Description

We're bringing this one back because it's one of our most inspiring episodes. If you haven't met Chiko Abengowe, you're in for a masterclass in scaling coworking with hustle, heart, and zero VC funding. Chiko is the founder and CEO of Perfect Office Solutions, a 20+ location flex brand that's built for affordability, speed, and entrepreneurs who just need space to get to work. We talk about: How Chiko turned $1,000 and a background in staffing into a coworking company serving hundreds of small businesses. The secret behind his "Walmart of coworking" model and why members furnish their own spaces. How he gamifies sales and motivates his team with monthly bonuses and international trips. The art of negotiating leases where landlords cover 100% of the buildout. Why staying lean, scrappy, and mission-driven still wins in a competitive flex market. If you think you need fancy furniture and deep pockets to grow, this episode will challenge everything.
