Brave Ideas Season 17, Episode 6Presented by Flexspace AILearn how Flexspace AI is transforming coworking with their ecommerce revenue platform, featuring SmartPricing Agent, an AI-powered dynamic pricing engine. Tap hereCustomer First, Spreadsheet SecondRoy explains why Tradestars reversed the traditional real estate process, starting with what founders and business owners actually need, then working back to the spreadsheet, instead of beginning with NIA, GIA, and rent maximisation.In this episode of Brave Ideas, Caleb Parker and cohost Eyal Lasker , CEO at Flexspace AI, are joined by Roy Shaby, Founder and CEO of Tradestars, for a conversation on how social commerce is creating a new category of workspace demand.Roy has one of the most entrepreneurial stories of the season. He started with a sushi delivery business run out of a rented kebab shop kitchen, turned that into one of London’s early dark kitchen businesses, then went on to cofound FoodStars, which was later acquired by Travis Kalanick’s (former Uber Founder/CEO) CloudKitchens business.Today, he is applying that same entrepreneurial lens to real estate through Tradestars.Tradestars provides offline space for online businesses, from TikTok sellers and social commerce brands to barbers, tattoo artists, beauty entrepreneurs, production companies, and digital first operators. These are not traditional office occupiers, but they are not traditional retailers either. They no longer rely on retail footfall, but still need functional, social media ready, brandable space shaped around content, community, logistics, production, client experience, and online customer acquisition.Caleb, Roy, and Eyal unpack how Tradestars turns distressed and underused buildings into operational hubs for the TikTok economy. Instead of starting with a spreadsheet and forcing customers into the asset, Roy explains how Tradestars starts with the end user, then reverse engineers the real estate model around how those businesses actually operate.They also discuss development costs, occupancy, churn, retention, customer acquisition, community, data, and why the rise of social commerce could become a meaningful force in the future of workspace.Listen to the full episode to hear how Tradestars built workspace for the TikTok economy, and what landlords, investors, and operators can learn from a model that sits somewhere between coworking, light industrial, retail, production, and hospitality.🎧 To listen as a podcast FOR FREE switch to audio above,or follow Brave Ideas on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you listen.What You’ll Learn in This Episode* How Roy went from running a sushi delivery business out of a kebab shop kitchen to building one of London’s early dark kitchen businesses* Why FoodStars became an early dark kitchen platform before “dark kitchens” were even a widely used term* How the FoodStars journey led to an acquisition by Travis Kalanick’s CloudKitchens* Why Tradestars was created for online entrepreneurs who still need high-quality offline operational space* How TikTok sellers, barbers, tattoo artists, beauty entrepreneurs, and production companies are changing the demand profile for real estate* Why social commerce businesses need workspace that supports content, logistics, client experience, and brand presentation* How Tradestars starts with the end user first, then reverse engineers the real estate model around that customer* How distressed and underused buildings can be repositioned into high-energy operational hubs* Why product quality matters, and how Tradestars claims to reduce development cost without compromising the customer experience* How Tradestars thinks about occupancy, churn, retention, and customer growth* Why community is not just a soft benefit, but a driver of stickiness and collaboration* How data science, CRM analysis, and marketing performance shape customer acquisition* Why the TikTok economy could become a serious demand driver for new workspace formatsKey Takeaways for Operators* The TikTok economy still needs physical space.Digital first businesses may acquire customers online, but many still need studios, production space, treatment rooms, logistics support, meeting rooms, and professional environments where they can serve clients and create content.* Start with the customer, not the spreadsheet.Roy makes a direct point that Tradestars reversed the traditional real estate process. Instead of starting with net internal area, gross area, and rent maximisation, the model began with what the entrepreneur actually needs, then worked back to the underwriting.* Different entrepreneurs need different workspace products.Tradestars is not traditional coworking, but many of the same Space as a Service principles apply.
