## DP Testimonials

- [Ben Culbreth](https://soco-work.com/dipl-testimonial/ben-culbreth/) - Having 24/7 access to these spaces lets me do my best work. Whether it’s late at night or early in the morning, I can just pop in and get to work. And honestly, these spaces are some of the coolest and most inspiring places to work in Columbia.
- [Professional Presence](https://soco-work.com/dipl-testimonial/professional-presence/) - Having a legit business address makes all the difference! The mailing service is super easy to use, and it’s helped my brand feel more established. I highly recommend it for anyone looking to up their business game.
- [Jada Willis](https://soco-work.com/dipl-testimonial/jada-willis/) - The team here is incredibly helpful, and the meeting rooms are always perfectly set up. I love that they even offer extras like snack boxes as an add-on to impress my clients. It’s the little details that make a big difference.
- [Ley Linder](https://soco-work.com/dipl-testimonial/ley-linder/) - The BEST three hours of my month
- [Kim Andrews](https://soco-work.com/dipl-testimonial/kim-andrews/) - I love the coworking membership. The 24/7 access is a game-changer, and the community here is so welcoming. I’ve made connections that have helped me both at work and in life. It’s honestly the best decision I’ve made for my work-life balance.
- [Markel Samuel](https://soco-work.com/dipl-testimonial/markel-samuel/) - I can’t say enough good things about my private office. From day one, I stepped in and got straight to work. My logo was even on the door already—it felt like it was truly mine from the start!
- [Christina Goodman](https://soco-work.com/dipl-testimonial/christina-goodman/) - SOCO’s got everything I need to stay productive—supplies, printing, and, of course, bottomless decaf coffee. I don’t have to think about anything except getting my work done. It’s like they’ve thought of everything, so I don’t have to.
- [Kim Levengood Andrews](https://soco-work.com/dipl-testimonial/kim-levengood-andrews/) - I love the coworking membership. The 24/7 access is a game-changer, and the community here is so welcoming. I’ve made connections that have helped me both at work and in life. It’s honestly the best decision I’ve made for my work-life balance.
- [Elissa Macarin](https://soco-work.com/dipl-testimonial/elissa-macarin/) - What I really love about SOCO is how much they care about the community. The staff is always there to help, say hello to you by name and introduce you to other members. It’s more than just a workspace—it feels like I’m part of something bigger.
- [Luis Angel Hernandez Manuel](https://soco-work.com/dipl-testimonial/luis-angel-hernandez-manuel/) - The dedicated desk option has been a total win for me. I’ve got my own spot that’s always ready for me, but I’m still part of the coworking community. The meeting room hours built into my membership and other amenities made it a no brainer.
- [Ley Linder, CEO, Crescent Behavioral Health](https://soco-work.com/dipl-testimonial/ley-linder-ceo-crescent-behavioral-health/) - We all work in the field a lot so we don’t see each other much. Keeping the team connected and growing our culture are important, so we meet at SOCO in person every month to make sure the human connection stays front and center in our culture.
- [Eva Foussat, Eva Foussat Creative](https://soco-work.com/dipl-testimonial/eva-foussat-eva-foussat-creative/) - I run a creative agency. There’s nothing worse than a crowded, noisy coffee shop when you’re trying to connect with and close a new client. When I want to be a big girl professional, I book those meetings at SOCO.
- [Jada Willis, Jada Willis Consulting](https://soco-work.com/dipl-testimonial/jada-willis-jada-willis-consulting/) - Every year, when planning time rolls around we always book a few days at SOCO with our coaching clients as a sort of “staycation planning retreat”. The energy, vibe and hospitality really helps me and the entire team get in the right mindset and we always leave energized and ready to tackle what’s next.
- [Pat McGinnis, HLC Bicycles](https://soco-work.com/dipl-testimonial/pat-mcginnis-hlc-bicycles/) - We operate globally and have suppliers and partners from all over come in. When they do, we book meetings and workspace at SOCO. The spaces are centrally located, super convenient to downtown amenities and it’s a nice way to show our clients and partners we care.
- [Ben Culbreth, Culbreth Copywriting](https://soco-work.com/dipl-testimonial/ben-culbreth-culbreth-copywriting/) - I do creative work and sometimes my home office can just be one giant distraction. So, when I need to do deep work, I book a day pass and a meeting room at SOCO. It’s a really unique combination of inspiring spaces and tons of amenities. I close the door and jump on a whiteboard
