Profiting from your unused office space
To rent out empty rooms, turn to local media and Craigslist.
Sherri Birdsall, Gensis Medical Education Consultants, Orange, Calif.
I work for a business that teaches continuing-education courses for nurses in Orange, Calif. Most of our classes are conducted on weekends, which means two beautiful classrooms sit completely unused most of the week. I’d like to rent them out to bring in extra money. Any suggestions on where to start?
