Do you have to hire the desk for a certain length of time? Can you afford to do that if you don't have many customers? Do your research.

Good luck with it. I got to a hair salon where they rent out space. They all get on well and it seems to work well. It would be murder if there was one of them that didn't agree with how things were run.
