  • Streamline internal operations- Space management is a complex job. Struggling to find the ideal real estate and finding the best furniture and fittings was just the beginning. You will need to deal with complaining tenants, collect revenues every month, keep track of your expenses and still ensure profitability. These pose a serious problem when you are already struggling to stay ahead of competitors or expand your business. Having Wehive at your disposal, it will give you the freedom for all these logistical nightmares. Be it member management or managing the seatings. Wehive will allow you to stay on top of things always.
  • Efficient utilisation of resources- One of the biggest challenges with shared resources is that either nobody uses them at all or everybody needs to use them at the same time. With wehive, you can give a handy mobile app to your members that would allow them to see the schedule of the meeting rooms and pre-book them to avoid conflicts. This can also be used to track the member wise usage of the resources.
  • Lead Tracking- Wehive allows you to keep a record of all the visitors that come and visit your co-working space. Wehive’s customisable chat bot allows you to use wehive as a reception app and take information that you need from your prospects. On the panel, you will be able to track and follow up with potential clients without having the need of an additional CRM tool.
  • Your own mini Ecosystem- Wehive allows your residents to get to know about each other’s professions. This opens endless possibilities for them to work together and build their network. The users can create communities and events and interact with each other by chatting or sharing stories. If they need to procure someone’s help, they can look around as one of their colleagues may be doing something similar.
  • Good PR and Branding- The growing healthy community of startup enthusiasts in your co-working space will eventually attract more busy bees to set up their bases at your space. Endorsing your co-working space as a desirable destination for everyone.
  • More value from existing customers- Most of the co-working spaces these days run by offering the shared resources to the customers for a limited period of time only. Once the limit is exhausted the price to book these resources can go up to 20–30 dollars per hour. Wehive automates these bookings for your with an integrated payment gateway that can increase the output of your same old resources by more than 60%, simply with effective scheduling.
  • Maximum customer satisfaction and loyalty- It has been proven that the best kind of marketing is the when your existing customers start bringing in referrals a.k.a the word of mouth marketing. Wehive brings utmost convenience to your customers, they want to outsource some work, they can do it on the app. They want to order food from the cafeteria, they can do it on wehive. They can chat with the manager, report an issue, advertise their product and feel like a family with wehive.
  • Customer Retention- Customer retention is directly proportional to availability of convenient resources, getting more out of their money and it is inversely proportional to restrictive and non-transparent environment where accessing shared resources is a nightmare. Wehive takes care to increase the benefits and take away the evils and thus maximising customer retention.
  • More business through aggregation- Last but not the least, wehive is coming with an aggregation platform, that will provide a rich and meaningful listing of all the co-working spaces. It will allow the users to book co-working spaces from a single unified platform and bring more user traction at your premises.
