The Honest Answer

Bring your essentials: laptop, charger, headphones, and any personal items you need to work comfortably. Lower Lincoln provides the rest, from high-speed Wi-Fi to cold brew coffee.

Pack It Up, Pack It In (Let Me Begin)

Knowing what to pack can make the most of your coworking experience. At Lower Lincoln, you’ll find nearly everything you need for a productive day, but here’s a checklist to ensure you’re fully prepared:

Must-Have Essentials These items are non-negotiable for a productive day at a coworking space.

  • Laptop and Charger: Your main tools of productivity. Don’t forget your accessories, like a wireless mouse or keyboard, if you use them.
  • Headphones: A good pair of noise-canceling headphones can help minimize distractions, allowing you to focus in shared spaces.
  • Notebook and Pen: While many tasks are digital, jotting down ideas or notes by hand can be faster and more intuitive during brainstorming sessions.
  • Personal Chargers: If you carry extra devices like a phone or tablet, bring their chargers to stay powered throughout your day.

Comfort Items Stay comfortable to keep your energy and focus up all day long.

  • Ergonomic Accessories: If you need extra support, bring a small cushion or laptop stand to ensure your workspace is perfectly set up for comfort.
  • Reusable Water Bottle: Keep hydrated throughout the day. Lower Lincoln offers filtered water, so having your water bottle handy is convenient and eco-friendly.
  • Snacks: While Lower Lincoln provides coffee and a stocked kitchenette, packing a few of your favorite snacks ensures you’ll have go-to fuel when hunger strikes.
  • Extra Outfit or Layers: Coworking spaces are climate-controlled, but bringing a sweater or jacket keeps you comfortable during any temperature shifts.

Getting Down to “Business” Depending on your goals or plans for the day, don’t forget these “extras” to make the most of your coworking experience.

  • Presentation Materials: Meeting clients or pitching ideas? Bring printed handouts, a flash drive, or any visual aids to leave a lasting impression.
  • Business Cards: Networking is a key perk of coworking. Keep business cards handy to share your contact info effortlessly.
  • Portable Projector or Clicker: If you’re presenting, a portable projector or slide clicker can add a professional touch.
  • Portfolio or Samples: Showcase your work with a physical portfolio or product samples to wow potential clients or collaborators.
