Why oDesk?
A recent study found that the number of people working remotely rose from 28.7 million Americans in 2006 to 33.7 million in 2008, a 17 percent jump.
The first question is, why remote workteams?
The best person to do your job has never necessarily been the one living in your area. The Internet lets businesses tap a global labor pool in response to heightened competitive pressures.
The Challenge
In today's fast-paced global economy, businesses of all sizes face several challenges:
- How to get more done with less
- How to find the talent they need — with the right skills and able to flexibly scale up or down as needed
- How to effectively manage that talent
- How to pay a remote team without added paperwork headaches
Talented professionals also face challenges:
- How to find meaningful work opportunities
- How to work effectively with a remote client
- How to ensure payment is received on time
- How to minimize the effort to find work, so they can maximize the time spent doing work
