Every day, more and more people are stepping into the world of self-employment.
There are going to be a few things you need to set up, regardless of whether you’re striking out as a freelancer or setting up the next big tech or service business.
At included.co our job is to make finding business solutions as easy and efficient as possible, and thanks to the shared-buying power of 1,000s of awesome people we even get them cheaper than going direct!
Here’s a few savings to get you off to a flying start:
Whether for just a day or two hot-desking here and there, or for a more full-time workspace solution, joining these communities provide so much more than just somewhere to work from.
The benefits of these communities (as outlined in the video of our founder’s talk in London) cannot be understated.
Statistics show that even freelancers who join them actually generate revenue directly.
The business savings below (and 100+ more) are also included with memberships at our partner communities across the United Kingdom.
Setup: Instant. Sign up fee: Zero.
Getting paid is arguably the whole point of a business, so grab an account that’s setup instantly and only charges 20p per transfer and £1 per ATM withdrawal, with no monthly/annual fees or markups on foreign transactions.
Included members that set up Tide accounts are eligible for a special offer of three months of free transactions (up to 50 transactions).

Having a local number (or 3) is a great way to look established, as well as a good way to separate calls between ‘work’ and ‘personal’. CircleLoop offers instantly-live numbers and even offers a voice-mail option for offline times.
For just £10 p/month (after your free month) you get 3 telephone numbers, a bunch of clever call-handling tech, and outward calls at just 3p p/minute to 39 countries.
Included members get a free month of service after their free-trial.

As with any business, there’s a certain level of risk. But when you’re going solo, the risk of you being unable to work due to illness or theft of your valuable data/devices is even greater. ProfilePI are brokers who offer great coverage, understand coworking spaces, and have been known to shrink insurance costs for all types of businesses, and that’s before the included discount!
With premiums starting at just £220 p/year, and interest-free monthly payment options available, it just makes sense to get covered.
Setup: Under 3 days for your first draft. Sign up fee: Zero.
Getting a logo and business cards designed is one of the first things many founders look for. Usually an expensive and drawn-out process. We’ve signed up an agency-focussed design firm to lock down great rates for business who cowork.
For just $288 you’ll get unlimited revisions, with your first draft in under 3 days from up to 5 designers. And yes, of course you get full copyright ownership too.
Setup: 1 hour. Sign up fee: Zero.
Now that you’ve got awesome cards, with a professional logo, telephone numbers and can charge your clients when you win them… let’s get you some awesome cards to hand out to them.
For £13.99 you get 500 economy (350gsm Silk) business cards, delivered to your desk anywhere in the UK.
But we’re not going anywhere, we’re here to save your business money from start to global domination.
We launched included.co because as entrepreneurs, we needed something like it to exist.
We were sick of wasting time and money setting up, launching, and growing businesses around the world. And so by bringing together the buying-power of 778 coworking communities we unlock economies of scale (and new opportunities) for the whole network.
