It’s a good time to start a business — not only can you take your ideas more quickly to market, but you can do so at reduced costs and without the traditional barriers in hiring skilled workers. Talented contractors are now available via the “human cloud” and ready to help you build and operate your company. Here’s how small- and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) can benefit from it.
The human cloud is a working platform where staff perform white-collar tasks from any location and on any device. Collaboration, file sharing, or discussions on projects are done in a flexible and productive manner, rewarding team members solely for their output.
Companies looking to take advantage of the human cloud are entitled to the following benefits:
For Chan, the launch of this successful project would not have been possible if it wasn’t for human cloud service and freelancing platform Elance. Elance allowed him to leverage overseas talent and build a solid team of graphic designers, audio/video editors, and writers. All tasks and projects for each issue of his magazine run through the platform, which also conveniently processes payments for his contractors.
As more startups and SMBs become familiar (and comfortable) with the advantages of the human cloud, the future of work means that location is not the most important factor in determining who will contribute to your business’s success. A worldwide network of online contractors is now ready to serve you with the qualifications, skill sets, and shared enthusiasm you seek to turn ideas into valuable products or services.
