Our hello@does email address often has similar sort of questions asked, this page contains some template answers that can be tailored to fit.

This page is a Work In Progress and needs lots more examples and review.

1. I would like a desk at does

Yes we can certainly help. Our rates depend a bit on what you need, there’s three options depending on how often you’ll be in and whether you want an assigned desk or just want to hot desk.

I’ll start at the top - for £175/month you can have an assigned desk, this desk would then only be used by you and you’re welcome to leave things behind, monitor, keyboard, plants, etc.! I’ll mention out of hours access shortly, but essentially if you have the assigned desk you can come in any time to use the desk or workshop and basically wouldn’t have to pay anything more.

Besides that we have our hot desking options, with these you won’t have any guarantee that you will get the same desk on each visit and we would ask that you clear the desk at the end of the day. You can pay £80/month for this or £12/day, the day rate can be brought down to £10/day if you pay £10/month for membership. We don’t set limits on the £80/month option but if you came in all day every day we would suggest that you would be better going for an assigned desk.

Our standard office hours are 9:30-5:30 Monday - Friday. If you did go for the assigned desk option then you can pay an additional £50 returnable deposit to get “out of hours” access, which means you can then come in any time, 24/7.

We have space available at the moment so I’d recommend you come in and take a look. We offer your first day free if you bring cake or snacks to share so that’s a great way to give us a try and see if our space will work for you.

If you have any more questions just ask,

2. Can you <make something or otherwise do something that I need>?

Ironically DoES doesn't really do things for you, we provide a space in which you can do the things for yourself. Would you like me to post your request on our mailing list to see if one of our members would be interested in doing the job for you?

(Really we should offer to help them do it themselves more in this example)

3. I would like a mailbox

Just a little info before you get set up, as well as what we need from you.

Our mailbox service allows you to use our address for your business purposes, such as HMRC and Companies House. We'll store any mail that we receive until you are able to collect. We generally ask that it is only used for letters as we do not have a huge amount of storage for parcels, but if you are expecting something larger, just let us know.

Cost is £149 per year, or £15 a month. There is no contract, so if you do not want to continue with the service just let us know and we'll cancel any recurring invoices.

To set up, you simply confirm the email I should send an invoice to and, once you've paid, you're ready to go!

If you have any further questions, please just ask,
