Freedom To Work Anywhere
With many years experience of climbing corporate ladders and increasing our earning capacity
, my partner and I were both frustrated with the confines of working in an office despite the personal success that we both achieved.Both exhibiting entrepreneurial thinking and having an adventurous zest for life, we both knew we wanted to do it our way and prove that it can work. We had hit many brick walls in our time with people laughing at our suggestions that there is a better way of living but as with everything in life, you have to lead the way for people to open their minds.
We have taken it upon ourselves to prove that thinking outside the box really can provide the freedom to choose the path you want in life, working from anywhere and enjoying all the things you wished you could do when you are daydreaming from the office.
We wanted to cruise around Thailand on a scooter down to the pristine beaches for a swim, and then lay in a hammock in the afternoon breeze all during business hours when we decided.
So we embarked on the quest to this freedom of choice to work the hours we wanted, anywhere in the world.
With our combined expertise from previous experiences we were easily able to start an online marketing business that soon jumped from small to big almost overnight. We knew that the work involved to maintain and increase our reach in the marketplace was beyond the manpower of two people.
We searched for many outsourcing options available online as we didnt want the overheads of hiring and retaining staff ourselves. The goal was freedom to work anywhere and outsourcing was going to provide us the much needed help we required.
After finding Elance on the internet, it met all our requirements and soon enough we started testing the waters with a few jobs to test the quality and process behind it. We were impressed. Not only did we get choice of bidders and profile history of work examples, we also controlled our budget that from our corporate experience doesnt always go to plan in the real world.
We needed concept designs completed quickly for a project and received these from our resource within 24 hours of approving them for our project. It meant that while we were both fast paced workers that really only wanted to work an hour or two a day but be as productive as possible, we now had a way to make this dream a reality.
After fine tuning our own business processes and identifying the parts that we could easily outsource to make our business a well oiled machine we began the exciting process of outsourcing.
Outsourcing provided the ability to multiply faster than ever. We were achieving previously at a pretty impressive rate due to the nature of our business but after taking the much needed step to outsourcing, we could get more done, faster. This meant we managed our resources and we were free to explore further business opportunities and networks and most of all, we no longer needed the salary from the corporate companies we once worked for and this time we had control and freedom to earn and live how we chose.
Elance also provided us with versatility of skills and resources globally. We work with many resources scattered all around the globe and this helped achieve something else for us.
Another goal we had set for ourselves was that whatever freedom of living we could afford for ourselves, we both knew it had to be for a great reason. We both wanted to contribute to the world in a positive way. We wanted to create a legacy of giving. This meant that we were now able to employ professional contractors but also students who were looking to support themselves with extra work by using the skills they had developed. Sometimes in business you are forced to hire just one resource when you might meet three or four that you wish you could work with. People with valuable skills that you want to provide opportunity to enhance their skills and confidence as professionals.
With Elance we could provide this opportunity and we could give people that were just starting off a go. With the speed of delivery of work, timezone differences meant that when we got up in the morning, the work was completed that we sent the night before and this was a very compelling reason to keep using the skills network we had now created.
Overall, this New Way To Work concept has provided the business growth that my partner and I had envisaged and set for ourselves. Daring to try what many businesses say is unconventional or too risky we have proven it can and does work. How do I know this? Because my partner and I are currently sitting in hammocks in Thailand while I write this article and we literally couldnt be happier with the successful online business we have built and the opportunities we now have in our lives.
Time we have now bought ourselves to achieve childhood dreams anywhere in the world and contribute to the world with all the knowledge and expertise we have built for ourselves.
To anyone that will listen, my partner and I share everything we can about what we do and how we do it. In the meantime, we will keep crossing off goals on our bucket lists.
Knowledge is power but freedom is sharing. The New Way To Work will provide the freedom to work anywhere and often I find myself talking to old colleagues from the corporate giants I have worked for and sharing this valuable information. You can have what you want in life, if you just open up your mind and use the skills that you have to become the best person you can be. You can be the CEO of your life and you can live the life you want, with THE NEW WAY TO WORK.
If you want something you have never had, you have to do something you have never done. Dr Shaun Marler
