How can a small business community like Hub help my business grow?

This is a common question many business owners ask before making the decision to joining Hub’s coworking business community.

An ever-expanding network can help you successfully grow your small business, providing access to new experts, assets, events, and more. We talked to our members to find ways a business community like Hub’s has helped small businesses grow.

1. Community and collaboration

The best part about joining Hub is the sense of community, being surrounded by like-minded professionals with plenty of opportunities for collaboration and social fun.

At Hub, you can be surrounded by a community full of entrepreneurs, experts, business owners, professionals, and more. All it takes is striking up a conversation at the on-site café, reaching out in your community Facebook group, or sharing some of your interests in your dedicated Slack channel.

2. Gain knowledge & experience

“It’s great be around other entrepreneurial businesses and access Hub’s modern facilities and collaborative spaces.”
– Tom Shaw, Equiteq

Hub Australia has committed community leads and a member experience team, working each day to ensure members have access to amazing events, experiences, and connection opportunities.

With professional development events on a diverse range of topics, from tax to HR, Hub offers regular opportunities to grow your knowledge through your membership.

3. Flexibility

“I really appreciate the flexibility of being able to move into bigger offices as our team grows.”
– Tristram Morgan, 365 Solutions Group

Hub Australia not only fosters connections and growth for members, whether small businesses or large, but also supports you throughout your growth. With flexible terms, offices, suites, and flexible memberships, Hub’s memberships can be adjusted to create a custom plan that is perfect to accommodate your growing business and team.

4. Support

“Hub is a great place to work. Members go above and beyond to lend a hand, and there’s never a shortage of friendly faces to chat to or enjoy a beer with!”
– Harrison Uffindell, Tilt

At Hub, dedicated community leads are always ready to connect members to others in their community that can help support their small business goals. Whether you’re looking for marketing help, a tech specialist, or a mentor who has similar experience to you, Hub’s team go above and beyond to help connect members.

5. Productivity

“Coming from other coworking spaces, I find Hub to be a far friendlier and more professional environment. Since moving to Hub, my team’s productivity has increased many times over.”
– Chris Farley, PKCG

Whether you’re a small business with a team of three or a large business managing a team of thirty, Hub has the ideal space for you, designed to help you work productively, accessing the best in amenity, service, and technology.
