Remote work is not really a new concept. The 1970s saw a similar adoption of work from home policies, when high gasoline costs caused by the 1973 OPEC oil embargo made commuting increasingly expensive in the United States. People could work from home, coworking spaces, or other community sites like coffee shops and public libraries on a regular part-time or full-time basis, with the assumption that they would return to the workplace on a regular basis. They spent less time commuting and had fewer sick days as a result.
Modern technology enables businesses to bring the same flexibility, efficiency, and more to workplaces today. It continues to prove that geographic proximity is no longer a pre-requisite for producing great work. The benefits of remote work and digital media, have helped us forge a remote marketing team which provides you access to global talent that is fully equipped to deliver extraordinary results, with creative solutions & marketing strategies that resonate with your target audience.
Let’s look at some of the ways your business can gain higher efficiency by working with a remote marketing team.
1. Productive & motivated team
The 2021 State of Remote Work report by Owl Labs, suggests that those who work in an office will stay longer if their management has directly or indirectly requested it. On the other hand, there are remote workers who work longer hours than necessary because they choose to. Remote workers are not only more productive, but also happier, according to research.
Being able to work from anywhere, our remote marketing team has the schedule flexibility, which allows them to not miss out on the precious moments in their personal lives; like school pick-ups, daily errands, or midday exercise without being accused of slacking. As a result, you get increased productivity, improved staff retention, and a greater sense of purpose at work.
2. Production cycle that follows the sun
Agility will remain essential for business growth as the dust settles after the pandemic storm. Meeting consumer demands with processes designed for a slower, simpler era might not be enough. Synchronous communication will need to make room for asynchronous communication, for businesses to be successful today.
In our remote marketing & digital media agency, everyone operates in their own time zones creating a round-the-clock workflow. You stand to benefit from the team’s dynamic abilities, such as clear communication, independent work, and effective time management. This cohesiveness produces outcomes that meet (and when done right, exceed) your business objectives.
3. Cost-efficiency
The traditional hiring model for marketing teams, defies the agility required to stay ahead of the current market dynamics. Not to mention the pain it may cause your business, when you employ the services of a person seemingly good at their job. You risk wasting precious time & money.
When you hire a remote marketing team, you experience savings in not only hiring & training costs, but also in the retention of the said marketing expert. You can be sure that you’ll get the best talent, without paying out the monthly salary, that would otherwise be expected by a full-time employee. The flexibility to be able to work with a marketing team only when needed, is a game-changer for growing businesses.
Above all, modern technology enables us to connect & collaborate like never before. Unlocking opportunities for businesses to scale and grow. It future-proofs your business and significantly reduces stress on the environment. Are you in?
