WorkReady Suites: How You Can Help Clients Grow

On February 19th, we had an opportunity to tour over 100 of our local Washington area brokers through our beautiful WorkReady Suites at the Willard. To date, 7 suites have been sold and 5 clients have opted to take a service package from Carr Workplaces which has enhanced the revenue stream for the Willard Center. 42 percent of the WorkReady Suites clients were Willard Carr Workplaces clients who opted to “grow” into our new WorkReady Suites product.

WorkReady Suites is revolutionary as it is designed to meet the demand of businesses of all sizes looking to grow more quickly and efficiently with space that is ready immediately. Time is money for any business. By eliminating start-up capital, rigid long-term leases, and expensive infrastructure costs, WorkReady Suites clients are able to not only save money over conventional real estate options, but they can also begin work immediately in the pre-built, pre-wired suites. More importantly, these clients become a part of our Carr Workplaces community where they will have access to our loyalty program, special discounts, and member rates on our services.

Within the next 30 days, you will receive information about how to order marketing collateral that can be shared with your existing client base – our best candidates for WorkReady Suites. We have found that this new product resonates with our existing clients as they already have an understanding of our level of service and the value proposition by having Carr Workplaces handle the ‘details’. Going forward, it will be exceptionally important for us to have a keen understanding of our client’s needs and growth plans for the future so we can proactively offer the option of a WorkReady Suite. This will offer our centers the opportunity to earn additional revenue from a referral fee that the building owner will pay us as well as on-going service revenue from furniture rental, IT & telephony and numerous other ancillary services.

"WorkReady Suites are a great addition to our ever expanding product list which will enable us to support the needs of our clients from the inception of their company, through growth for the long term."
