Why Remote Work Works

How do you profit—increase your profit—by “letting” your contractor work from a remote site? Personnel or staff expenses eat the lion’s share of any company’s budget. Let’s face it: when you bring in a new employee or a contractor, it’s expensive. Many companies have come to see technical communicators as overhead and have, therefore, out-sourced this support as much as possible. That’s how we fit best.

Look To Your Overhead

The cost of doing business always rises. Almost everything seems to be rising, except profits. Business is all about profit, of course. And, today, your costs grow exponentially due to:

• Commuting & transportation
• Leasing office space
• Purchases or leases of office equipment
• Software license fees
• Staff turnover

We save you money by working for you from our site rather than yours. You don’t have to provide James River Technical Communications with:

• Office or cubicle space
• Telephone and e-mail
• Computer workstations
• Software licenses
• Admin support

You don’t pay us for the time we wait for the equipment or software you’d have to order for a new on-site accession. We go to you for interviews and project meetings and we’re available throughout the day for phone calls or online meetings. We use a common, Citrix-based online meeting tool that eases your work—you won’t have to mess with scheduling the use of your corporate system.

And, you won’t expend any of your resources to support and manage us. We manage ourselves and we deliver your materials on-time and within your budget.

What Do You Provide?

Depending upon the project, you may need to provide us VPN or FTP access to your development system. After all, if we’ll need to see and work with the software or system you’ve hired us to document.

Of course…Some environments require on-site work, and we’re happy to work within that framework, too.
