), and invoice history across via a secure read-only API connection. Here's exactly how it works — including the OfficeRnD permissions to enable.

  4. How to Sell Coworking Day Passes (and Monthly Plans) Online Without a Marketplace

  7. The Spreadsheet Problem: Why Running a Coworking Space on Google Sheets Breaks at 10 Desks

    Google Sheets works for a coworking space with 3 members. At 10+ desks it quietly leaks revenue, creates double bookings, and turns the owner into a human API. Here's what actually breaks — and how to fix it.
