The theory

Understanding the Revenue Mix.

Co-living and Co-working attract different customer types and generate revenue in different ways. Co-living provides stable, long-term revenue from residents, while co-working provides more flexible, shorter-term revenue from members and day-pass users.

/ Formula

This analyzer helps you visualize which side of your business is currently more powerful. A business with 80% of its revenue from co-living is fundamentally a residential business with a workspace amenity. A business with 80% from co-working is a workspace provider that happens to offer accommodation.

Co-Living % = (Co-Living Revenue / Total Revenue) × 100
/ Industry standard

Understanding your primary revenue driver is the first step in creating a focused business strategy, from marketing and sales to operations and future investment.

Questions, answered

Frequently asked questions.

Co-living revenue typically comes from residents on longer-term agreements (e.g., monthly or longer), and it implies access to shared community spaces like kitchens and lounges. Standard hotel stays are much shorter-term. This tool is specifically for comparing the long-term residential component vs. the workspace component.
Yes. 'Co-Working Revenue' should encompass all revenue generated from your workspace offerings. This includes memberships, day passes, meeting room rentals, and any other services sold to non-residents who are using the space to work.
No, this is strictly a revenue analyzer. To understand profitability, you would need to conduct a separate analysis comparing the costs (e.g., housekeeping, community management, utilities) associated with each revenue stream.
A 50/50 balance can be very strong, as it indicates a truly 'hybrid' model with diversified revenue. However, it can also create strategic challenges (e.g., who do you market to?). The 'ideal' balance depends on your profitability. If co-working has much higher profit margins, you might want to grow that side of the business more aggressively.
If co-working is lower, market 'work passes' to your co-living residents' guests or to the local community. If co-living is lower, create 'live and work' packages that offer a bundled discount on a long-term stay and a coworking membership, targeting remote workers and digital nomads.
