Your sales funnel can only work if you know where your leads are coming from — and how to make the most of each source.
But for many operators, coworking marketplaces, lead gen partners, and even Google Business Profiles feel like a confusing alphabet soup of options. In this episode, I break down the four core lead source categories, demystify the biggest marketplace players, and help you prioritize what's worth your time (and what isn't).
We cover:
-
The four main types of coworking lead sources: organic traffic, member referrals, brokers, and marketplaces
-
What platforms like Deskpass, LiquidSpace, Gable, and Peerspace actually do — and who they're best for
-
Why your Google Business Profile may be your most valuable (and underutilized) lead source
-
The truth about Flexspace.ai, how it works, and how it's not a lead gen platform
-
How to track your lead sources effectively and decide which platforms deserve your attention
If you've ever wondered whether marketplaces are worth it or how to build a lead strategy that actually converts — this episode is your roadmap.
